If you have been following me at all, you likely have seen me explain how fixed rates are based on the 5 year bond yield rate. And that is why rates can go up or down daily.
One of my lender partners, RMG, frequently sends out great emails about what is affecting mortgage rates. He calls this one Deal or No Deal. Very fittingly.
The deal is when our friendly neighbour to the South says that they are close to a deal with Iran and the bond goes down allowing potential rate decreases. And well, no deal is friends off, which causes the bonds to increase, and potentially rates with it.
Just a little piece of information for you to start your week.
See? It's not all about Frankie and Copper over here!
