Mortgage backed securities (MBS) closed up 22 basis points today 103.09 having burst through resistance above and approached some of the highest levels of all time. Despite an excellent jobs report which initially sent mortgage bonds reeling, fears about the high yields of Italian bonds bonds forced another round of "safe haven" trading as money flowed out of stocks into bonds.
