Fed Cuts Rate for the First Time in 11 Years

Fed Cuts Rate for the First Time in 11 Years

The Federal Reserve decided to lower its target interest rate to the range of 2% to 2.25%, down from a range of 2.25% to 2.50%. It is the first rate cut since December 2008, at the beginning of the Great Recession. The move was spurred by concerns about a slowing global economy. The Fed’s rate is tied to most other consumer credit interest rates and will likely put downward pressure on long-term mortgage rates.
