RATES REMAIN NEAR RECORD LOWS
June 26th, 2012
The MBS Market closed last week trading down (- 22 bps).
Mortgage rates increased last week, but rebounded Monday with the bond market closing up +31 bps, taking back the losses from the previous week and then some.
The Federal Open Market Committee on Wednesday issued a statement that they would continue “Operation Twist”, but would not issue a new round of buying mortgage backed securities. This shot the Mortgage Backed security market down, as many expected the FED to take more action.
The markets are still closely tied with Europe. Thursday begins another European Summit that is unlikely to yield any significant results. As long as Europe continues to drag down the world economy, mortgage rates will likely stay low.
NOTE: The rates quoted below are a picture in time. Rates and pricing change every single business day. Also the rate and pricing an individual will qualify for can be different based upon credit scores, loan to value, etc.
