Well that’s all rather relative. Interest rates today are quite low by historic standards.

Rates are too high relative to other rates in the yield curve. And as far as history goes, what period are you talking about? I have a daily history of funds rates going back to 1954 in my other browser window.

Try looking at the rates around 1977 forward. If those rates are in fact lower than today, I’ll be very surprised.
