They went up because of inflation. Big difference. Most people think mortgage rates drop during war and normally, they do. But this time, oil is the story. Oil ↑ = Inflation ↑ = Mortgage Rates ↑ So if you’re waiting for rates to come down, you’re really waiting on oil and inflation to ease. Not the Fed. Not headlines.
