As Fed Ponders Rates, Several Moves Consumers Should Think About

The Fed recently ended its usual Open Market Committee meeting, and the Fed continued intimating that rates will be rising soon. The term "soon" doesn't mean tomorrow, but more importantly, it is bracing everyone to get ready for the changes that are going to come.

And what are those changes coming, you may ask? Higher interest rates. Teresa Dixon Murray wrote an excellent article highlighting 6 moves consumers should start thinking about and how it may affect them coming up in the near term.

The list is excellent is worthy of a full read. But here's two points that Murray points out:

Mortgage rates will increase:
Rates remain ridiculously low, at 4.1 percent last week. The Fed doesn't directly control mortgage rates but as the Fed pulls back buying mortgage investments and as it prepares to hike base rates, mortgage rates are sure to rise. The next few months could be your last chance to refinance at the bottom

....

Credit card rates will jump:
Under the Credit Card Accountability Responsibility and Disclosure Act of 2009, banks and other card issuers cannot raise rates like they used to, based on their mood, the weather or their desire to make more money. However, credit card issuers can raise rates that are tied to a benchmark rate if that benchmark increases. So when prime increases, rates tied to prime will increase.

Mixed Emotions Coming From Fed

While middle America and consumers continue to fight and claw through today's economic times, the Fed has grown increasingly aggressive in its tone, but the official voice of Janet Yellen, the Fed Chair, hasn't made an inkling into her actual thoughts.

From CNBC's Patti Domm:

But the Fed broke new ground with its July meeting minutes, signaling that it is thinking about a return to normalcy and potential policy paths to get there. It noted that both employment and inflation are moving closer to mandated goals.

"The biggest thing that was hawkish was they've all been surprised on the upside with how rapidly the labor market has improved," said Mesirow Financial chief economist Diane Swonk. "There is also a split among them about whether wages are accelerating. The staff report says no, but certain regions are saying maybe they are."

The biggest take away that Spartan Credit Advisors has for people is to TAKE ADVANTAGE of the current products and offerings before the current situation changes. If rates rise, credit and your money power will diminish.
