It’s the monthly jobs numbers today and they’re not going to be pretty and will be possibly the tip of the iceberg as we head into May. [Trading Tips] Good morning. Last year, we cautioned that low interest rates and historically low mortgage rates wouldn’t last. If you timed the bottom in rates last year perfectly, mortgage rates were about half of what they are today.

While interest rates may be far higher now, traders are betting on rate cuts as early as next year, which could mean the ability to refinance at lower rates.
