Good morning and happy hump day! This week’s only piece of housing news was Mortgage Applications from earlier today. It came in -2.00%, making it a negative number in 14 of the past 20 releases.

Bonds today are marginally higher, with 10yr T-Notes +3/32 to yield 3.94%. In MBS, FNMA 30yr 5.00% are +4/32 to $96-23, which is a 5.54% yield and +155 basis points over the 8.6yr treasury curve. That’s all for today. Have a great day and call or email with your MBS and whole loan inquiries.
