Globally, it complicates the efforts of other central banks to tamp down inflation by pushing down their currencies. The interest rate on the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage - the most popular U.S. home loan - has shot to the highest since 2000, hurting homebuilder confidence and pressuring mortgage applications.
