The Simple Dollar Guide to the 2020 Presidential Election

On November 3, American voters will decide who sits in the oval office for the next four years. While things will certainly change between now and then, a recent poll from Reuters has former VP Joe Biden at 47% and President Donald Trump at 40% among registered voters. It also showed that voters rank the economy and healthcare as two of the most critical topics in the upcoming election.

What Does the Fed’s 2% Policy Mean for Loans and Mortgages?

September 13, 2020 by Eric Wilson Edge

What Does the Fed’s 2% Policy Mean for Loans and Mortgages?

It may seem like a small change, but a shift in policy by the Federal Reserve could impact everything from how much you pay for goods and services to your loan’s interest rate. Recently, the Fed announced it would aim for an average 2% rate of inflation. In year’s past, the Fed tried to keep inflation as close to 2% as possible. Why the change? The Fed’s decision to be more flexible regarding interest rates stems from a concern about the economy. Historically, the Fed has focused on the “stable prices of goods and services” portion of its two main objectives (the other objective is promoting maximum employment). The 180-degree change suggests the agency has signaled a willingness to engage in a balancing act. [Read: … [Read More...]

Should frustrated savers gamble on the stock market or play it safe?

Hopes of seeing an interest rate rise have been dashed this week – so what should you do next? We look at the best strategyFor savers it has become known as the lost decade. While there had been some prospect of the Bank of England raising interest rates in the near future, the hope was dashed this week when inflation figures fell unexpectedly for June.Also dashed were the hopes of savers that they would get something approaching a healthy return from their cash reserves. It was in July 2007 when the Bank of England last raised rates – they now languish at an all-time low of 0.25%.

You don’t need bankers to invest your pension. There’s a DIY ethical route | Aditya Chakrabortty

One pioneering service shows that savers can bypass the City, and invest in social and environmental causes insteadRight on the doorstep of the world’s greatest financial centre sits one of Britain’s oldest council estates. Built in the 1890s, the Boundary is a beauty: Grade II-listed red-brick blocks radiating out from a circular garden complete with bandstand. Yet for the City of London, the estate’s tenants are as visible as the crofters of the Outer Hebrides.The Square Mile’s financiers raise billions for big companies, but not a penny in loose change reaches the Boundary. Still, the estate’s residents are as enterprising as any of Lord Sugar’s apprentices. Visiting a fortnight ago for a fundraiser, I chatted to a resident with a first-class degree who’d … [Read More...]
