What are the current interest rates and how can you benefit?

00:00 - 00:27 Suze Orman

All right, listen up to me, everybody. Interest rates are not going to last. They're going down, down, down, down, down. So I want you to take advantage of the 12 to 17 month CD at myalliant.com. You have to look at it. So much higher than treasuries. I cannot even tell you. So currently, they are paying for amounts of $1,000 to $74,999, 4.25 APR for $75,000 and up. It is 4.30.

00:00 - 00:00 Suze Orman

March 2nd, 2025. Welcome everybody to the Women in Money podcast, as well as everybody smart enough to listen. Suzy Oh here. And today is Suzy School. And here's what I want you to know. First of all, take out your notebooks because I think you're going to want to write things down.

00:00 - 00:00 Suze Orman

Second, I'm going to touch on interest rates, then the stock market, and I'm sure many of you are just freaked when it comes to Palantir. even though I told you, don't be surprised to see it down at 75 or 85, but that's another story. And if we have time, I will touch on real estate. So let's begin. Have you been watching interest rates? Oh, you haven't, have you?

00:00 - 00:00 Suze Orman

Because interest rates don't concern you. unless, of course, you have a CD or a treasury maturing, which I'm going to also talk to you about in a second. But currently, interest rates are coming down. For instance, the one-year treasury is all the way down at about 4.09%. The two-year treasury is at about 3.9%. And the 10-year treasury is 4.2%. Okay.

00:00 - 00:00 Suze Orman

It would not shock me on any level if the 10-year treasury goes down to 4%, which would be really, really great because then mortgage rates would start to trend down. Will they trend down enough for many of you who are willing to sell the house that you currently have at a 2.5% or 2.75% mortgage to possibly buy a new one at 5.5%? 6%, not exactly sure, but we will see.
