Do you expect the home buyer tax credit extension to contribute to a noticeable pick up in loan production?

Created By: Adam Quinones

Yes, I anticipate an increase in activity (26.9%)
Only a modest upturn in production (43.8%)
Nope. 2009 demand stole from 2010 demand (29.2%)

Is that where you are saying we will end up at the end of the day? The number of job losses are better than expected....at least until they revise them up 30,000 like last month's numbers...still looking at the highest unemployment rate is 26 years...that is not a good thing no matter how it is spun.... Is this like the price is right? can i take 3.35 and 999.99?

1001 and 3.37 :-)

this number is not real. It will be revised next month or the next.

Much better reaction to the NFP this morning than last month. Anyone notice how everyone on CNBC just passed over last month’s revisions UPWARD of 30K? All we heard last month was downward revisions were coming and would show the recovery had taken hold, but this month we see a 30K revision upward and CNBC still displayed last month job number as 246K, when comparing it to today’s NFP number. Can you get an actual degree in "Spin"?

I'm sticking w/ yesterday's gutflop to float into next week. 9.7 is a big # after the improvement to 9.4 last month. Even w/ potentially damaging data(to us) next week, market sentiment still seems downward. Varsity team reenters the game next week & the Stock lever takes 10 yr. sub 3.30. I think we're in a range for rates and they won't move lower, but we may see a little more YSP.

You guys notice that the U-6 unemployment figure is at 16.8%...hmmm...

Raymond J Ruddy III | Contact or Connect with this Member

Adam, you should note that the unemployment figure you mention is the U-3 data set.

NFP pretty much a non-event? Looks like the bond/mbs gopher yawned and headed back to his hole to do the sideways shuffle for maybe the next six weeks...
