Fed Rate Cut Impact

Sep 26, 2024

The Fed cut interest rates by 0.5% - the first decrease in four years.

Why Should You Care?

This rate cut is like a shot of espresso for the economy. It's designed to make borrowing cheaper and encourage spending. For small businesses like yours, this could mean:

1. Cheaper loans: Think of it as a sale on money. Now might be the time if you've been eyeing that new equipment or considering expansion.

2. More customer spending: People tend to spend more when borrowing gets cheaper. That could mean more customers walking through your door (or clicking on your website).

3. Economic growth: They aim for sustained economic growth without the hangover of high inflation.

How Does This Affect Your Holdings Account?

We're adjusting our interest rate to 4% APY because we offer you a competitive rate while staying in tune with the broader economic changes.

We're committed to helping your money work as hard as you do. We're not just here to hold your money but to help it grow. This rate change reminds us why we built Holdings: to give businesses like yours the financial tools and insights to thrive in any economic climate.
