CD Rates Drop By One Basis Point As Looming Debt Ceiling Crisis Poses Threat To Savers
NEW YORK, Oct. 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- RateWatch, a premier banking data and analytics service owned by TheStreet, Inc. (NASDAQ: TST) reported today that national averages for money market and 3-year CD rates slipped this week as CDs generally remained unchanged at record-low levels.

The one basis point drop in 3-year CD rates this week erased last week's one basis point gain and has shown a slight up-and-down fluctuation the last three weeks. Money market rates dipped a basis point as well. National averages remain little affected since the Federal Reserve again committed to maintaining the pace of monthly asset purchases.
"The ongoing government shutdown has led many analysts and economists to argue that the central bank will not announce a drawdown in economic stimulus as the market still isn't receiving government economic data," reported Joe Deaux, TheStreet's Economics Analyst. "Savers should keep a close eye on the looming debt ceiling, because a government default could have repercussions that ripple through nearly every sector of the economic system."
