As of March, 3.2% of outstanding debt was in some stage of delinquency, according to the Fed. That’s 1.5 percentage points lower than in the fourth quarter of 2019, but delinquency transition rates increased for all product types.

Fed Chair: Interest rate cut unlikely

Fed Chair Jerome Powell repeated Tuesday that it will likely take more time than previously thought before the U.S. central bank feels confident enough about the outlook for inflation to lower interest rates.

Inflation now sits around 3.5%.
