WHY ARE MORTGAGE RATES ACTING CRAZY ALL OF A SUDDEN? Mortgage rates had been dropping recently but then SPIKED big-time last week. What gives? They had been dropping mostly due to fears of a possible recession coming from the impacts of the Coronavirus. But then lenders got overwhelmed with refinance applications. By one measure the number of applications were up almost 500%!... The lenders just couldn't handle that amount of business all at once. Most lenders raised their rates just to try to stem the flow of refi applications. Some may view this as price-gouging because their rates are higher than they "should be" given the environment but really, they just needed to slow the flow down. Many "experts" think that rates will drop again over the next few weeks as the lenders staff up to handle all the refi requests. On top of that, we are likely to see the government and the Federal Reserve try to stimulate the economy and pump more liquidity into the market through any means necessary. Normally their biggest concern about lowering interest rates is the fear of inflation. Right now, inflation is WAY down their list of concerns. Oil prices are dropping and consumer spending is going to drop off of a cliff this month due to all the closures of, well, everything. Additionally, if the stock market continues its massive yo-yo movements, many more investors will likely pull their money out of the stock market and look for a safe haven and will therefore accept a lower rate of return.
