The UN GA

The 79th session of the United Nations General Assembly marks a crucial milestone in the global effort to accelerate progress towards the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The highly anticipated Summit of the Future, held during UNGA, underscores the urgent need for enhanced international cooperation to address pressing challenges such as climate change, poverty and inequality, while also tackling the impacts of ongoing conflicts and global health crises.

This week also marks the worst commuting week in NYC, Data shows the average speed in Midtown drops to less than 4 miles per hour during the

General Assembly week, compared to normal averages between 4 and 6 miles per hour.

Drivers should expect delays along 1st Avenue between 34th and 63rd streets, as well as the FDR Drive.

The NYPD says 57th and 42nd streets will be limited to one lane in either direction from 2nd to 5th avenues, and 1st Ave will be what's considered a "frozen zone" from 40th to 49th streets.

The Fed Cut Interest Rates

After almost three years of rising interest rates, the Fed finally announced that they are cutting the rates by fifty basis points last week. So the big question is, what does this mean for the mortgage rates? Are the mortgage rates going to plummet today?.

No, The fed cutting rates does not directly impact the mortgage rates today. The long term bonds, particularly the ten year treasury are what affect the mortgage rates. Now, the Fed cutting the interest rates will affect those long term bonds. So consequently, eventually mortgage rates will be affected by this. At the end of the day, it’s positive news for mortgage rates, and it does look like they will be coming down in the future.

The bottom line is it is positive news for the economy and lower rates are on the way.
