Tony, although it is historically quiet this time of year. I wouldn't relax for a second in this market.

Larry, I am always interested in what you have to say and looking forward to your MBS thoughts.

I was able to refi my house 30 yrs fixed conventional at 4.99%.  This from two loans, one at 6.5 and one at 8.5, and the apprasial came in at only 1.3% lower than in 2006.  A good feeling indeed =)

Way to go Chris.  Glad to see that you were able to take advantage of the lowest rates I have seen in almost forty years.
