★Kevin O'Leary Says No, Interest Rates Won't Ever Go Below 5% Again — But All That It Means Is… 'You're Gonna Buy A House 30% Smaller. That's All'
Strategic Analysis // Ian Gross
"Kevin O'Leary's bold prediction signals a permanent shift in borrowing costs. This means higher mortgage payments will likely reset housing affordability, forcing buyers to adjust expectations and potentially cooling real estate markets long-term. Investors should consider how this impacts consumer spending and broader economic growth."

The Big Market Report Take
O'Leary's take feels a bit like stating the obvious: higher rates mean less buying power. It's less about a permanent 5% floor and more about adjusting expectations. Either way, that dream kitchen might just become a kitchenette.
