| Not Reading Too Much Into Friday"s Weakness | ||
| 6/13/2025 2:32 PM | ||
| Not Reading Too Much Into Friday"s Weakness At first glance, with only one report on the calendar, it"s only logical to give Consumer Sentiment credit for sparking today"s bond market selling spree. Closer inspection adds nuance. First off, selling began in earnest at 8:20am--the unofficial open...Read More | ||
| Mortgage Rates Bounce But Remain Lower on The Week | ||
| 6/13/2025 2:11 PM | ||
| The top tier 30yr fixed mortgage rate index rose 0.04% on Friday, which would be a medium-sized defeat in and of itself. In the broader context, however, it was an acceptable adjustment on what has otherwise been a solid week. Specifically, today"s rates are still 0.08% lower than last Friday"s. There were no standout individual sources of i...Read More | ||

| Hey, for you LOs who think things are slow, you can always go into golf. The best example of this is ex-LO Ben Griffin who has racked up $11 million in PGA winnings! A large number of professional athletes, active or retired, seem to live in Florida, Texas, or Arizona (taxes and climate being what they are). Of those, who suckles up to the federal ...Read More | ||
| Opening Weaker Despite Israel/Iran Headlines | ||
| 6/13/2025 8:53 AM | ||
| By 8pm last night, news of Israel"s attack on Iran erased an entire week of stock market gains and pushed bond yields to the lowest levels in more than a month. Given the alarming nature of some of the headlines, it"s only natural to assume that markets were only getting started with the "risk-off" trading pattern. Natural, yes... but not nec...Read More | ||
| Thursday"s Data Offered No Objection to Overnight Rally | ||
| 6/12/2025 3:13 PM | ||
| Thursday"s Data Offered No Objection to Overnight Rally Thursday"s PPI was just as tame as Wednesday"s CPI and, for a moment, it looked like bonds were going to offer an encore performance of the post-CPI rally. But in Thursday"s case, bonds had already rallied nearly that much in the overnight sessio...Read More | ||

| “I was always a home builder, but lately I’ve developed an apartment complex.” Here in Florida, so many structures are made of stucco because stucco is fairly inexpensive, creates a great finished look, and is easy to apply to homes constructed with concrete blocks. But it can be damaged as a house shifts and settles over time. Companies like Icon,...Read More | ||
| Higher Bar For Additional Gains Despite Lower PPI | ||
| 6/12/2025 9:02 AM | ||
| This morning"s PPI did its best impression of yesterday"s CPI with the core monthly number coming in at 0.1 vs 0.3 forecast. In yesterday"s case, this was good enough for a reasonably big rally. Today, not so much. While bonds did manage to add to overnight gains in the immediate wake of the data, they"re pushing back above pre-data yie...Read More | ||
| Nice Rally on Data and Auction Results | ||
| 6/11/2025 3:19 PM | ||
| Nice Rally on Data and Auction Results Wednesday ended up being a straightforward session for bonds with a large CPI beat prompting a decently swift rally in the bond market.
