Is it a “skip” or a “pause”? Federal Reserve won’t likely raise rates next week but maybe next month. – The Denver Post

By CHRISTOPHER RUGABER (AP Economics Writer) WASHINGTON (AP) — Don’t call it a “pause.” When the Federal Reserve meets next week, it is widely expected to leave interest rates alone — after 10 straight meetings in which it has jacked up its key rate to fight inflation. But what might otherwise be seen as a “pause” will likely be characterized instead as a “skip.” The difference? A “pause” might suggest that the Fed may not raise its benchmark rate again. A “skip” implies that it probably will — just not now. The purpose…

Is the Federal Reserve Done Raising Interest Rates?

While we know just about everything there is about this device, the Chinese company has yet to reveal its price (and that’s kinda important). Well, we know one price; you can reserve the OnePlus Pad for $99, according to XDA Developers.So, it sounds weird that you would drop $99 just to set aside one of these tablets, but there’s a perk to reserving one. The OnePlus has two accessories that you can add on. One is…

The Federal Reserve is raising interest rates again. What does that mean for banks?

Wednesday, the Federal Reserve announced that it intends to raise interest rates by another quarter of a percentage point in its latest bid to curb inflation. It’s a somewhat contentious move given the recent banking failures the US has experienced, and some economists fear that higher interest rates could further weaken the financial sector. Those in favor, however, argued the hike would show the banking sector is stable enough to handle higher rates. Additionally, the Fed has long been under pressure to do more to…

Federal Reserve Faces Tough Decision on Rate Increase

Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell and his colleagues this week face one of their toughest calls in years: whether to raise interest rates again to fight stubbornly high inflation or take a timeout amid the most intense banking crisis since 2008. The decision over whether to raise interest rates by a quarter-percentage point is likely to hinge in part on how markets digest the forced marriage Sunday of two Swiss banking giants, UBS and…
