In this clip from episode 251 of The Higher Standard podcast, Chris, Saied and Haroon get to say "we told you so." They called the move in the bond market well in advance and knew how it was going to push mortgage rates up and not down.

➡️ The Fed’s rate cuts were meant to ease mortgage rates, but in a plot twist, they’ve soared instead. With the 30-year fixed now up 47 basis points to 6.62%, all eyes are on the 10-year Treasury yield — and it's rising too. Thanks to blockbuster job reports and a resilient economy, the market’s betting on fewer cuts ahead. The housing conundrum deepens: high mortgage rates discourage selling, while fewer sales keep rates elevated. So basically, we are saying 90% of the Realtors who told you otherwise on social media, were wrong.

💬 Do you think mortgage rates will ever drop, or is this the new normal? How would rising mortgage rates affect your home-buying plans? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
