    If you have a read of the mortgage forums this gets discussed nearly every day.

    Fixed rates will currently be higher than that - or at least those with resonable fees

    We'll have to wait and see if any confidence comes back into the market, leading to Swaps, LIBOR and mortgage rates to come
