NEW YORK, June 30, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- RateWatch, a premier banking data and analytics service owned by TheStreet, Inc. (NASDAQ: TST) reported today that national averages for CD rates of all durations this week remained unchanged as the Federal Reserve continued to keep the short-term federal funds rate at a range of zero to 0.25% since late 2008.

"CD rates showed no increase this week," said Scott Gamm, TheStreet Economics Reporter. "Investors have shifted focus from the Federal Reserve's looming rate hike to Greece's ongoing debt woes, sparking tremendous volatility throughout the markets. It remains unlikely that Greece will be able to make its $1.7 billion debt payment, which is due to the International Monetary Fund on Tuesday. Though investors are also watching Thursday's June jobs report, a key piece of economic data that tends to drive the Fed's rate hike decisions."
