CD Rates Poised to Climb Higher in November if Fed Raises Interest Rates Again
-
CD rates could increase in November depending on the Federal Reserve's upcoming meeting and decision on interest rates.
-
Higher interest rates from the Fed over the past year have already resulted in higher CD rates.
-
As of September 2022, the average 1-year CD rate was 1.89%, much higher than 0.14% in January 2022.
-
If the Fed raises rates at their late October meeting, CD rates will likely also increase. If rates stay the same, CD rates may not change much.
-
Now is a good time to lock in a CD and take advantage of relatively high interest rates, but don't deposit money you may need access to since CDs have penalties for early withdrawal.
