Interest Rate Movements

Interest-rate movements are based on the simple concept of supply & demand. If the demand for credit (loans) increases, so do interest rates. When the economy is expanding there is a higher demand for credit so rates move higher, whereas when the economy is slowing the demand for credit decreases and so do interest rates.
