Last week was a spectacular week for mortgage rates. As the Federal Reserve indicated that they will NOT raise rates in 2019 and may only raise rates 1x in 2020. Further concern about a recession is keep rates lower. Economic news is pointing towards a slow down, and past Fed Chairman came out today and actually indicated that the Fed may have to lower rates again. RATE ARE GREAT!

Mortgage rates managed to squeak out a small improvement last week, but we are starting out this week worsening, as Trump extended Tariff hold and it looks like there could be a Trade Deal with China. This could be bad for rates as a good trade deal with ROCK the Stocks and typically sends bonds yields higher, which will send mortgage rates higher.
Mortgage rates trended higher last week as rumors of a trade deal with China popped up. All eyes will be on China and trade deal. If we get a trade deal, Stocks should shoot up and mortgage rates should also rise. And also watch the Brexit news, this will be a rate influences as well.
Mortgage rates worsened towards the end of last week, but still showed an overall improvement. Today we are seeing rates worsen and inflation is back in the news. Rates are pretty good, this will will either set a nice floor or make a breakout to higher numbers.
Mortgage rates worsened a little last week, and stock rallied for 5 days. I am thinking rates may worsen this week as well, with a potential China resolution on trade coming and Companies start announcing last quarter earnings. We also have housing data, inflation data, and Retail Sales for December. If all of these are good, Stocks should rally which will drive mortgage rates higher. .
With the sell off last week in stocks, it was anticipated at rates would improve nicely, but when it all settled, we have just a slight improvement. This week is HUGE as we have the Federal Reserve on Wednesday and LOTS of data on Friday, right before a major holiday. Will the Fed Raise rates (which would be good for us) on Wednesday, or wait until January? This week is going to be rough.
