MBS UPDATE: Drama Done

By:

NO REPRICE FOR WORSE

Immediately following the Treasury's auction of $14bn in 30 yr bonds, MBS prices fell as the demand for long term debt was apathetic. (2.02btc. 34% overseas participation)

The Yield curve is flattening out again and the spread on the FN 5.0 is now tightening. This morning it was as much as 3 ticks wider vs. the 5 year Treasury. That is a good thing for the time being...we are keeping pace and gaining on Treasuries!!!

If no reprice received...rates are stable for now.
