I just ran across this quote from Richard Clarida of the Treasury Dept.

"We tend to think of automatic stabilizers in textbook
Keynesian terms, but a new automatic stabilizer for the
United States is the interaction between
long-term interest rates and mortgage refinancing."

I wonder what he will think if the bond market continues to sag.
