Mortgage rates moved lower last week, regaining some of the ground lost during the previous spike. Overall, markets were noticeably calmer and rates started strong early in the week but slipped on Thursday ahead of the long holiday weekend.

Mortgage rates are likely to remain volatile this week as markets react to ongoing tariff and trade war developments. There remains a risk that any new headlines or actions from the White House could cause rates to spike unexpectedly. Despite the volatility though, rates have not approached previous high levels of the year.

- Economic news: Economic reports this week could move mortgage rates, especially if they show signs of weakness or unexpected strength.

Mortgage rates jumped last week as markets were thrown into turmoil over recently implemented tariffs, even ignoring better than expected inflation data. Not only did rates move drastically day-to-day, lenders often repriced through the day in response to big moves in mortgage backed securities and Treasuries.

Mortgage rates will be tough to predict this week as markets keep reacting to the latest tariff headlines and rumors. After last weekโ€™s spike, thereโ€™s a chance we see some improvement, but itโ€™s far from guaranteed. In times like these, itโ€™s more important than ever to stay in touch with your mortgage pro.

- Tariffs: Any talk of pausing tariffs or implementing new tariffs will likely see mortgage rates shift depending on how markets react to the news.
- The Fed: Markets will be looking for any signs from speaking Fed members that the Fed will step in to help the economy and markets.
- Treasury yields: Although the 10yr Treasury is not the basis for mortgage rates, it does affect pricing for mortgage bonds and when the 10yr Treasury yield rises, mortgage rates often follow.

Mortgage rates improved last week as stocks plummeted and market concerns about a potential recession grew. Friday's jobs data came in mixed, showing more jobs were created in March than were forecast but unemployment ticked up from 4.1 to 4.2%. Overall a great week for rates, but on Friday we saw signs that the rate rally was losing steam.

Rates are starting the week off moving slightly higher, giving back some of last week's gains. Markets will continue to react to the most current tariff headlines, including rumors, which could cause mortgage rates to whipsaw. There is no clear direction that rates will improve or get worse this week, it will all be reactionary.

- Tariffs: The tariffs announced last week were much higher than markets had anticipated, which led stocks to sell off and traders to move money to safe havens including bonds, which helped mortgage rates improve. Any talk that tariffs will be paused or reduced could push rates higher this week.
- Inflation data: The CPI inflation report this week could see mortgage rates react to better or worse inflation than expected.

Although mortgage rates ended the week higher overall, there was reason to celebrate on Friday as the outlook improved significantly. After steadily climbing earlier in the week, rates fell on Friday amid growing market concerns over upcoming tariffs and labor market data.

While early signs suggest mortgage rates may improve this week, that could change quickly depending on how markets respond to tariffs and labor market data. If rates do improve, we might see some of the lowest rates of the year. However, if sentiment shifts later in the week, it could push rates back to last week's highs.

- Tariffs: Markets are growing increasingly concerned that tariffs expected to be implemented this week could lead to stagflationโ€”a scenario where inflation rises while economic growth slows. As a result, investors are moving toward safer assets like bonds, which could help improve mortgage rates.
- Jobs data: This week brings reports on unemployment, job creation, and wages. Tuesdayโ€™s JOLTS report may impact rates, but Fridayโ€™s BLS jobs data is the key event and could drive mortgage rate volatility.

Mortgage rates did improve last week, although not by much. Rates started the week off a bit worse, but improved following the Fed meeting and Fed Chair Powell's press conference. The Fed kept its policy rate unchanged, but a majority of Fed members still forecast two policy rate cuts this year. Mortgage rates were helped by the Fed's outlook that the economy could be weaker this year than previously thought. A weak economy helps keep rates low or move them lower.

After improving last week, we could see mortgage rates creep higher this week as concerns ease over tariffs taking effect in April. The Fed's favored gauge of inflation, the PCE price index, comes out on Friday and could help rates end the week. It is not likely weโ€™ll see rates improve much, if at all, this week.

Other than some small day-to-day movements, rates were basically unchanged last week. Despite concerns that the Trump administration's implementation of tariffs would drive inflation, there are no signs of that yet as consumer prices rose at the slowest pace in four months. Lower inflation than was forecast helped keep mortgage rates steady for the week.

Although this week lacks significant economic data, the Fed meeting and Fed Chair Powell's press conference will take center stage. While a policy rate change is unlikely, Fed members will provide forecasts on future rate movements. The outcome of the meeting could lead to volatility in mortgage rates.

- The Fed: Markets are looking for assurances that the Fed will take action and cut its policy rate if signs of economic slowdown or labor market weakness emerge. However, if Powell and the Fed don't assure markets, we could see rates creep higher to end the week.
- Fed Chair Powell's Press Conference: Powell will hold a press conference following the Fed meeting, which often leads to market volatility and potential rate fluctuations.

Although mortgage rates didn't improve for an eighth week in a row, they did hold steady. Friday's jobs data showed some weakness in the labor market, helping rates open a bit better, but comments from Fed Chair Jerome Powell later in the day that the economy was in a good place and the Fed was "well positioned to wait for greater clarity," caused rates to end the week unchanged.

This week begins with market concerns about a potential economic and labor market slowdown, with some even mentioning the word "recession." However, it is still too early to determine if that will happen. Inflation data, along with other economic and labor market reports, will influence interest rates in the coming days.

- Jobs data: The Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey will be released this week, and if the data points to a weakening labor market, it could help rates improve.
- Inflation data: The consumer price index report will come out on Wednesday, and wholesale inflation data will come out on Thursday. Falling inflation could help rates improve, but higher inflation could push rates higher for a few days.

Mortgage rates once again moved lower last week, and similar to previous weeks the moves weren't large but were consistent. A string of recent data showing economic activity is slowing and consumer spending is falling has helped mortgage rates fall to the best levels of the year, although still much higher than last September.

This week brings a few economic reports, but more importantly, it will bring January's jobs data. Signs of labor market weakening, on top of the economic weakness we've seen recently, could help mortgage rates continue lower. If rates do move lower, it will likely continue at a slow and steady pace, as we've seen in the past few weeks.

-Jobs data: Multiple reports this week about jobs and unemployment, although the Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey will not be released until next week. Friday's BLS jobs data will have the biggest effect on mortgage rates to end the week.
-Market momentum: Markets have grown less optimistic about the economy, and concerns are rising that tariffs taking effect this week will bring about retaliatory actions from other countries.
