U.S. consumers expect mortgage rates to increase substantially over the next several years, with households on average projecting rates of 6.7% a year from now and 8.2% in three years, according to a survey released by the New York Federal Reserve.

The White House says the president will nominate Michael Barr, a Treasury Department veteran and one of the architects of the Dodd-Frank Act, as the central bank's vice chair for supervision.

An overly aggressive path of hikes to combat the spiraling cost of living may backfire. Bringing inflation down to 2% could push unemployment to nearly 10%.
