The questions are simple enough: What's going on with mortgage rates?
What makes them rise, or fall? Is it the Fed? The economy? Inflation?
The banks? The President? Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac? Is it a secret
conspiracy?
The answer is that rates are moved by a number of related factors, and
believe it or not, you -- Joe or Jane Consumer -- are one of those
factors.
