The Day Ahead: Moody's Questions U.S. Credit Rating. Bonds Shrug Off News - 51 minutes ago
Posted To: MBS CommentaryEquity futures are trading higher this morning despite word from Moody’s that it would have to question America’s triple-A credit rating unless it provides a credible plan to tackle its growing deficit. Steve Hess , a top sovereign debt analyst at Moody’s, said the U.S. appears to have “no plan” to reduce the deficit. “Can the United States do it is the big question right now and we are not sure either way,” he told Dow Jones Newswires. “We will wait and see what happens in the next couple of years on this front.” Meanwhile, economic confidence in Europe rose for a second straight month to its highest level in more than two years.

Can Mortgage Rates Go Any Lower? - 17 hours ago
Posted To: Mortgage Rate WatchWell, here we are on "hump day" and mortgage rates are still detached from the price fluctuations of the secondary mortgage market.

Posted To: The Garrett Watts ReportWe all know the mortgage business can be extremely profitable at times. We also know it can be disastrous at other times. Regulators and law makers have created an environment that makes us feel like a pin ball, bouncing aimlessly from one bumper to another Regardless of all these issues, most mortgage lending professionals stay in the business too long and never retire. I recently had the opportunity to talk to an “old timer”. He is in his mid-70s and still looking for an opportunity to manage/operate a company again. While his previous companies were well run and profitable, I was perplexed as to why he wished to do it all over again at the age of 75, especially in this environment. I had the opportunity to chat with a younger mortgage banker who had already sold a company, made...(read more)Forward this article via email: Send a copy of this story to someone you know that may want to read it.
