At the same time, the NASDAQ and Stocks overall are hovering right near all-time highs. Typically, when Stocks move higher, so do rates. Not this time around. So, what's happening? Bond prices are moving higher and rates lower in response to fear and uncertainty surrounding COVID-19, along with the reality that inflation will remain low and unemployment will remain elevated for the foreseeable future. Also, helping Bonds and rates is the daily buying of Treasuries and mortgage-backed securities from the Federal Reserve. Stocks are hovering near all-time highs due to state and economy re-openings, positive economic data, along with an overwhelming monetary response from the Federal Reserve and Treasury. It's very likely that both Stocks and Bonds will continue to remain elevated in price, with rates remaining low, as we work through COVID-19 while monetary response remains in place. Once we move past COVID-19 -- and we will -- the monetary response will ratchet down significantly and the next directional move in Stocks, Bonds, and rates will be determined by the health of the economy, inflation, corporate earnings, and the relative performance of the U.S. versus the globe. Bottom line: Home loan rates will likely remain historically low for quite some time as it will take a while to fully repair the economic damage caused by COVID-19. ## Related Articles [![](https://www.carringtonwholesale.com/wp-content/blogs.dir/2/2020/10/Market-Trends_2020.10.12.jpg)](https://info.carringtonmortgage.com/knowledge-base/interest-rate-outlook-three-things-to-follow) [Market Trends](https://info.carringtonmortgage.com/knowledge-base/tag/market-trends) ### [Interest Rate Outlook – Three Things to Follow](https://info.carringtonmortgage.com/knowledge-base/interest-rate-outlook-three-things-to-follow) [Jordan](https://info.carringtonmortgage.com/knowledge-base/author/jordan) [Read More](https://info.carringtonmortgage.com/knowledge-base/interest-rate-outlook-three-things-to-follow) [![Market_Trends_2019-09-16](https://info.carringtonmortgage.com/hubfs/Market_Trends_2019-09-16.jpg)](https://info.carringtonmortgage.com/knowledge-base/stocks-and-mortgage-rates-rise) [Market Trends](https://info.carringtonmortgage.com/knowledge-base/tag/market-trends) ### [Stocks and Mortgage Rates Rise](https://info.carringtonmortgage.com/knowledge-base/stocks-and-mortgage-rates-rise) **Last Week in Review:** Stocks and Mortgage Rates Rise [Jordan](https://info.carringtonmortgage.com/knowledge-base/author/jordan) [Read More](https://info.carringtonmortgage.com/knowledge-base/stocks-and-mortgage-rates-rise) ## Mortgage & Lending Services - [Buy a Home](https://www.carringtonmortgage.com/home-loans/buy-a-home) - [Refinance a Home](https://www.carringtonmortgage.com/home-loans/refinance-a-home) - [Mortgage Calculators](https://www.carringtonmortgage.com/tools/calculators) - [The Loan Process](https://www.carringtonmortgage.com/tools/loan-process) - [Find an Expert](https://www.carringtonmortgage.com/find-an-expert) - [Home Builders](https://www.carringtonmortgage.com/Partner-with-Us/home-builders) - [Real Estate Agents](https://www.carringtonmortgage.com/Partner-with-Us/real-estate-agents) ## Terms - [Privacy Policy](https://www.carringtonmortgage.com/legal/privacy-policy) - [California Consumer Privacy Act Notice](https://www.carringtonmortgage.com/legal/ccpa-notice) - [State Licensing](https://www.carringtonmortgage.com/legal/state-licensing) - [Terms and Conditions](https://www.carringtonmortgage.com/legal/terms-conditions) - [Best Practices](https://www.carringtonmortgage.com/legal/best-practices) - [Fair Lending Statement / HMDA Notice](https://www.carringtonmortgage.com/legal/fair-lending-statement) - [Consumer Fraud Alert](https://www.carringtonmortgage.com/legal/consumer-fraud-alert) - [Equal Opportunities](https://www.carringtonmortgage.com/legal/Equal-opportunities) ## Manage Your Mortgage - [Payment Options](https://www.carringtonmortgage.com/payment-options) - [Mortgage Assistance](https://www.carringtonmortgage.com/mortgage-assistance) - [Disaster Assistance](https://www.carringtonmortgage.com/disaster-assistance) - [Scheduling Servicing Fee](https://www.carringtonmortgage.com/schedule-of-fees) - [Payoff Statements](https://www.carringtonmortgage.com/payoff-statements) ## Contact Us - Current Customers ## About Us - [Our Mission](https://www.carringtonmortgage.com/our-mission) - [Foundation](https://www.carringtoncf.org) - [Holding Company](https://www.carringtonhc.com) - [Accessibility](https://www.carringtonmortgage.com/accessibility) - [Press and Media](https://www.carringtonmortgage.com/pressandmedia) - [Contact us](https://www.carringtonmortgage.com/contact-us) ## Get the App [![](https://info.carringtonmortgage.com/hs-fs/hubfs/raw_assets/public/Templates/2022/svg/Carrington-mobile-apple.jpg?width=135&height=42&name=Carrington-mobile-apple.jpg)](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/carrington-mobile/id1673471360) [![](https://info.carringtonmortgage.com/hs-fs/hubfs/raw_assets/public/Templates/2022/svg/White-Google-1.jpg?width=135&height=42&name=White-Google-1.jpg)](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.carringtonms.CMSMobile2&pli=1) [Icon-Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/CarringtonHomeLoans/) [Icon-Twitter](https://twitter.com/CarringtonMS) [Icon-Linkedin](https://www.linkedin.com/company/carrington-mortgage-services-llc) [Icon-Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/carringtonmortgage/) Icon-EHO Consumer Access NMLS ID #2600 | Copyright 2026 Carrington Mortgage Services, LLC.
