“Some of the language in [the Federal Reserve’s most recent] statement indicated that the economy is in a strong place, but progress on inflation has stalled in recent months. The Fed’s message could be summarized in that they will cut rates when the data warrants. Thus far cuts have not been warranted.
I would expect rate changes on long- and-short term CD’s to be minimal after [the] announcement, but once we have a hint that cuts are closer to the horizon we would expect short term rates to fall first.”

“Short-term and longer-term CD rates should see little to no change.… If you feel rates are going to be heading lower in the near to mid-term it may make sense to lock in for today’s rates for longer. With the Fed decision [in early May], you have a little while to make this assessment for your situation.”
