Bond Prices sliding a bit. 5.0% down 12-13/32nd's currently and 5.5% down 5/32nd's Lock if this scares you. Perhaps it should, but it's very difficult to say if lenders will reprice at this point.

Back and forth! Stocks sold off late in the session. Bond markets open for another hour and gains are holding. Feel free to float through the day. Next week is anyone's guess.
