MARKET REPORTS & ANALYSIS
- Rate Lock Advisory. My advice is to Float today but continue to lock on price improvements. News and technical indicators provide no sign of rates changing direction. In this uncertain market. Float rates at your own risk.
- Wednesday Rate Market. There is no financial news scheduled Wednesday that is expected to move mortgage rates. Should see it move sideways.
