ALERT:
Negative Reprice Risk Picks up as MBS Hit Lows
We're seeing a thicker than normal volume of trading following the Fed's scheduled buyback in the long end. The Fed clearly favored the shorter duration offerings (2036-2039), and left most of the 2040+ offers out to dry.
It's not uncommon to see a bit of a whipsaw after scheduled Fed buying, but it normally hasn't left us at the worst levels of the day as it is currently.
Fannie 3.5's are down 6 ticks at 103-15 and bounced as low as 103-13. 10yr yields touched 1.98 and currently sit at 1.977. For lenders that priced early enough in the day, negative reprices are a risk.

Adam Dahill : "I'm about 80% locked but just got a crop of new deals so I'm debating taking my 60 day price"
Andy Pada : "I've been locking"
Mike Drews : "oh..well then THAT makes more sense"
Brent Borcherding : "2.038 to be precise."
Brent Borcherding : "Looks like we'll be sitting right at 2.04 on the 10 by tomorrow afternoon, so NFP can help determine whether we maintain the range."
