| MBS Live Morning: Bonds Making a Case For Consolidation or Just Responding to Stocks? | ||
| 1/21/2022 10:26 AM | ||

| Today was one of the most uneventful days in recent memory for mortgage rates. The average lender is in very similar territory compared to yesterday, and there has been far less intraday volatility through 3pm E.T. While things may be ho-hum over the past 2 days, rates are still in bad shape compared to most of the past 2 years.&nb...Read More | ||
