The Federal Reserve Bank is not federal.

 The Federal Reserve Bank has no reserves.

 The Federal Reserve Bank is not a bank.

     The Fed is the most blatant scam in history.

Well I know variable loans are adjusting in July, so maybe they will blip up, I heard a rumor today...no rate hikes at all this year.

Raise them up...they have waited & waited. Its their turn

Yawn!!  Another 25 basis points? So the rate then will be 4% for Jumbo or 4.5% for conforming. Where's Chicken little when you need him!

Que Sera Sera, beyond my ability to change or control

They have been so low for so long is it a surprise they will nove upward? No!!

I have no crystal ball. Interest rates have been held artificially low for years now... at some point they will go up.

it's time for them to go up ... nothing drastic will happen....

Fred Griffin once again beats me to the punch LOL

I hate to say it but, they need to go up - I just don't see it going above 5% by the year's end though. There's my 'prediction' for what it's worth!

This is when the politics of manipulating the economy will shine. An upward increase may make President Trump look too good while no movement will underscore the perception that the sky is falling. C'mon Chicken Little get it in gear!

I don't get alarmed by them like I used to. I believe the public has turned a blind eye so think it will have very little impact on the market.

Smart consumers have already taken advantage of the low mortgage interest rates.

As Fred Griffin wrote. No argument from me!

Sam Shueh I think I'll just wait for 2:30 p.m. to roll around.

here we go again

Thanks for sharing

I don't think it will make any difference whether they do or don't.

I typically don't spend much time on those things where I have no control. The interest rates have been low for years so an increase would not be a surprise.   

I don't know, but consensus estimates are two more for this year.

We will see some necessary increases continue in the future. Interest rates have been artificially low for too long. 

Dorie Dillard nailed this one!

I will deal with whatever the results are.

Sam,

We shall see, what I think does not have one ounce of influence on the Federal Reserve. A

Sam Shueh - as long as this 'move' makes buyers to buy the home and sellers to sell the home, I am fine...

I believe that we will see 2  1/4 point changes up.Housing prices riasing very very quickly and not really sustainable.  Need to do something

I do not think things are as strong over all as the markets would make most think. WIll they raise rate to hurt the markets and punish Trump? Or will they be neutral and keep things steady as they go?

Luckily, it has not affected housing interest rates yet.

I do not think anything changed today. A small increase will unlikely make any difference. 

Honestly, I thnk interest rates have been artificially low for a long, long time. I think them raising slightly may slow down the market and stabilize it a bit, or even correct it a bit.  Prices are above 2007 peak prices here and I just don't think it's sustainable. -Kasey

No opinion.

I suspect they will continue to raise them until such a time as they need to lower them to jumpstart the economy.

I can not wait that long. 

It will be interesting to see what happens.
