Random speculation: Could be banks needing to pull out of the market due to the Fed signaling September rate cuts due to the higher-than-expected unemployment report. This will cause a drop in yield for savings, which would cause people to reduce what they have in those accounts.
I’m a homeowner and I support this message. Couldn’t afford the house I live in today and we only bought it 4 years ago.
