Question : 55 of 101

Marks: +1, -0

Ronald: According to my analysis of the national economy, housing prices should not increase during the next six months unless interest rates drop significantly.

Mark: I disagree. One year ago, when interest rates last fell significantly, housing prices did not increase at all.

It can be inferred from the conversation above that Mark has interpreted Ronald’s statement to mean that

housing prices will rise only if interest rates fall
if interest rates fall, housing prices must rise
interest rates and housing prices tend to rise and fall together
interest rates are the only significant economic factor affecting housing prices
interest rates are likely to fall significantly in the next six months
