As expected, the Fed declined to raise rates in June. CPI Inflation data this month, which excludes volatile energy and food prices, showed inflation rose at an annual pace of 4%, the lowest in over two years.

While the Fed did not raise rates in June, there are indications they will do so by 0.25% at both their July and September meetings. 2024 may be another refinance boom as experts are predicting rates will decrease by 100 basis points over the course of the year.
