[quote=Anonymous]While I hope mortgage rates go down so I can refinance, I don't think they will, despite the President doing everything he can to get the Fed to cut rates. This because mortgage rates are tied more directly to the rate for 10-year T-Bills, which is set by the market, than to the short-term rate, which is set by the Fed. I suppose the Fed could implement some sort of bond buying scheme to influence the 10 year T-Bill rate, like they've done in the recent past, or some other type of direct intervention into the mortgage market, but I suspect that is unlikely now because it will cause inflation.
