Current Pricing of FNMA 30 Year 4.5% Bond: $101.12
+34 bps (Prior Close – $100.78)
Market Update: Mortgage Backed Security (MBS) pricing is higher today from yesterdays close. Bonds are higher today as the Stock market is in free-fall. The Treasury Department's record $123 Billion in auctions are completed, which is also giving Bonds a lift today. With MBS prices moving higher, home mortgage interest rates move lower.
Economic News: Personal Income was reported unchanged in September, while Consumer Spending fell 0.5%. Also in the news, some encouraging reports came from release of the Chicago PMI and the Michigan Consumer Sentiment, which both came in better than expectations with mildly positive numbers.
Recommendation: FLOAT
