MBS & US Treasury Markets
10/23 1:24:12PM EST : Delayed Data

We typically want to see an eighth of a point of weakness in MBS versus either the highs of the day or rate sheet print times in order to send out an alert.  

Right now, we're only seeing 3 ticks (.09).  While this isn't classic alert territory, the departure from the AM price plateau has been fairly abrupt. The jumpiest lenders have occasionally repriced for the worse in similar scenarios. 

09:32 AM

Slow, steady selling overnight and flat so far at weaker levels.  MBS down 3 ticks (.09) and 10yr up 3.3bps at 3.98

01:17 PM

Flat at weaker levels.  MBS down 6 ticks (.19) and 10yr up 4.9bps at 3.996
