Interest Rate Predictions 2023: Will Rates Increase in 2023?
Abstract
The Fed's primary instrument for controlling inflation is its ability to influence interest rates. Based on what it sees in the economy, the Fed can raise or lower its benchmark rate, known as the federal funds rate. The Fed wants to concentrate on slowing demand.

Mortgage rates are no exception. Over time, this helps supply and demand rebalance. Fannie Mae expects the Fed to continue.
