The average CD rate is darn right dismal and has been for awhile now. CD rates were expected to start headed higher in 2010 but that might not happen until 2011. There has been a slew of poor economic numbers released recently that is pointing to a slowing economy.

The June FOMC minutes also show the fed revised down their outlook for growth. The fed also believes inflation still isn’t a concern at this point for them to raise interest rates. CD rates won’t be heading higher until we see stronger growth and the fed raises interest rates.
