The Latest Fed Projections

Here are the latest economic projections from the Fed. The median forecast calls for three more rate hikes next year. After that, it’s two more in 2019 plus one or two in 2020.

This means that the real Fed funds rate will finally get up to 0% by the second rate hike next year (June, maybe). It will take four rate hikes for the Fed funds rate to match the current 10-year yield.
