How high will interest rates get in 2022?

Published

The world is grappling with the rising cost of living, but exactly how long will the price hikes continue?

On a global scale, the economy is still trying to cope with the ongoing fallout from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

And on top of that, China’s ongoing covid lockdowns are impacting global trade. This has sent the price of necessities skyrocketing, with groceries and petrol prices hurting the back pocket.

The key U-S banking authority just gave the public an insight into its state of mind, releasing minutes from the latest policy meeting.

The Federal Reserve has indicated that interest rate hikes could go higher than anticipated in an attempt to cool inflation.

Officials have confirmed they are willing to go ahead with multiple 50 basis points rate increases.

The new data shows that there is some hope when it comes to cooling inflation, but also clearly shows there’s skepticism about financial stability.

Went we look at housing, sales of new houses have declined by approximately 16%, with many concerned that buying a house is simply out of reach for people right now.

This is, of course, on top of sky-high petrol prices, groceries, and minimum wages.

“For many Americans, housing is now out of reach… Houses are very expensive… It’s having an affect on home owners and home renters”
