Hi justinfo,

By no means an expert of the fed.

Rising rates impact furure costs of new treasuries.

QE 1 and 2 were short term debt 2's and 5's - then QE 3 kicked out the duration.

So we have managed to lock in a lot of debt at very cheap rates.

As rates rise it appears emerging markets are feeling the pinch first - they too have enjoyed the low rates for infrastructure projects.

Cheap money greases all wheels and allows a quicker pay down of debt - which in 2008 was very extended.

It is now 5-6 years later and if you had a 15 year mortgage you are refinancing and paying down equity now.
