Fed raises rates as Wall Street cheers and Congress frets
The Federal Reserve hiked the discount rate to 3.5 percent and the federal funds rate to 4.25 percent, the first discount-rate rise in five years. Major banks followed with higher prime rates, led by Citicorp to 7.25 percent, boosting borrowing costs for consumers and businesses while analysts warn the recovery could slow. The stock market rose as investors welcomed the move, though mortgage rates may fall with 30 year bond ties.
