Data Ramps Up And Another Dash of Quarter-End Trading

Data Ramps Up And Another Dash of Quarter-End Trading

Before looking at trading screens this morning, the first order of business would have been to mention the ramp up in economic calendar activity. While the line item count is respectable, it's really only the 10am Job Openings data that packs enough of a punch to represent any serious volatility risk. Even then, sometimes it hits and sometimes it doesn't. Bonds are starting out slightly weaker thanks to another dash of quarter-end position squaring. It arrived at almost the exact same time as the last Wednesday's installment, but in the form of selling instead of buying. Thankfully, it was a lot smaller and merely added about 2bps to 10yr yields (which remain well under the 4.42% technical level).

MBS are now down 6 ticks (.19) on the day and an eighth of a point from the AM highs after a slightly hotter reading on the Job Openings data ( 7.594m vs 7.30m f'cast).  10yr yields are up 2.9bps at 4.403.  Not a huge sell-off, but it added another 2bps to the morning's already modest weakness. It looks to be finding its footing already, so we're not necessary assuming much--if any--negative reprice risk just yet.    READ MORE

Mortgage rates ended last week at the lowest level since May 14th. Most of the recent drop happened last Wednesday, but each day since then has added a microscopic improvement. Today was no exception with the 30yr fixed rate index falling a mere 0.01%--the lowest increment we measure. The calendar of economic events was completely empty and consequential news headlines were just as scarce. This will change over the next 3 days on at least one front.
