Sorry, are you saying that US banks are not lowering mortgage rates in line with interest rate cuts? My own monthly mortgate payment has fallen by over $500 a month in the last year due to the dramatic lowering of interest rates; that's what I meant when I said that IF you are in work, and you have a mortgage, then falling interest rates should mean that you're much better off than you were.

Sorry - I know that this is way off-topic, but I'd be interested to know the reason why the same thing isn't happening to people in the US!
