INTEREST RATES CONTINUE TO IMPROVE – 30 YEAR FIXED DOWN TO 4.125%

INTEREST RATES CONTINUE TO IMPROVE – 30 YEAR FIXED DOWN TO 4.125%

May 27th, 2014

Mortgage interest rates continue to slowly improve – currently at their lowest levels in 11 months.

The Mortgage Backed Security market closed Monday, May 27th, trading up + 15 bps. The MBS market closed up + 30 bps last week, and up + 40 bps the week before.
There are a few main reasons that interest rates are continuing to show improvement.

The Ukraine situation is still volatile and military conflict is a possibility. Investors seek safety through US treasuries and Mortgage Backed Securities which helps improve interest rates.

Some experts believe that the stock market is trading much higher than it should based upon the actual performance of the companies. Some hold the view that a large correction could be in the future, which increases investment into US treasuries and MBS.

Lastly, it is expected that the European Central Bank will add another stimulus next week – which like the US’s Quantitative Easing – is a positive for mortgage interest rates.

All of these situations are helping rates move lower, but most experts don’t believe rates will go much lower than they are right now. The market hasn’t allowed 30 year fixed rates to drop back into the 3%’s since they rapidly moved up 12 months ago when the FED said they would likely taper their stimulus package.

So we are in high risk, low reward situation. Rates may go a little bit lower, but it’s very unlikely they will drop below 4%. Most experts believe rates are going to move higher – the question is when it will happen. With rates being at their lowest levels in 11 months, I lean towards the safe side and recommend locking.

Last week, I missed my first weekly update in quite a few years. My wife Sarah and I welcomed our 2nd child into the world – Dylan Rose Green. She was born at 12:20 AM on May 19th. She is healthy and we are truly blessed to have 2 great kids.

RATES HIT LOWEST LEVELS ON THURSDAY – RECOMMEND LOCKING

RATES HIT LOWEST LEVELS ON THURSDAY – RECOMMEND LOCKING

May 12th, 2014

Interest rates bottomed out on Thursday of last week. Since Thursday – interest rates have seen a market correction the other way – pushing interest rates a bit higher on Friday and Monday.

The Mortgage Backed Security (MBS) market closed the week down – 11 bps, but actually finished the week positive when we account for the monthly rollover of – 27 bps. The MBS closed Monday trading down -12 bps.

The MBS market is still trading in the lower portion of the trading range, meaning interest rates are the lowest they’ve been in some time, and they are unlikely to go much lower without a significant market event.

Without the likelihood of rates going much lower, I would highly recommend locking as I think interest rates will likely move up from here.

INTEREST RATES HIT 6 MONTH LOWS

INTEREST RATES HIT 6 MONTH LOWS

May 5th, 2014

Interest rates improved to their lowest levels in 6 months last week.

The Mortgage Backed Security market (MBS) remained hot, closing the week trading up + 47 basis points.

There were multiple events last week that would normally lead to higher interest rates, but the headlines in Ukraine are causing foreign investors to increase demand for US bonds, thus pushing down interest rates.

The FED tapered yet again on Wednesday, and most economic reports were very positive.

I expect some retractment in the bond market this week after 2 weeks of solid gains. I would recommend locking interest rates and taking advantage of the recent interest rate improvement.
