Rates are up sharply compared to last Friday due to the fiscal cliff bailout the country received in the 11th hour when Democrats and Republicans made a decision.  It’s very difficult to see where rates are going to be this time next week as the market is very volatile.  MBS are down -1/32 (FNMA 30-yr 3.0 at 103.30), around 24/32 lower than yesterday at this time. Unfavorable re-pricing took place yesterday. Early investors may have priced at much lower levels. It has been an extremely volatile morning following the release of the Employment report.  Please keep a close eye on the market this coming couple of weeks in order to see if an upward trend is going to continue or will this 0.25 jump in rates will bounce back to numbers we have been seeing in the past few months.
