Conventional and Government (FHA and VA) lenders set their rates based on the pricing of Mortgage-Backed Securities (MBS) which are traded in real time, all day in the bond market. This means rates or loan fees (mortgage pricing) moves throughout the day, being affected by a variety of economic or political events. When MBS pricing goes up, mortgage rates or pricing generally goes down. When they fall, mortgage pricing goes up.
Mortgage rates are getting some support today. The MBS market worsened by -32 bps yesterday. This may have been enough to increase mortgage rates or fees. The market experienced high volatility yesterday.
The Fed: We will hear from Mester, Kashkari, Collins and Harker today.
Treasury Auction: We kick off three straight days of dumping our debt into the marketplace with today's shorter term 3 year note.
Central Banks: The Reserve Bank of Australia followed the trend of keeping their interest rate unchanged.
This morning markets are bouncing back from yesterday's beating. Volatility has started high.
If you are looking for the risks and benefits of locking your interest rate in today or floating your loan rate, contact your mortgage professional to discuss it with them.
