Examining the past has always been a good indicator of what the future may hold, and this is especially true when looking at financial markets. By viewing the history of the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate (or Historical Prime Rate) it is possible to identify trends and calculate averages.
If you are interested in predicting possible changes to the Prime Rate which may have effect on your savings or credit agreements then I recommend visiting the WSJ Prime Rate website, which features a historical database of the Prime Rate since 1947, the current Prime Rate, and Prime rate Forecast.
