Despite an absence of market movers on the calendar, bonds found a reason to move. In fact, 10yr yields staged their first legit breakout from the narrow trading range of the past 4 months. Whether that has any implications for the future is a debate for technical analysts to have with fundamental traders. There was an extra little jolt of mid-day weakness when Trump suggested Hassett was out of the running for the Fed Chair nomination, but the day's bond losses would still be better-characterized as gradual and non-event-driven. MBS outperformed yet again for the same old reason (actual and/or anticipated GSE MBS purchases), but nonetheless ended the week at the lows.
Losing ground from flat, opening levels. MBS down 5 ticks (.16) and 10yr up 4.1bps at 4.215.

Lock / Float Considerations
Mortgage rates have clearly met with some resistance when attempting to break below an index level of 6.0% and they pushed up to the highest levels of the week by Friday. With a long weekend ahead and Treasuries finally breaking the naughty side of their trading range, risk-aversion is an easier case to make. That said, some of this weakness may have simply been position squaring ahead of a 3-day weekend.
