I understand the Fed moved the overnight rate up to 25 basis points. It isn't going to last. Rates are going to stay low for the foreseeable future for a laundry list of macro economic reasons -- the easiest to cover is the USA cannot afford to raise rates as it will increase the global consolidation of capital in the US causing severe issues for EU and AP regional (bond primarily) markets. The yield of the 10 year Treasury should show that money is still flooding in and it is still hard to find quality returns: https://ycharts.com/indicators/10_year_treasury_rate https://ycharts.com/indicators/10_year_treasury_rate
