MBS & US Treasury Markets
1/9 9:55:21AM EST : Delayed Data

MBS prices have been a complete mess since yesterday afternoon's announcement. A large contingent of traders who weren't in the office y'day afternoon traded the news for the first time this morning, thus adding to a massive spike early. Cooler heads are prevailing now and MBS have dropped 3/8ths of a point from the AM highs. That said, they continue to outperform TSYs significantly--just not as much as they were an hour ago.

5.0 coupons are currently up only an eighth of a point on the day.  10yr yields are up 1.8bps at 4.19.

This isn't a reprice alert since rate sheets aren't out yet, but when they do come out, we should no longer be expecting as dramatic a shift as suggested by this morning's initial trading. 

08:31 AM

Treasuries losing some ground after jobs report.  up 2.2bps at 4.194.  MBS up massively on the day still due to last night's Trump headlines.

09:30 AM

10yr up 2.2bps at 4.194. MBS still outperforming, but sobering up and now only up 6 ticks (.19). 

09:49 AM

Massive MBS volatility. More sobering up.  5.0 coupons now unchanged on the day.  10yr up 2.4bps at 4.195
