Episode 18 - Mortgage Backed Securities - Rates up, Man Down
Ryan talks about mortgage backed securities and how the fed fund rate does not affect long term interest rates.
Also, Bryon is out this week with Covid.
In episode 18, the host Ryan Buys provides a market update, reflecting on the fluctuating speculations and actions of the Federal Reserve (Fed) regarding interest rate cuts amidst concerns over inflation.
Despite earlier predictions, Fed rate cuts seem postponed possibly until late summer or September, contingent on inflation reaching the desired 2%. The discussion emphasizes that mortgage rates are primarily influenced by mortgage-backed securities rather than the Fed's fund rate or 10-year treasury notes, with inflation and employment being critical factors in determining home buyers loan rates.
The host reflects on past instances where home buying rates decreased despite Fed inaction, highlighting the complexity of market dynamics. The future trajectory remains uncertain, subject to the Fed's assessment of economic indicators.
Listeners are encouraged to reach out with questions, underscoring the ongoing market unpredictability.
