A Variation on the same Question

I'm pretty happy for my peace of mind that I should fix sometime soon.
Can someone in the know tell me whether the apparent recent withdrawl of cheaper rates is a gradual process of lenders pulling back (and thus is a considered action that could continue for the forseeable), or whether it's just a knee-jerk (in the case of the most recent withdrawls) to what happened over the past week in the US. If the latest batch of rate withdrawls is due to the most recent happenings in the States, might it be the case that they will be offered again sometime soon?
I know that some have said that they do not see rates coming down this year. So I just want to confirm that you mean that the fixed rate deals that are on offer now are the best it's gonna get this year (in your collective estimation!)
Many thanks...
