Economy - Thursday (Investor's Business Daily)



Investor's Business Daily - The 30-year fixed rate averaged 5.48% for the week ended Jan. 24, down from 5.69% last week, as the Federal Reserve slashed key lending rates and the housing market weakened further, Freddie Mac said. It was the lowest rate since March 2004. The 15-year fixed rate dived 26 ticks to 4.95%. The 1-year Treasury-tied adjustable rate plunged 27 ticks to 4.99%.
