Investor's Business Daily - The Mortgage Bankers Association&#39;s applications index rose a seasonally adjusted 1.3% to 622.9 in the week ended Aug. 31, but multiple applications and refilings caused by recent credit problems may have played a role. Activity could slow on higher interest rates. The MBA said a dearth of demand for short-term loans sent 1-year ARM rates to 6.52%, near week-ago levels but well above longer-term rates.
