NEW YORK, Oct. 7, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- RateWatch, a premier banking data and analytics service owned by TheStreet, Inc. (NASDAQ: TST) reported today that national averages for CD rates of all durations this week remained unchanged as the Federal Reserve continued to keep the short-term federal funds rate at a range of zero to 0.25% since late 2008.
"National CD rates were unchanged after the U.S. economy added 248,000 jobs in the month of September, and the national unemployment rate fell to 5.9%, the lowest level in over six years," TheStreet's Antoine Gara reported. "While hiring gains continue to point to healthy economic activity, average hourly wages fell slightly in September. That low wage inflation is unlikely to change the Federal Reserve's cautious outlook on the labor market, indicating that short term interest will remain low for an extended period of time even after the Fed ends its monthly bond purchases in October."
