Interest rates started rising in 2015 and the first part of 2016. But on June 24, 2016, the United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union. That temporarily halted the rise of U.S. interest rates.
While most economists thought short-term interest rates would end 2016 at 1.2%, we said rates would go much higher than that, perhaps as high as 2.6%. Our reasoning: When rates do rise, investors have historically underestimated has far and how fast they will go up. Not this time apparently.
