That is not the same as a mortgage rate. The money that you borrow to buy a home comes from investors that mainly worry about long term inflation. If the Fed drops interest rates and that makes these investors believe that inflation will return within a couple of years then it could actually cause your mortgage rate to go up! If the Fed raises rates and that makes the investors think inflation will never return then mortgage rates could go down! Most likely what ever the Fed does it will not change the mortgage rate.

The economy is in good condition. If they reduce the rate, it will not be by that much because as a nation, we want to avoid a recession, we also want to avoid an inflationary market as well. Lock your rate in a 45 day lock(regardless of which program you choose, your lender has to lock your rate in for 45 days,so that if the rate drops you get that rate, if the rate increases, your rate will not go any higher that the quoted rate) no pre-pay. Even if they change the rate on the 18th, it will take up to 6 months for consumers to see a change. Its an election year, which could mean added interest to reduce the rate to make voters happy.
