RateWatch 12-4-2009

Unemployment figures (non-farm payroll) and the jobless rate were both better than expected, so the Fannie Mae 30 year 4.0 coupon dropped like a rock this morning opening down almost 70 basis points. That means mortgage rates are on the rise. We are seeing a correction right now with the market up 13 basis points. We are now at the bottom of the recent trading range. Hopefully we will see this freefall stop and flatten or correct upwards.
