MBS UPDATE: BIDS MOVING HIGHER

By:

Quick price update while I write morning commentary...

MBS is moving higher while the yield curve flattens. The 5yr Treasury price is up 2/32 and the 10 yr Treasury price is up 10 ticks. Stocks opened to the upside after better than expected housing starts but have since turned negative.
