Giving up on understanding interest rates!

[NeetaT]

I give up on understanding interest rates other than it has nothing to do with supply and demand. I thought that if credit was tight that would mean it would be difficult to get a loan thus drastically reducing supply and increasing demand thus causing a higher interest rate to occur. The higher interest rate would seem to prevail even if it were to be artificially lowered by the Fed.

Understanding interest rates would be simpler NeetaT if you stopped thinking about supply and demand and started viewing it in terms of Risk.

Interest rates on loans are comparable to car insurance. 16 years old drivers pay higher premiums for insurance than 35 year olds. Get a DWI and this might be comparable to a Foreclosure.
