Yes, no, and maybe.... That is just one of the many elements that goes into what determines mortgage interest rates. The overall market is very hard to judge. Everyone was saying by now average 30-yr fixed rates would be 5.25% - 5.00%. They jumped up to about 5% a month ago, and have quickly fallen back to around 4.50%. I've long ago given up trying to predict.
