    I can't see fixed rates coming down for some time regardless of the central bank rates lowering, this is the cruxt of the problem as I understand it, fixed rates are determined by interbank lending which is a symptom of the current crisis, lack of confidence is meaning banks are less willing to lend to each other and making the rate very high - but I am no expert.
