There could be several reasons why an individual bank drops its rates. My guess is ED has gotten a major inflow of deposits recently due to its relatively high interest rate and its recent software upgrade. They probably need to back off a bit to digest all these new funds.

Hopefully E-LOAN doesn't suffer the same fate. Hey, everyone, avoid E-LOAN, will ya?
Really just needed a good excuse to talk about shaking the crystal ball...
