Rates fell for the first time in weeks last week on news that there could soon be an end to the conflict with Iran, despite stronger than expected employment data. Markets grew less worried about the possibility that the Fed may be forced to hike its policy rate this year rather than cut, which also helped ease pressure on mortgage rates.

It may prove to be overly optimistic, but there are still plenty of ways this week could play out with mortgage rates holding steady or even improving a bit further. That said, there is always the risk of volatility while military action continues in the Middle East, so stay in touch with your mortgage professional.

โข Military action in Iran: There continues to be talk of a ceasefire, although it remains elusive. If a resolution is reached with Iran, rates will likely improve. Markets seem to think there will be a resolution soon, and mortgage rates have benefited from that belief.
โข Economic data: There is an inflation report as well as a few smaller economic reports this week, although it is unlikely any of the data will cause any waves for mortgage rates.
