Current Savings Rates and Money Market Rates 10/15/13Savings rates and money market rates have been stable the past month as there have been no real changes in average rates and the best available rates. This is unlike short term bond rates which have gone through the roof the past month on fears of a debt default by the United States. 1 month U.S. bond rates soared from .001 percent in late September to 0.27 percent last week. Surprisingly, in the past week, rates have come down somewhat even though a debt deal hasn't been reached yet. During the past month, the best savings rates available in our rate database remain at 1.00 percent. The best money market account rates also remain unchanged at 0.90 percent this month. Savings account rates, money market rates, and CD rates will pretty much remain near current levels for now. These rates won't move higher until the Federal Open Market Committee increases the federal funds rate. We don't expect an increase in the federal funds rate until sometime in mid 2014. Unfortunately, this means deposit rates won't move higher anytime in 2013 and probably won't move higher until the summer or fall of 2014. We are all eagerly awaiting higher interest rates after more than 5 years of low rates. Average Savings Rates/Money Market Rates
