Last week, the Fed signaled that it might pause its rate increases, after imposing 10 straight hikes, so that it could take time to assess how higher borrowing costs have affected the economy. The full economic impact of the hikes, though, might not become evident for months.Silicon Valley Bank collapse: Fed became aware of interest rate, and liquidity risks in Nov. 2021
