Again your reading comprehension is astounding even using your chart lol: September 2.4
October 2.6
November 2.7
December 2.9

Which trends of inflation are consistently lower and closer to 2% inflation? You can see yourself out now

And the latest inflation rate (June) is 2.7%.

So my statement is accurate. Inflation was lower last September when the Fed started lowering rates than it is now.

Maybe it's YOUR reading comprehension that's astounding...

And Bessent announced new issuances - upcoming Treasury Auctions (August 2025): The U.S. Treasury announced upcoming auctions for the second half of 2025, starting next week, with $58 billion in three-year notes, $42 billion in ten-year notes, and $25 billion in thirty-year bonds scheduled for sale. These sizes are consistent with the February refunding announcement and are expected to remain steady for the next several quarters.

Mountains of debt. Rates won't go down with this much supply.

trust me, i do.

they're 400K+ in nashville and my wife's sister has been saving for years and still isn't close to being able to afford one.

i guess your answer is 'move to mississippi' but thats a pretty cavalier response since her job and family all live here.

You should see builder’s risk for our projects which are over milllions of dollars as a project. Those costs are 90k plus. Just for insurance one time
On a project. The insurance industry needs to be doge’d in some fashion and those at the very top need to be criminally investigated. It’s way out of control.

I'm not surprised you can't comprehend numbers. You've consistently proven that.

You proved it when you looked at a chart that showed mortgage rates were over 7% earlier this year and then blatantly lied that rates have not been over 7% this year.

BTW, I'm still waiting on you providing a link to where home buyers can finds 5.5% 30 year, fixed rate conventional mortgage loans.

You keep harping on interest rates needing to be lowered by 1% but you already "know" where mortgage loans rates are 1% lower than what any of the rate surveys show.

So, please share your enlightenment with us mere mortals.
