- MND 30-year fixed index: 7.27% on Oct 30, 2026
- Down 0.02 percentage points from Oct 29
- MND says top-tier quotes were just under 7.30%, the lowest since Sept 23
- MND tied the drop to tech stocks hitting their lowest since July and to reports that a large AI company's post-IPO credit rating may not be investment grade, which could mean less debt issuance. Heavy corporate borrowing has been one force pushing rates up this year.
- Freddie Mac's weekly average was 7.24% on October 29. Daily indexes like MND's react faster and often run a little higher. The next Freddie Mac survey is due Thursday, November 5.
