Hi slum, Higher rates will settle in to be a good thing over time. When treasuries offer much higher rates than elsewhere - it draws in foreign money. This relieves the Fed from selling treasuries to handle our deficit. Our economy has recovered from the political mess that made the 2008 credit crisis from cheap mortgages to people with bad credit with nothing down (really dumb politics). The era of "free debt" should be over. It's long been time savers get a break by returning to money having an economic advantage. There are a world of boomers out there, who need to have a return on their nest egg - not to mention all the other younger savers. This equity swoop shall pass as well. In fact we'll look back at this time and say "shoulda mortgaged the farm" We are about to come into a great period of growth - oil and liquid natural Gas exports to the world . As we use electrical plug ins in urban areas, and continue to export more and more of our wonderful new found (thru technology) energy resources. Look at the long term and it is bright!! Bob
