Why would it change, stay the same or rise?

      My completely uneducated guess? Short-term interest rates interest will go down. Long-term interest rates will up.

      I don’t see any way the fed is going to raise rates for a while. I don’t see a big cut coming either. My guess is that the fed cuts 50 basis points late this year. That drives down short term. My guess is long term rates stay flat.
