Federal Reserve Keeping Key Interest Rates Low
The Federal Reserve announced Wednesday that it is keeping its key interest rate at or near zero and will continue to do so as long as the economy remains weak.
Analysts predicted that the Fed would leave interest rates low for at least six more months.
The Fed said that it would continue its program to buy $1.25 trillion worth of mortgage-backed securities by the end of March, a sign that it intends to continue to drive down the cost of mortgage loans.
