The average 30-year fixed mortgage rate in the United States has surpassed 7% for the first time since January 2025. This increase is driven by the yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury note, which climbed to 5.11%, marking its highest level in 19 years. The rise in borrowing costs has placed renewed pressure on the national housing market.
Separately, authorities in Catalonia, Spain, discovered the body of a 75-year-old man inside a residence. Local police, the Mossos d'Esquadra, were alerted by neighbors on Wednesday. Investigations revealed that the man's wife and daughter had been living with the deceased individual's remains for several years.
