Interest rates continued to trend higher overnight into the early lunch hours but reversed course after a Moody's downgrade sent stocks to the lows of the session. The 3.50% coupon bearing 10-year Treasury note closed -0-08 at 102-00, +2.9bps in yield to 3.262%. Those red lines are the Fibonacci Fans I overlaid on Friday. The short term trend favors higher 10yr note yields...

Production MBS coupon prices benefited (directionally) from the recovery of benchmark Treasury yields, closing 9 ticks (0-09 or 9/32) above the the low print of the session. This allowed a few lenders to reprice for the better (including Fells Wargo). HOW MUCH MBS RALLY DOES IT TAKE TO REPRICE FOR THE BETTER?

You would expect this to cause chaos in equity markets, but it didn't. The S&P closed -1.97 (0.18%) at 1089.63, just below 1090 support. Price action was whippy and participation was low.

Although the short term behavior of both stock and bond markets has been indicative
of a looming long-term trend reversal, neither market was able to
confirm that theory today. These mixed technical signals are reflective of a broad-based defensive

This implies we should see short term momentum carry the S&P back over 1100 toward 1108...a move that would reduce rate sheet rebate in the short term. Plan accordingly.
