WHAT WALL STREET GETS WRONG ABOUT INTEREST RATES Everyone is watching the Federal Reserve. Will interest rates go up? Will they finally come down? What will the markets do next? But what if investors are asking the wrong question? In this episode of Scriptures & Wall Street, Carlos Cortez Jr. examines one of the biggest narratives dominating financial headlines: interest rates and the future of retirement planning. While Wall Street continues to speculate on every Federal Reserve meeting, Carlos argues that long-term financial success isn't built by predicting the next rate decision—it's built by preparing for every possible outcome. The conversation explores how years of low interest rates changed consumer behavior, why inflation continues to challenge families despite optimistic headlines, and how higher borrowing costs are reshaping mortgages, credit cards, businesses, and retirement strategies. More importantly, Carlos discusses the difference between chasing market predictions and practicing biblical stewardship, reminding listeners that wise financial planning is rooted in discipline, preparation, and faith—not headlines or political cycles. Whether you're nearing retirement or simply trying to make better financial decisions, this episode encourages you to stop relying on market forecasts and start building a plan designed to withstand uncertainty. Because the strongest retirement strategy isn't built around guessing what the Federal Reserve will do next. It's built to succeed no matter what happens.
