Mortgage rates are still trending up, as last weeks wage inflation numbers was not pretty. This week we also have more wage inflation in the Consumer Price Index or CPI, which will really dictate rates. This will be the most looked at report this week. We also have the US selling debt in the form of Treasury auctions that will play a roll in rates as well. Anticipating rates worsening this week.

Mortgage rates up last week, but not as much as they could of been. All eyes are going to be on 3 items this week. 1-Trump summit, if things good good, rates will worsen. 2-Fed Meeting on Wednesday, .25 is baked into rates but it will be the comments that will touch off rate increase or decrease. And 3rd, European and Japanese Reserve Banks will all comment his week as well. It should not be a great week for rates.

After a crazy roller coaster week, all focused on Senate Tax Reform Bill, interest rates ticked up, just a little.  This week will focus on Reconciliation of the 2 Tax Bills, along with N. Korea.  Final Bill that will be sent to the President will more than likely cause a pretty good rally for stocks, thus selling of Bonds, thus higher interest rates.  But War with N. Korea will cause just opposite affect.
