Mortgage Rates Drop as The United States Faces one of the Largest Financial Panics Since 2008

Following the failure and closure of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and Signature Bank, indications of a slowing economy begin to arise.  When deposits began flowing out of these institutions, it forced the institutions to sell off their loan portfolios at a nearly $1.8 billion dollar loss.  News of this loss caused depositors to race out the door.  The shuddering of these banks has lead to a .43% drop in the average 30 year fixed rate mortgage in just two business days.  This sharp decline comes as the financial industry waits for the March 22nd  FOMC meeting.
