INTEREST RATES IMPROVE 7 DAYS STRAIGHT / VOLATILITY AHEAD
September 3rd, 2014
I hope everyone had a happy and safe Labor Day weekend.
Interest rates improved 7 days straight with the Mortgage Backed Security market trading higher every day last week and closing + 38 bps higher on the week. Unfortunately, the MBS market sold off some on Tuesday, selling down -27 bps and taking away most of the gains from last week.
Currently 30 year fixed rates sit at 4% paying .87 points, and 4.125% paying 0 points.
This week has a lot of economic data coming out and I would recommend locking pricing before Friday.
Thursday – the European Central Bank (ECB) will meet and many hope they reveal an asset purchasing plan that will push more money into the economy.
Friday – the all important August employment report will be released.
I think rates could go a bit higher this week and there will likely be more volatility this week than normal. Even so, I don’t see huge rate swings but most likely closing costs swings at any given rate. I still see rates trading in a relatively narrow range as they have done for most of 2014.
