Charlotte to pay $1.07M for land for trolley line Four lawsuits over the city of Charlotte’s taking of adjacent properties near the city’s center have been consolidated into one $1.07 million settlement, the landowner’s attorney reports. Thomas “Tommy” Odom Jr. of The Odom Firm in Charlotte reports that the city initially planned to take nearly 12,400 square feet for a road realignment project and installation of an electric trolley system, more than 9,700 square feet for temporary construction easements, and nearly 7,400 additional square feet for sidewalk and utility easements from a 1.2-acre tract owned by TA&S Enterprises of NC, Inc.

But Odom, said that an inverse condemnation claim pushed the city to more than double the allotment for the construction easements for the five-yearlong project. “Their contractor used more of the property than they were supposed to,” Odom said. The city had initially deposited just $219,200 for the land, which contains a small commercial building being rented out for interim purposes. Odom said that the highest and best use of the property would have been roughly 87 units of multi-family mixed-use development. “The dispute was over how much just compensation they were entitled to for

the land they actually took as well as the damages to the property remaining because the temporary construction easement covered most of the property for five years so it delayed the development of it,” Odom said. The case over the parcel, located about a mile from the Charlotte City Center, was unified into a single matter and eventually settled through mediation in July 2021. Wayne Huckel served as mediator. Bert Concepcion, senior assistant city attorney, represented the city. A message left with the city attorney’s office requesting comment wasn’t returned. David Baugher

Employees Feeling the Burdens of Meeting Inequality in the Hybrid Work Environment With hybrid work – or a flexible corporate environment that enables employees to operate both remotely and in a physical office – now a permanent professional fixture, workers have come to expect new levels of flexibility. However, employees now demand even more from their hybrid work experience – namely greater meeting equity. Simply defined, meeting equity ensures that remote employees receive the same level of engagement, collaboration and access to a meeting room experience as those who are physically seated around the table. As a new Barco ClickShare survey released today found, hybrid workers are growing more concerned about perceptions of an inequal and less productive meeting experience while apart from their colleagues, and many are going as far as to consider new opportunities at organizations where they believe they will be more included. After nearly two years of familiarity with remote and hybrid work, the Barco ClickShare Hybrid Meeting Survey found that more than one-third (35 percent) of workers still have trouble fully engaging during hybrid meetings. A significant source of this disconnect emanates from a perception of oversight, as 28 percent find it difficult to have their voices heard when joining hybrid meetings from an offsite location. Twice as many remote hybrid participants (56 percent) likewise feel that meeting leaders cater too heavily to those in a physical meeting space when conducting the conversation. “While our ClickShare Hybrid Meeting Survey clearly indicates that the majority of workers (80 percent) prefer the hybrid model, 71 percent still struggle with the frictions and technical challenges that come with hybrid engagement,” said Lieven Bertier, Segment Marketing Director, Workplace at Barco. “Hybrid meetings have become the mainstay of professional collaboration, and this data spotlights an ideal opportunity for businesses to remove access barriers for remote participants and ensure that all employees feel they can perform their best from any location.” Compiled in late 2021, the ClickShare

Hybrid Meeting Survey reflects the attitudes and preferences of modern workers as business leaders adjust operational models, workspaces, and organizational cultures in alignment with evolving professional dynamics. Featuring input from more than 4,000 global workers across varying occupations and locations, the Survey also captures the technical, functional, and emotional complications that have emerged across the broader hybrid work transition. Technical Frustration: A Gateway to Resignation? The ClickShare Hybrid Meeting Survey notes an urgency for businesses to refine their hybrid work and meeting equity strategies. With businesses feeling the impact of The Great Resignation, Barco found that hybrid technology and flexibility no longer are simply a means of operation, but rather a differentiator in recruiting and retaining top talent. As Barco uncovered, nearly three in four workers (71 percent) say they still struggle with joining and navigating hybrid meetings. However, these technical frustrations now appear to have a greater impact on their professional satisfaction, and are potentially motivating them to explore new opportunities. Nearly one in three (30 percent) workers say they will consider a job offer from another company with a well-defined hybrid policy, which includes clear guidelines and tools for successful and efficient hybrid meeting participation. “Our Survey reiterates that as employees’ appetites for functional hybrid work

continue to grow, working conditions now are just as important as salaries in attracting and retaining the best workers,” added Bertier. “For business leaders, successful hybrid work begins with establishing a formal policy – which we were surprised to learn that 60 percent of organizations still do not have – but also includes making investments that drive engagement and give employees the leverage and tools to work wherever and however they like. These conversations and strategies will only grow in importance as businesses develop and execute their return-to-office plans.” Working to See and Be Seen While hybrid workers are vocalizing their challenges, Barco found that the return to on-site conference rooms isn’t without its own pains. More specifically, employees are still working to replicate the flexible and convenient meeting experience they’ve enjoyed while remote. Though 85 percent of businesses have at least one dedicated video conferencing room in their space, only 39 percent of IT managers feel these rooms are adequately prepared for a “Bring Your Own Meeting” style of work. As a result, nearly two in three (65 percent) workers have trouble mastering the differing connectivity points and laptop compatibility variables of their office’s video conferencing rooms. These frustrations also mirror the sentiments Barco captured in its latest Meeting Barometer, an ongoing, periodically-updated index of workers’ satisfactions with their hybrid meeting environments.

U.S. Wage Growth Increases Substantially by 4.4 Percent

Fourth quarter U.S. wage growth increased 4.4 percent. Wage growth for both job holders and job switchers hit all-time highs of 5.9 percent and 8.0 percent respectively, according to the ADP Research Institute® Workforce Vitality Report (WVR) released today. In fact, wage growth for Generation Z (24 years old and younger) job holders saw the largest wage gains in December 2021 at 13.1 percent. Employment growth increased by 5.0 percent in December 2021. “ADP data showed U.S. wage growth increased 4.4 percent on average for all workers in December 2021, with job switchers and younger job holders who saw the largest wage growth,” said Nela Richardson, chief economist, ADP. “Leisure and hospitality, which experienced the greatest job loss due to the pandemic, was a notable exception to this overall trend. While leisure and hospitality led employment gains in the first half of 2021, it is the only industry where job switchers’ wages were basically flat on average in December 2021 compared to previous year.”

Employment growth year-over-year increased 5.0 percent, with all sectors experiencing employment growth. While leisure and hospitality led the way with a 17.7 percent increase, overall employment levels for the sector remain below their high-water mark prior to the pandemic. However, wage growth for job holders and job switchers was the strongest in industries including professional business services (12.2 percent) and information technology (12.2 percent). Across the U.S., all regions experienced wage growth over 3.0 percent. While job switchers saw record-setting wage growth, job switchers in the West and Northeast received the biggest gain at 9.2 percent and 9.0 percent. By firm size, midsized companies with 500 to 999 employees increased wages the fastest, up 9.1 percent in December 2021 from one year prior. Wage gains for job switchers saw tremendous increases overall, with double digit increases for job switchers in industries including finance, information technology and professional business services with an average wage of $18.04 for females and $19.66 for males. The ADP Workforce Vitality Report (WVR) was developed by the ADP Research Institute. It is an unprecedented, in-depth monthly analysis (published quarterly) of the vitality of the U.S. labor market based

on actual data that identifies labor market trends and dynamics across multiple dimensions. These dimensions include employment growth, job switching, wage growth and hours worked. In addition to the macro data presented in the report, there are also segment-specific findings by industry, state, gender, age, experience, and pay level. Established in October 2014, the report methodology was updated in April 2018 utilizing monthly data to include additional data points and deeper insights.

Rental Market Wraps Up 2021 with Price Growth That’s 5.3 Times Faster than in 2020

New data shows national rents grew five times faster in 2021 than in 2020, on average, according to the Realtor.com® Monthly Rental Report. In December, rents notched the sixth straight month of double-digit yearly increases nationwide and surged in the majority of large metros, led by Miami, Tampa, Fla. and Orlando with gains of more than 34% each.

“On average in 2021, national rents were more than 10% higher than in 2020. As our December report further illustrates, this average understates the wild ride that the rental market, and many renters, experienced in 2021. Rents started the year roughly flat and gained incredible momentum throughout the year, hitting double-digit yearly pace by summer and continuing to surge through December,” said Realtor.com® Chief Economist Danielle Hale. “While yearly growth is still strong, monthly growth cooled in December, which is typical for this time of year and not expected to last. With rents already at a high and expected to keep going up, rental affordability will increasingly challenge many Americans in 2022. For those thinking about making the transition from renting to buying their first home, rising rents will remain a motivating factor even as for-sale home prices and mortgage rates continue to climb.” Largely attributed to winter seasonality, the U.S. median rental price posted a smaller monthly gain in December compared to earlier in 2021. However, December rental trends also reflect a shift in demand towards smaller rental units common to major metropolitan centers. For instance, twobedroom rents posted monthly declines for the first time since November2020 in December, after skyrocketing earlier in 2021 as workplace flexibility enabled some big city renters to explore smaller markets offering more space for their money.

NOVAK: Quitting May Mean Surviving

As she walked out of his office, a stapler flew by her, missing her shoulder but smashing into the filing cabinet. She had escaped his office safely but wondered when his anger would flare again. A high-strung president and small-business owner vacillated between bouts of crying, complaining and screaming at the few employees she had. They uncomfortably accepted her mood swings and attributed her erratic behavior to her fear of losing clients and income. One day, she ranted and screamed she was starving and hadn’t eaten in two days. Her assistant quickly left to get a sandwich for her boss, thinking the food would calm her down. She returned and handed her a familiar meal with a drink. The boss accepted the bag and hurled it across the room within inches of the assistant’s head and screamed, “I don’t want this; I want help!” A two-employee law department made up of an attorney and her paralegal in a real estate firm handled all the negotiations by phone. The attorney routinely flipped moods: from chatty and social to uncontrollable anger. While the paralegal was on the phone discussing the case, the attorney rushed into the paralegal’s office shouting profanities loudly enough to drown out the phone conversation. The paralegal explained to the person on the phone that someone had entered the office and she would return the call as soon as she could. The

attorney continued her rage as this assistant sat quietly at the desk, waiting for her boss’ angry episode to stop. None of these employees have been physically hurt yet, but they live with the abuse hanging over them, not knowing when it will occur again or if it will possibly cause physical injury. They didn’t know how to explain leaving a job without having another one, so they stayed, continuing to accept the unprofessional and unacceptable behavior. Reporting episodes of physical outbursts and verbal rage within a small office could mean their word again their abuser’s, and they weren’t sure they would come out on top. What they didn’t consider was that they had already been harmed by the emotional abuse they suffered regularly. Assault is a criminal act and should be immediately reported to the police by calling 911. According to Karen R. Koenig, a licensed clinical social worker and psychotherapist who works with abuse victims and survivors, these people minimize or rationalize their abusive experiences by saying, “He didn’t mean it,” or “She can be so sweet and has helped me when I needed a favor.” Abusive personalities strike out in cycles, and their inconsistency keeps those in their circle “walking on eggshells.” Abusers have internal triggers, such as an inability to tolerate frustration and anger, and external triggers, which can happen when

an employee makes a mistake (as all humans do sometimes). Some abusers feel remorse (see the abuse cycle wheel), while some always blame the victim. People traumatized in childhood will often not recognize abuse; they rationalize it because that helped them live with it, or they blame themselves. For the sake of their mental and physical health, they must get out of those situations to avoid experiencing the body’s stress response, in which the nervous system “dis-regulates” (releases a cascade of chemicals that causes an imbalance). When something bad happens, the body goes into fight or flight. Childhood abuse causes a person to be on “hyper-alert” all the time, and people take their upbringings into every workplace. Dr. Valeria J. Stokes, the CEO of Stokes Consulting Group, the HR division of the Affluence Group LLC, says, “The presence of hostile work environments and retaliation are generally supported by leadership. It can be found in a company culture that has no accountability for performance and without a professional performance evaluation process. “Individuals must have their own professional philosophy and requirements for the work environment they want. An employee growth culture would include: 1) Special project assignments to expand skill sets, 2) Professional growth and leadership development,

3) Professional performance and management evaluation and 4) A company approach to performance and values, and how those values are demonstrated. “Candidates should also find out why the position is open, how long it has been open and how many other jobs are open and identify tenure of management compared with employee attrition. This shows something is amiss. Employees leave managers, not organizations.” Interviewees can say they left because there were no opportunities beyond their current role and wanted to conduct a full-time job search. Never share any negative experience in a job interview, even when an interviewer shares negative information they have heard about a certain boss. People often accept jobs because they need to pay the bills, which is why they tolerate unprofessional behaviors from bosses. If one experiences abusive behavior or “terroristic threats,” he/she should call 911 and report the incident. It’s a talent-driven market now, so candidates should confidently start job searches to leave hostile environments, and show professionally led companies what they could contribute to the job and to the company.

ENNICO: A ‘Pep Talk’ for Tomorrow’s Entrepreneurs For the past couple of years, I have taught an online “Entrepreneurship and Small Business Management” course for a local university. The course, offered only to MBA students in their final year, carries a pretty demanding workload. Students have to read an 800-page textbook, take a midterm exam with four essay questions and prepare a business plan for a business of their choice, writing one plan section each week for eight weeks. While some of the business ideas the students come up with will never work in the real world, I never grade them on that. What I expect to see is detailed analysis of the market, competition and financial requirements that will help them (or an investor) determine if the business is going to be successful or not. Every once in a while, I sense that the students aren’t putting in the time necessary on their plans -- this tends to take place especially around the time the midterm exam is due -- and I feel the need to give them a “pep talk” to keep them motivated. Here is the email I send my students when I feel the need to light a fire under their you-know-whats: “I have to report that with one or two exceptions I am somewhat underwhelmed by the assignments most of you have submitted for the past couple of weeks. I realize these are tough assignments -- a new type of project for some of you -- and with the Midterm Exam looming I suspect many of you put your time in on that this past week rather than your business plan assignment. (The midterm does have a much higher point score, and focusing on that is actually a very entrepreneurial approach to a class like this; if you don’t

INSIDETRACT FROM PAGE 4 returning to downtown offices, studio rents accelerated at a faster pace than larger unit rents in December and helped overall rents remain at a double-digit percentage point higher than in 2020 for the sixth month in a row. • In December, the U.S. median rental price grew 19.3% year-over-year to $1,781, which was relatively flat from last month’s level ($1,780). • Larger unit rents posted smaller monthly gains than seen from October to November, but grew by doubledigits over December 2020. Among 0-2 bedroom units, the median rental price for one-bedrooms grew at the fastest annual pace, up 19.3% to $1,651. • December rental prices for two bedroom units ($2,003) increased 19.1% year-over-year, coming in slightly below the November median ($2,005). • The median studio rental price continued to accelerate in December, rising 18.6% over the same month in 2020 to a two-year high of $1,462.

have the time to do everything perfectly, focus on the things that really count.) But remember at all times that more than 90% of all small businesses fail in the first year or two. Don’t fall in love with your idea; this is almost always the first step to business failure. You should be looking at your business with a cynical eye. Remember that if you decide to launch this business you will be working 24/7 for at least a year or two of your life trying to make it happen. You don’t want to waste that much time because nobody gives it back to you. Think about what you would do (or want to do) to someone who wasted that much of your time in a personal relationship! By all means try to sell your idea, but don’t gloss over its faults and weaknesses -- criticize it ruthlessly and make the idea prove itself worthy to you (and to me). So far the business plan sections you have submitted (for the most part) have been way too cursory and the information presented too superficial. I want to see research in these sections. I want to see numbers, graphs and charts if they are available (and appropriate).

I want to see you ‘drilling down’ into the details. I want to see how well you understand people and what motivates them. I want to see you citing to outside sources backing up your points, etc. If this were an undergraduate business course, I would let it slide to some extent, but this is an MBA course for senior-year students. You can -- and should -- do better. Be advised the grading in this class gets tougher and tougher as it progresses, and if I point out weaknesses in a particular section, I will want to see it done better when the final business plan is submitted at the end of the course. Don’t worry that by getting into the details you will show that the idea isn’t viable. I’m not grading you on your idea or how I think it will do in the real world. I had a student last semester who actually ended up hating his/her original idea but did such a brilliant job of demonstrating why the idea would likely never work (s)he still got an A for the course! Please take this as a ‘pep talk’ rather than as a ‘dressing down.’ I realize many

of you have little time to spend researching markets, competitors and so forth but that’s often what separates the ‘winners’ from the ‘losers’ in the real world of entrepreneurship. If this is a real idea you have for a business, and you want to see it succeed, you gotta be passionate enough about it to put in the hours. This is why so many very successful entrepreneurs are perceived as crazy (or sociopathic) by the outside world. Normal folks with normal routines do not become billionaires, build world-class businesses, transform society, or teach entrepreneurship at universities :-).” With luck, someone gave you a similar talk at some point in your life.

in summer which continued through end-of-year. The early gains were led by secondary markets and larger units, driven by the migration of big city renters to smaller rental markets where budgets stretched further. Even as the big city rental recovery began, as reported in September, the 2021 surge in secondary rental market popularity and prices continued, and helped offset slower early-year growth. As a result, the average pace of growth in overall U.S. rents closed out the year at more than five-times faster than in 2020. • Nationally, rent growth hit a double-digit pace in 2021, up an average of 10.1% – 5.3 times higher than the 2020 rate (+1.9%) and above the Realtor. com® Forecast for 2022 (+7.1%). • With demand for space rising during COVID, larger unit rents posted the biggest annual gains among unit sizes in 2021, each rising at a doubledigit pace. Over the past 12 months, average year-over-year rent growth for two-bedroom and one-bedroom units was 11.7% (+$196) and 10.0% (+$139), respectively. • Common to big cities that saw an exodus of renters earlier in the pandemic, studio rents declined at the beginning of 2021. However, studio rents began to

recover in the second half of the year as downtown offices and attractions began to reopen, and ended 2021 at an average annual growth rate of 6.1% (+$76). The real “Cinderella story” of the 2021 rental market was among smaller secondary metros. The year’s fastestgrowing rental markets were all outside of big tech cities, with the top 10 led by the relatively affordable Los Angeles alternative of Riverside, Calif. Rental popularity in these secondary metros was driven by a number of COVIDrelated trends in consumer preferences, including the need for more space and easier access to the outdoors. As a result, 2021 annual rent growth across the top 10, on average, was two times faster than the national rate. • In 2021, rents increased by an average of 20.7% in the top 10 markets, led by Riverside (+28.5%), Tampa (+25.6%), Memphis (+23.0%), Miami (+22.1%) and Sacramento (+19.5%). Additionally, December data shows many of these markets remained among the fastest-growing metro areas through end-of-year. • A key trend driving rental demand and price growth in these areas is rising workplace flexibility. In half of 2021’s fastest-growing rental markets,

LinkedIn data shows the share of job seekers applying for remote work roles is higher than national average (25.2%)1, led by Tampa (29.6%). • Comparatively, big tech cities dominated the 2021 list of slowestgrowing rental markets, with average rent growth across these 10 metros ending the year at just 2.0%. However, 2021 data shows big city rents recovered significantly from sharp drops earlier in the year, with average rents declining in just two of the bottom 10. (see table below) Hale added, “Regardless of where you live, renting is generally more expensive now than in prior years. However, expected income growth could give renters more negotiating power – especially if you continue to have workplace flexibility. Those able to work big city jobs while living in secondary metros are still likely to find more affordable rental options than in the biggest tech cities. Take the example of Tampa – despite being one of the fastestgrowing rental markets in 2021, the December median rental price ($2,038) remained significantly lower than in a big northeastern city like New York ($2,670).” Staff report

Stocks jump, oil drops in latest dizzying swing for markets BY STAN CHOE AND DAMIAN J. TROISE AP BUSINESS WRITERS NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks are jumping, and oil prices are falling sharply Wednesday as the big swings shaking global markets go in both directions amid uncertainty about the war in Ukraine. The S&P 500 was 2.8% higher in afternoon trading, following a four-day losing streak that had pulled it 13% below its record set early this year. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 750 points, or 2.3%, at 33,383, as of 1:27 p.m. Eastern time, and the Nasdaq composite was 3.6% higher. Such big swings have been jerking markets around in recent weeks as investors grope to guess how much economic damage Russia’s invasion of Ukraine will do. The swings have struck not only day-to-day but also hour-tohour, with some days seeing several big reversals. The chaotic movements are likely only to continue with uncertainty so high about the war in Ukraine and its ultimate economic fallout. The region is key to markets because it’s a major producer of oil, wheat and other commodities, whose prices have spiked on worries about disruptions to supplies. Stocks once again moved in the opposite direction of oil prices, with inflation such a dominant worry. Analysts said bargain hunters may be scooping up stocks after concerns about a slowing economy coupled with high inflation triggered their steep recent slide. Many of those buyers appear to be smaller-pocketed, “retail” investors trading on their phones and laptops. And they’re often buying shares that big professional investors are selling. Crude oil prices tumbled and the slide accelerated amid reports that the United Arab Emirates will urge fellow OPEC members to boost production and ease supply concerns. A barrel of U.S. crude oil dropped 11% to $110.12. Brent crude, the international standard, fell 11.4% to $113.38. Last week saw record selling of U.S. stocks by hedge funds, strategist Jill Carey Hall wrote in a recent BofA Global

Research report. Retail investors and institutional investors were net buyers. The moves by retail investors may be a result of people worrying about missing out on any potential rebound. A “buy-thedip” strategy, where drops in stocks were seen mainly as opportunities to buy low, was very successful following the 2020 crash caused by the coronavirus. The S&P 500 kept climbing from that plummet without a 10% drop until just recently. Big recent moves for markets also show that prices already reflect a lot of pessimism, with crude oil prices up more than 50% so far in 2022. That may be why crude prices actually receded on Tuesday, after President Joe Biden announced a U.S. ban on imports of Russian oil. A ban will mean disruptions to supplies, but oil traders may already have accounted for it when they briefly pushed the price of U.S. crude above $130 a day before the announcement. Gold prices and a measure of nervousness among stock investors on Wall Street also eased. European stocks rallied even more than the U.S. market. Germany’s DAX jumped 7.9% and France’s CAC 40 rose 7.1%. European nations face an even greater shock than the U.S. from rising energy prices because of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. That could result in the European Union taking greater action to

DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY FEDERAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY Proposed Flood Hazard Determinations for Town of Mint Hill, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, and Case No. 21-04-4211P. The Department of Homeland Security’s Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) solicits technical information or comments on proposed flood hazard determinations for the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM), and where applicable, the Flood Insurance Study (FIS) report for your community. These flood hazard determinations may include the addition or modification of Base Flood Elevations, base flood depths, Special Flood Hazard Area boundaries or zone designations, or the regulatory floodway. The FIRM and, if applicable, the FIS report have been revised to reflect these flood hazard determinations through issuance of a Letter of Map Revision (LOMR), in accordance with Title 44, Part 65 of the Code of Federal Regulations. These determinations are the basis for the floodplain management measures that your community is required to adopt or show evidence of having in effect to qualify or remain qualified for participation in the National Flood Insurance Program. For more information on the proposed flood hazard determinations and information on the statutory 90-day period provided for appeals, please visit FEMA’s website at https://www.floodmaps.fema.gov/fhm/BFE_Status/bfe_ main.asp , or call the FEMA Mapping and Insurance eXchange (FMIX) toll free at 1-877-FEMA MAP (1-877-336-2627).

shore up its economy. The result could be more stimulus and more caution from central banks on interest rate increases, said Stephen Dover, chief market strategist and head of Franklin Templeton Investment Institute. “Whereas the U.S. will have the wind in its face as stimulus falls, Europe may actually have the wind at its back.” Asian markets mostly fell. Stocks in Shanghai dropped 1.1% after China’s government reported that consumer price inflation accelerated in February. On Wall Street, the gains were broadbased. Some of the strongest moves came from airlines, travel companies and other stocks that bounced back from steep drops on worries about fuel costs and the economy. United Airlines rose 10.3%, though it’s still down nearly 19% for the year so far. Cruise operator Carnival steamed 11% higher, and Booking Holdings rose 9.1%. Among Wednesday’s few decliners were oil-related companies, which lost momentum following big leaps this year on the back of rising crude prices. Halliburton fell 7.2%, though it’s still up roughly 50% for 2022. Such swings have been particularly wide in markets for commodities because Russia is the No. 2 oil exporter and the No. 3 supplier of nickel, which is used in electric car batteries, stainless steel and other products. Russia and Ukraine also are among the biggest global sellers of wheat. Less than a week after removing

from Russia its list of nations deemed a safe place to invest, Fitch cut its credit rating on the nation further into junk status and warned of an imminent default on sovereign debt. Treasury yields climbed as an anticipated increase in interest rates by the Federal Reserve nears. The Fed’s policy-making committee is meeting next week, and the wide expectation is that it will vote to raise its benchmark short-term rate by a quarter of a percentage point. It would be the first such increase since 2018. The Fed is facing a delicate and increasingly tough task as it moves to raise rates through 2022, which tends to slow the economy. The central bank wants to pull rates high enough to push down inflation, which is at its highest level in generations. But it doesn’t want to raise them so much that it causes a recession. “There’s more uncertainty about what the Fed is going to do now than just a few weeks ago,” Dover said. The yield on the 10-year Treasury rose to 1.93% from 1.86% late Tuesday. The value of bitcoin rallied more nearly 9% and was back above $42,000 after Biden signed an executive order on government oversight of cryptocurrency. Crypto players have increasingly been saying they welcome increased regulation, and they want to have a hand in shaping it. ___ AP Business Writer Joe McDonald contributed.
