Mortgage rates have been climbing over the last month, now up to 6.94%. The weekly averages from FreddieMac look a lot more slow-and-steady than the reality which was extraordinarily volatile - see e.g. https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/MORTGAGE30US or https://www.mortgagenewsdaily.com/mortgage-rates/mnd. But still extremely unlikely to drop a full percentage point in a week.
