Wednesday AM Surprise

Bonds are now at 16/32 and our market is better by .20 PMI came out at 49.2 (down BIG TIME). HMMM , maybe the economy is slowing down. Ride these rallies and lock on them because once Inflation kicks in rates are going to skyrocket up. You should be having rate changes if your rates came out early this AM. Once gas prices start to be passed on into our pricing of products and services we will start to be shocked at the price increases and tighten our spending and the whirlpool begins.

Tuesday PM

Bonds are now at +21/32 due to oil prices. The Feds feel oil prices will slow the economy down. Well They are certainly right about that. It may well bring it to a crashing halt. Enjoy the rallies while you can. Our market is better by .15. Maybe a rate change for the better. Its still not quite there yet.

Bonds are now at +12/32 and falling. Our market is flat. Oil is at 69.12 after hitting $70!! It should back off after damage assessment is done.

Bonds are at +6/32 and our market is flat. Oil is back up to $66 and the stock market is off because of it. The one piece of interesting news is Existing Home Sales were down to 7.16M. That is a drop of 2.6%. Is it a blip or a sign of something more to come.? Time will tell but we suggest there is more to come as rates move up. Please feel free to comment on your thoughts that you may have on the market .

Monday AM

Good morning Bankers, Brokers & LO's. ,
Our market is off by .1875 this AM with no news BUT Mr. Greenspan speaks Friday. It hard for the Feds to acknowledge the economic problems. We have higher prices and rates ahead. Some of it is due to oil and some due to Inflation creeping up. When 1: material costs go up, 2: wages go up, 3: interest rates go up, then Inflation raises it ugly head. If it's due to oil the Feds will stop raising rates but if it's due to wages etc. ,they will keep raising rates to slow the economy down further. The problem is they are always behind the problem. The economy already starts to slow down before they get it. We will get slammed with a big push up on rates over a period of a few days and then wonder what happened. Be prepared and stay locked. Higher rates are ahead in the not too distant future. Longer locks are not bad right now . Stay locked and stay happy.

Wednesday PM

Bonds are now - 10/32 and our market is off almost .20. As we said earlier the news had the smell of inflation. The good news is oil is down almost $2.00. We feel that is just a temporary change and they will push higher. The stock market likes that news but the early news is bad for bonds It could result in rate changes later in the day

Wednesday AM

Good Morning. Bonds are now at Flat and our market is off .10. PPI came out at +1%. That is very high. Even the core came out at +.4%. On the consumer level the price increases have not been passed on YET. Be careful today. The market can swing either direction. This news spells inflation no matter how you look at it.

Tuesday AM Rally

Bonds are at +16/32 and our market is better by .25. CPI was .5 (up) but the Core CPI was just .1. Housing Starts and Building Permits were both also up. Industrial Production was .1 (down). Overall the mix was positive other than the oil problems. Use this rally for your benefit and remember rates are still in a upward movement overall.

On the downside is oil prices which hit $66.00. WOW! Is there a odor of inflation in the air? The feds say no and that oil can go higher without any problems. What do you think?

Monday AM

bonds are -2/32 and our market is flat BUT oil prices are now 63.40 ! That spells inflation. The Feds will act Tuesday and raise rates again. Look at our rates. They are close to 6 and moving up. Customers need to understand rates are going up and lock in while they can. Even longer lock periods are not bad now that the spread is a lot less than normal. Stay tuned for any changes
