The following information is current as of Wednesday 1-16-2013 and will help you understand today's best mortgage rates.

Market Commentary

Market Analyst: Dan Rawitch

Here is the link to todays video http://www.ratewatch.com/ratewatchnow.html

So far this morning, only CPI was released and the number was good...right in line with expectations.  Little to no inflation certainly gives the Fed needed ammo for keeping rates lower.

Later today is the Beige book and Industrial production.  Stay alert but it looks like we remain somewhat range bound.  In the video..I suggest which end of the range we touch first.
