    Holding at 11/32nds improved on the day. Price improvements will come late today. The question is whether you should take those rates or wait for employment numbers on Friday. If you think the economic data will be weaker than expectations, floating is...

    Now we just touched 9/32nds improvement on the day, with the 5.5% coupon at 100-15. We would only have to hold this gain for a short time to see rate improvements (although lenders may be slow to release them).

    We've now touched 100-12 on the 5.5% coupon which is the best it's been since early this morning. If we hold these levels, even for a little while, we may now begin to see improvements, but we'd have to hold steady at these levels.

    the 4/32nds we got is gone again (for now). Certainly not time to think about locking yet, but still no improvements likely. The probable result of today's action is that we are going to see the big market movements in the next two days. FYI, 10 year...

    The mighty maelstrom for which we had prepared is certainly proving to be a mild breeze. MBS back on the positive side to the tune of 3/32nds. Yet again, this is not enough for a reprice for the better. Fire up the BBQ, call up the track about that tee...

    Still holding Steady! I suppose the boilerplate verbiage hasn't inspired buyers or sellers to take more action than the other. We have picked up about 4/32nds in the last 3 minutes, but it's far too soon to expect a reprice for the better. Whatever the...

    Very heavy trading, with 5/32nd swings taking place from second to second, however, it has not ticked down more that 1/32nd for more than 5 seconds. Stay on target...

    expects inflation to moderate, but there is uncertainty. past monetary policy actions should help to foster moderate growth over time MBS is holding dead even currently day over day in very heavy trading.

    If all else fails, or if there is some problem with either your or my internet connection, 10 year treasuries have been tracking well with MBS recently. This is no guarantee that they will after the FOMC announcement, but if, for whatever reason you don...

    MBS are down 3-4/32nds off their highs of the day. It's not guaranteed that you will see any price worsening because of this, but it is a possibility.

    Despite numerous pieces of data, trading is still calm before the FOMC announcement at 2:15PM Eastern. So with MBS holding steady overnight, and wild fluctuations in rates likely holding off until after 2:15pm, I'll issue your second boarding call for...
