The downward trend in mortgage interest rates that started a few weeks ago has continued unabated. Mortgage interest rates are now at new lows for 2014 and the downturn in the stock market stock market this week has helped that trend. A string of disappointing reports on the state of the U.S. economy has sent stock buyers running into bonds and that retreat by investors has lowered the yields on bonds which in turn is lowering mortgage rates. Mortgage rates are not approaching the all time lows on rates we saw in 2012 yet but this downturn in the market has created some of the lowest rates we have seen in the last 12 months.
