MARKET REPORTS & ANALYSIS
- Bank of Japan's shocking move to negative interest rates this morning caused a stampede into U.S. bonds and is great news for pricing.
- Core Durable Goods Report was much weaker than expected and these results are typically positive mortgage pricing.
- FOMC: Leaves Key Interset Rate Unchanged: The market is viewing this as telegraphing no rate hike in March and this is generally good for mortgage pricing but this is bascially what was expected and not a shock to the system.
- January Consumer Confidence 98.1 versus estimate of 96.5. The Consumer Confidence is a very strong reading and under "normal" circumstances would cause mortgage rate prices to worsen. Currently, oil pricing and a pause before the Fed meeting is providing good price support.
