"Toronto's York University Finance Professor Moshe Milevsky did a study of five-year rolling interest rate during the previous 50 years, and showed that 88.6 per cent of the time, homeowners would have saved money having floating interest rate mortgages, which are tied to the rise and fall of bond yields, rather than fixed-rate mortgages, which are usually locked-in over a period of one to five years. The average saving was $22,000 on a $100,000 mortgage paid out over 15 years"...... quote from Vancouver Sun dated April 3, 2007.
