Mortgage Rates to Stay Low, Goldman Predicts
Investment bank Goldman Sachs recently predicted that mortgage rates won't rise much when the Federal Reserve ends its purchases of mortgage-backed securities at the end of March.
Part of the reason is that demand for mortgages is low, says Goldman analyst Sven Jari Stehn. What would drive up mortgage rates, he says, is a decision by the Fed to sell the mortgage backs it holds, but that isn't likely to happen anytime soon, he believes.
