To whatever extent stocks and bonds have enjoyed a long term rally together due to central bank liquidity, the traditional view of the stock lever would not apply on longer term charts (even though it will continue to apply at varying times on intraday charts). I don't think Europe has the same power it did in mid 2012, or even early 2013. We've been progressively desensitized to EU tail risk. We could correct for other reasons though. We could also not correct much at all.

Is it possible that some non-fed fundamentals could still push us back into the pre-May range? Europe for example? Massive pullback in equities? Are the days of the stock lever and risk on/risk off a non-starter in the current environment?

"our assessment is that the MBS market is still a very healthy market in terms of spreads, execution times, and our effect on the market"

or maybe it was that it did not include prepaids, so maybe if you list points as bonfied discount points they do not count in the max

MG2, just getting caught up with chat. Status quo vs May 22nd = not a ton of additional selling. I believe we've ALREADY HAD the FOMC reaction in that regard, traded out over the past month or so, and that any further pain is reserved for more pointed/specific mention of tapering prospects, or a marked acceleration in the member forecasts.

MG- I know we've all discussed this in circles over the past weeks but as of today, if Ben says the same as he's always said (which I expect) and doesn't say anything exceedingly dovish directed at the tapering fears, do we sell off further even though the sell off we've experienced over the past 45 days is based on tapering starting now or shortly? Or do we stay pretty even?

I am waiting to see the "home builder confidence" when potential buyer's who signed contracts in May get the payment shock increase over 100 bucks a month and they back out of the deal.

It's actually North Las Vegas considering eminent domain. Different city than the gambling Mecca. It would certainly be a bigger deal if Vegas were thinking of going down this treacherous path.

Has anyone run into lenders requesting verifications of 2012 w-2's? This is an FHA loan the borrower is a CPA owns his own business and gets paid with w-2's and partnership income. He has filed an extension for 2012 and the lender is asking for 2012 w-2 verification?

I, along with almost everyone on CNBC, have been conflating asset purchase and FFF. It has almost become conventional wisdom that the two have a penumbral relation. Regardless, taking into account Hilsenrath's role/position, I do not necessarily agree there is zero mitigating effect in the recent article.
