The economy is not performing like the economists predicted... shocking. Which is affecting the 5 Year Bond yield which is an indicator of where fixed rates go (not variable).


In February, the bond yield was up in the 1.80% - 1.90% range and as of today it is 1.28%. That is approx. 0.60% difference along with the Spring market competition (which has not slowed down)... rates have decreased.
