Mortgage Rate Forecast for Dennis MA for March 4, 2010

Here are some of the events affecting mortgage rates today in Dennis, MA.

What Mortgage Backed Securities Are Doing Today:

  • The price of the FNMA 30-Year 4.5% MBS coupon opened at 101.25 this morning - the same as yesterday's close.


  • At 9:30, the 4.5% MBS coupon was trading at 101.25 - the same as its opening.

Price Trend in Mortgage Backed Securities:

The chart below shows the price trend of the FNMA 30-Year 4.5% coupon over the past 30 days from 2-2-2010 to 3-4-2010:

The price trend of the FNMA 30-Year 4.5% coupon from 2-2-2010 to 3-4-2010

Remember, on mortgage backed securities (MBSs), as the price goes up, the yield comes down - and so do mortgage rates. I expect that mortgage rates will be the same if not better in price this morning as compared to yesterday.

Economic Reports, News, and Events Affecting Mortgage Interest Rates Today:

  • Revision to the 4th Quarter Non-farm Productivity and Cost Index - is up 6.9% for the 4th quarter of 2009, while labor costs plunged 5.9%. This shows that companies are more productive with less workers. This is good news for profitability, but not good news for jobs. However, the report had no impact on the mortgage market or mortgage rates this morning.

  • Jobless Claims - 469,000 new claims for unemployment were filed last week. This is 6,000 less than expected, and 29,000 less than the previous week. The four-week average for unemployment fell by 3,000 to 470,750, and continuing claims fell by 134,000 to 4.50 million. While the number of people receiving unemployment fell to the lowest level in a year, those receiving extended unemployment benefits increased by 198,000 to 5.87 million. This suggests that there's no significant change in the labor market as compared to January. This data is usually not considered to be very important to the mortgage market; the decrease in unemployment had no impact on the mortgage market or mortgage rates this morning.

  • Factory Orders - rose 1.7%, less than the 2.0% increase that was expected, and follows a 1.0% increase the previous month. It's similar to the Durable Goods Orders release that was posted late last week, except this report includes orders for both durable and non-durable goods. Durable goods are items that are expected to last three or more years such as electronics and autos. Examples of non-durable goods are food and clothing. This report had no impact on the mortgage market or mortgage rates this morning.

  • Existing Home Sales Report - released by the National Association of Realtors (NAR), this report will provide us with a measurement of housing sector strength and mortgage credit demand. Existing home sales fell 7.6% in February - analysts were expecting a 1.7% increase. This decline follows declines of 7.2% in January and 16.7% in December. However, existing home sales are up 12.3% from January 2009. While significant, this report had no impact on the mortgage market or mortgage rates this morning.

The news team at CNBC review today's initial jobless claims and productivity data:


In other news, the Treasury Dept will announce later this morning Treasury announces the terms of the Notes and Bond auctions scheduled for next week. The Notes and Bonds are used to finance the massive government debt, and the results of these auctions could result in higher mortgage rates next week.

What's Happening With Mortgage Interest Rates Today:

Moderate to High Volatility. Mortgage rates are again off their historic lows. It appears that the overall economy is improving. However, the Fed continues to auction Treasury Notes and Bonds to pay for the increasing massive government debt, all of which contributes to the fear of inflation. In addition, the Fed is winding down their purchases of mortgage backed securities which is slated to end on March 41st. As such, there's very little potential for lower mortgage rates.

Mortgage rates have improved slightly this past week. However, if you have not yet locked in your mortgage rate yet, please proceed with caution and maintain contact with your mortgage professional as mortgage rates can change for the worse - often without notice.

If you're happy with the interest rate being offered to you and if you don't want to risk mortgage rates moving higher, then you should apply and lock in today. It's better to have locked when you should have floated than it is to float when you should have locked.

Economic Reports, News, and Events Affecting Mortgage Interest Rates Today:

  • There are no economic reports scheduled for release today.

In other news, the Treasure Dept will be auctioning $40 billion in 3-Year Notes and will post results at 1:00 PM ET. The Notes and Bonds are used to finance the massive government debt. If there is a strong demand for the Notes, we should see the bond market move higher during afternoon trading. But a lackluster interest from buyers, particularly international investors, would indicate a waning appetite for longer-term U.S. securities and lead to broader bond selling. The selling of bonds could result in upward revisions to mortgage interest rates.
