Home Loans and Mortgages on Bad Credit by Mortgages MAX

MBS Off To The Races with 4.5's up 8 ticks to 101-15! 10yr up 5 ticks on the day dropping yield to 3.70 (through post auction resistance) Reprices for the better = highly likely From the Ninja: Mortgages are still on hold as today’s 3yr note auction held few surprises-everyone loves the shorter end of the curve; don’t you? $40 billion notes maturing in 2013 is quite commonplace and the sheer size of the issue is no longer an emotional and or logistical challenge to anyone directly (or indirectly, on the bid) involved. No real change to the way we do and or perceive business here in MBS secondary trading land. The market is better into lower and or range-bound rates, like today, and not as excited should the treasury market break out to the upside to prices (and lower interest…(read more)

Immediately following the 3yr Treasury Note auction, treasuries weakened while MBS held steady. Since then, MBS have lost a few ticks, but the 4.5 remains positive on the day, up 1 tick at 101-07.
