Atlanta, GA Market Update - August 12, 2010

By
Mortgage and Lending with Guaranteed Rate NMLS# 2611 NMLS #151088

The initial jobless claims unexpectedly rose to 484,000 in the week ending August 7.  This is the highest level since February. 

Equity markets were down with treasuries relatively flat in the morning.  Mortgages continue to be under selling pressure due to profit taking after prices reached historic lows yesterday.  At 1:00 pm EST, the results of the $16 billion 30 year auction were announced.  The bond market had a negative reaction to the news causing mortgage rates to slightly worsen.
