Future Outlook is Uncertain
The plan for 2018 is for four interest rate hikes according to the Federal Reserve Chairmain, Jerome H. Powell. As of June 2018, we have experienced two of those hikes, with the SWAP rate up to 3%. The U.S. hasn't seen a rate at 2% since 2008, following the Great Recession. Looking ahead, the Fed has hinted at an even more aggressive pace in the coming years to keep the economy from overheating. In fact, according to Economist Ernie Goss, the economy will be tested in times ahead as potential trade wars contribute to slow growth and higher prices for inputs, thereby pushing the Federal Reserve to be more aggressive in raising interest rates.
