Over half of Americans — 56% — say they plan to host guests for Thanksgiving this year. With costs rising 19% from last year, consumers are<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s/24/11/41944635/inflation-on-track-but-fed-may-go-slowly-on-interest-rate-cuts-experts-say"> feeling the pinch. </a>
What To Know: The cost of hosting Thanksgiving dinner in 2024 is up 19% from last year with an average of $431 spent on food, drink and decor for the event, according to <a href="https://www.lendingtree.com/credit-cards/study/thanksgiving-cost-report/">a survey</a> from LendingTree, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TREE#NASDAQ">TREE</a>). 
"Whenever you start spending more, there's always going to be more risk. That's especially true when you're spending almost 20% more than last year," said Matt Schulz, LendingTree chief credit analyst.&nbsp;
"Most people's budgets are tight, leaving little financial wiggle room from month to month, so a 20% increase can be a big deal," Schulz added.&nbsp;

Survey respondents said they expect to spend an average of $265 on food and drinks and $166 on decor for an average of 11 guests at their table for the holiday this year. Most hosts — 60% — expect their guests to pitch in with either money or an item to offset expenses with 25% saying they may reconsider sending an invitation next year to a guest that arrives empty-handed. 
More than a third — 36% — of potential hosts say the amount they will spend on Thanksgiving will be a financial strain with 34% of potential hosts planning to use credit cards for Thanksgiving costs. Strikingly, 14% of hosts already regret their decision to do so. 
Sales and Promos: According to the survey, 30% of potential hosts will shop around, while 22% will use coupons and 33% will do both to help to offset costs. Retailers are trying to ease the financial strain by offering special Thanksgiving promotions and sales events.&nbsp;
Walmart, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>) is promoting its Inflation-Free Thanksgiving Meal for 2024, which the company says allows customers to prepare the holiday meal for under $7 per person. The total cost for the meal to serve eight people is just over $53 and includes turkey, stuffing, gravy, cranberry sauce and dessert. 
Albertsons Companies, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ACI#NYSE">ACI</a>) is offering a Thanksgiving promotion for a free 16- to 20-pound turkey when customers spend $150 or more on groceries in a single transaction. Target Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TGT#NYSE">TGT</a>) has brought back its Thanksgiving meal deal, priced at $20, for four people. In addition to the meal, Target is offering frozen turkeys at 79 cents per pound, a 20% reduction from last year. 
"It's such old and cliched advice, but it's true," Schulz says. "Taking the time to comparison shop can save you significant money at the holidays or any other time of year."

The average interest rate for a 30-year fixed mortgage dropped to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/23/11/35920779/us-mortgage-applications-surge-as-rates-dip-is-the-industry-moving-out-of-the-woods">its lowest point</a> in two years as markets anticipate the Federal Reserve lowering its key interest for the first time in four years, perhaps by as much as 50 basis points.
The rate for the most popular home loan fell 14 basis points in the week ended Sept. 13 to 6.15%, marking the lowest rate since September 2022, the Mortgage Bankers Association said on Wednesday.
The rate also fell 14 basis points during the previous week.
&#8220;The 30-year fixed mortgage rate, at 6.15 percent, is now at its lowest since September 2022 and is more than a full percentage point lower than a year ago,&#8221; said Joel Kan, MBA's deputy chief economist.

Mortgage Rates Drop To 2-Year Low, Refinancing Hits 'Fastest Pace' Since 2022: Rocket, LendingTree Among Movers

Consumers&#8217; wallets should get some relief if the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/09/40882613/builders-first-source-other-homebuilder-stocks-rise-with-catalysts-such-as-mortgage"> Federal Reserve lowers rates</a> this week, but it won&#8217;t be a huge help, according to Benjamin Ayers, senior economist with Nationwide Insurance (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NWFAX#NASDAQ">NWFAX</a>).
&#8220;It should put some downward pressure on auto rates, mortgage rates, loan rates, but on the other side of the coin, it should put upward pressure on CD rates and saving rates that you get out there,&#8221; Ayers told Benzinga.
Lowering the Fed interest rate by only 25 or 50 basis points will not mean much for consumers in the short term, he adds.
&#8220;It&#8217;s nice but if you can&#8217;t afford a mortgage at the current level, that&#8217;s not going to change if it goes down by 25 basis points. It&#8217;s more kind of the start of a process,&#8221; he said.
&#8220;Six months, a year, 18 months from now, you&#8217;re going to see much lower rates, and that&#8217;ll really help to juice things, but in the near term, it&#8217;s going to have a pretty negligible impact for most people,&#8221; Ayers says.
A rate cut of 25 or 50 basis points doesn&#8217;t mean rates that affect consumers&#8217; wallets will drop expectedly, said Matt Schulz, LendingTree, Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TREE#NASDAQ">TREE</a>) chief credit analyst.

&#8220;While lower rates are certainly a good thing for those struggling with debt, the truth is that this one rate cut isn't really going to make much of a difference for most people,&#8221; he said.
&#8220;It doesn't change the fact that the best thing people can do to lower interest rates is to take matters into their own hands.&#8221;
He said the average rate on a new credit card offer should stay at a record high of 24.92% for some time if the Fed lowers rates.
&#8220;While they'll almost certainly fall from record highs in coming months, no one should expect dramatically reduced credit card bills anytime soon,&#8221; he said.
&#8220;Barring the Fed unexpectedly stomping on the gas pedal when it comes to lowering rates, credit card APRs are still going to be high for the foreseeable future.&#8221;
A $5,000 credit card balance would take 27 months and $1,528 in interest to pay off at 24.92% if monthly payments of $250 were made. If the interest rate went down by 0.25% because of a 0.25% Fed rate cut, the interest paid over 27 months would fall by $22, resulting in savings of less than a dollar a month, Schulz noted.
Schulz said auto loan rates will get lower, too, if the Fed reduces rates, but consumers should still shop around for financing from other places besides dealerships because their rates are typically much higher.
Saving rates have already started falling and may keep doing so, but consumers don&#8217;t need to panic, he said.
&#8220;Yields aren't going to fall off a cliff immediately after the Fed cuts rates,&#8221; he said.

Mortgage rates declined to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/08/40666981/the-time-has-come-to-adjust-cheaper-mortgage-rates-could-be-just-weeks-away-but-it-all-hinges-on-thi">their lowest point </a>in more than 18 months last week, encouraging homebuyers to refinance the amount they have left on their home loans.
The average contract interest rate for 30-year fixed-rate mortgages with conforming loan balances ($766,550 or less) decreased to 6.29 percent from 6.43 percent, marking the sixth straight week in declining rates, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA).
The average interest rate for 30-year fixed-rate mortgages with jumbo loan balances (greater than $766,550) decreased to 6.56% from 6.73%.

The average rate for 15-year fixed-rate mortgages decreased to 5.71% from 5.98%.
The refinance share of mortgage activity increased to 46.7 percent of total applications from 46.4 percent the previous week. The adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) share of activity decreased to 5.4 percent of total applications.
&#8220;Mortgage rates declined for the sixth consecutive week, with the 30-year fixed rate decreasing to 6.29 percent, the lowest rate since February 2023,&#8221; said Joel Kan, MBA's vice president and deputy chief economist. 
"With rates almost a full percentage point lower than a year ago, refinance applications continue to run much higher than last year's pace.&#8221;
Mortgage applications increased 1.4 percent from one week earlier, according to the MBA&#8217;s Weekly Applications Survey for the week ending Sept. 6, 2024.
"Purchase applications increased over the week and are edging closer to last year's levels,&#8221; Kan said.
&#8220;Despite the drop in rates, affordability challenges and other factors such as limited inventory might still be hindering purchase decisions."

<h2>How Are Analyst Ratings Determined?</h2>
Ratings come from analysts, or specialists within banking and financial systems that report for specific stocks or defined sectors (typically once per quarter for each stock). Analysts usually derive their information from company conference calls and meetings, financial statements, and conversations with important insiders to reach their decisions.
Analysts may enhance their evaluations by incorporating forecasts for metrics like growth estimates, earnings, and revenue, delivering additional guidance to investors. It is vital to acknowledge that, although experts in stocks and sectors, analysts are human and express their opinions when providing insights.
