The Fed doesn’t set mortgage rates.

They set the fed fund rate.

Do you not know that?

Mortgage rates tend to be more influeced by the 10-yr, IIRC. That aside, there is generally a correlation--when credit becomes 'cheaper' , meaning the price of a loan, you generally get more people buying loans...with their prospective future earnings...

Influenced but not controlled….
