NEW YORK (AP) — The Federal Reserve’s decision Wednesday to raise its benchmark rate for the 11th time, by a quarter-point, could once again send ripple effects across the economy.Mortgage rates, which have surged since the Fed began lifting rates in March 2022, may now rise further. So could rates on credit cards and some business loans.Perhaps no one has felt the pain more than car buyers. It’s not just that sticker prices are way up. Or that lenders have tightened credit standards. On top of all that, steadily higher auto loan rates have elbowed many would-be buyers out of the market.Consider: A study by the New York Federal Reserve has found that 14% of applicants for auto loans were rejected over the past year — the highest such proportion since the New York Fed began tracking the figure in 2013 — up from 9% in February.Auto-loan applicants, of course, aren’t the only borrowers being turned down in larger numbers these days. In that same June 2022-June 2023 pe...Casino mogul Steve Wynn to pay $10 million fine to end Nevada fight over claims of workplace sexual misconduct

It’s his predecessor now in the NFL

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — North Carolina star quarterback Drake Maye figures he has the perfect resource to help him navigate the challenges ahead in a season of high expectations.Speaking during the Atlantic Coast Conference’s preseason football media days, Maye said he has been in contact with current NFL quarterback Sam Howell as a sounding board.“Just trying to soak up all I can from him because he’s lived it and I want to be in the position he’s at,” Maye said.Maye is being mentioned as a Heisman Trophy candidate and future pro passer for a team aiming to contend for an ACC title.Two years ago, Maye was a true freshman while Howell was in a similar position. That ended up being a bumpier-than-expected season for UNC, which started ranked No. 10 in the AP Top 25 but finished just 6-7.Maye said he asked Howell — now set to be the starter in Washington — what he would’ve liked to have done better in that final year. Howell suggested making sure to take care of non-f...Sean Payton pins blame for awful 2022 season by Broncos, Wilson on predecessor Nathaniel Hackett

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Sean Payton was so intent on having the Denver Broncos put last year’s awful 5-12 season behind them that he had a video made showing a 2022 Ford Bronco with its rearview and side mirrors removed.Clearly those mirrors were no longer missing this week when he excoriated his predecessor, Nathaniel Hackett, and lashed into Hackett’s new team, the New York Jets, in an interview with USA Today’s Jarrett Bell that was posted Thursday.Payton, who’s returning to the sideline after a year’s sabbatical, called the work Hackett and his staff did in Denver last season “one of the worst coaching jobs in the NFL” and said there were “20 dirty hands” around Russell Wilson’s career-worst season. “Everything I heard about last season,” Payton said, “we’re doing the opposite.”Although Payton was known for his frankness during his 15-year stint with the New Orleans Saints, his comments came as somewhat of a surprise given that he’s admonished his team not to look back at 2022 a...University of Colorado to rejoin Big 12 conference

DENVER (KDVR) — There's a silver lining to Colorado homeowners' golden handcuffs: more of them have a big piggy bank than ever before. The Centennial State has one of the highest levels of interest in home equity lines of credit, according to a new analysis from luxury real estate platform RubyHome. The firm commissioned data on the online search history of a home equity line of credit. Denver metro home prices steady in June This line of credit, or HELOC, is like a credit card drawn against a person's home. It allows the borrower to write checks against the difference between the home's value and what's already been paid off. HELOCs have become all the rage in the last few years. Home values across the country soared to record highs following the COVID pandemic, especially in Colorado and the western U.S. in general, so homeowners have a bigger value to draw credit against. RubyHome's data saw national searches for the term "HELOC" more than double from 2022 to the present. Colo...Miami Dade teachers get pay raise of up to 10% under new union contract
