Good morning and happy Monday! We’ve got another quiet week for scheduled housing news. Wednesday, we have Mortgage Applications and that’s going to do it. First up today, the pundits are trying to divine whether housing prices will pull back this year. Many feel that higher rates will force the housing market to do just that.

Over the weekend, the Fed came under attack from both Republicans and Democrats for being behind the inflation curve. J. Powell’s confirmation hearing is this week before the Senate, should be interesting!

Bond prices today are under pressure, with 10yr T-Notes -10/32 to yield 1.79%. In MBS 30yr FNMA 2.50% are also -10/32 to $100-08, which is a 2.45% yield and +71 to 7.3yr treasury curve. They’ve had a 30% extension in average life over the past 2 weeks! That’s it on this newsless Monday. Have a great day and call or email with any MBS or loan inquiries.
