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.

📈 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸:
- 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'𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁: 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗳𝘂𝗿𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 👍
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.

📈 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸:
-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.

Rates continued to creep slightly lower last week, despite it being a short week with little in the way of economic data. It is important to note though that most of the improvement is in rebate pricing, the credit your lender gives towards costs or a reduced cost for choosing a lower rate (less paid in points). Rates themselves have not moved much lower.

Mortgage rates have the potential to improve this week, particularly if current market trends persist. Concerns about tariffs and inflation have eased, allowing rates to stabilize after previous increases earlier in the year. However, after seeing rates improve the last couple of weeks, we could be due for a slight turnaround.

📈 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸:
- Inflation data: This week brings the Fed's favored gauge of inflation, the personal consumption expenditure report. Released on Friday, the data could help rates improve or worsen at the end of the week depending on if inflation increases.
- Market momentum: Markets have grown much less concerned over the effect of tariffs, and bond yields have improved because of it, which helps mortgage rates move lower over time.

Many online ads are still advertising rates that are simply not attainable just to get you to contact them, but they can't really close you at that rate (this is often called bait-and-switch). 😡

These ads can make you question if you're getting a good rate with your local mortgage professional, or if you should be looking elsewhere.

You don't have to fear you'll overpay or be taken advantage of when you work with me, and you can be assured that the rates I quote you are not bait-and-switch rates like these online ads.

Rates last week were volatile day-to-day, moving higher midweek when consumer inflation data came out showing inflation for January was higher than expected. By week's end, however, rates had recovered and after weak retail sales data on Friday ended the week slightly better.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸'𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁: 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 👍
This week is light on economic data, as well as a short week with markets closed for Presidents Day, which makes it likely that rates will not move much. There may be some day-to-day movement, but unless there is a surprise event, rates will likely end the week relatively unchanged.

📈 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸:
- Presidents Day: Markets will be closed on Monday, and rates won't change.
- Tariffs: Although many proposed tariffs have been postponed, continued concerns from traders could play at least a small role in mortgage rates for the week.
- The Fed: Markets are still contemplating the potential for Fed rate cuts later this year, and the minutes from the last Fed meeting will be released this week. However, Fed rate cut expectations will only play a small role in mortgage rates this week.

Rates improved last week, even as jobs data indicated a resilient labor market despite the Fed maintaining higher policy rates. However, the gains were small, with rates remaining relatively steady for the second consecutive week instead of seeing the expected volatility.

A lot is happening this week that could impact mortgage rates, with inflation being the biggest factor. While some day-to-day rate fluctuations are expected, significant swings in either direction are unlikely.

📈 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸:
- Tariffs: While still making headlines, traders seem less concerned about tariffs, and they are not having a significant impact on mortgage rates.
- Fed speakers: This week features several speeches from Fed officials, with the most notable being Fed Chair Powell’s semiannual testimony before Congress, where he will discuss the economy, interest rates, and inflation outlook.
-Inflation: Consumer inflation data will come out on Wednesday, and is expected to have the biggest impact on mortgage rates this week. Higher inflation could push rates up, while inflation in line with expectations should keep rates steady.

Mortgage rates remained steady last week, with minimal reaction to the Fed meeting and Fed Chair Powell's press conference. The Fed left its policy rate unchanged as expected, but didn't give any clear indication that it would stop cutting rates this year. Inflation data for the week also came in as expected, helping keep mortgage rates stable.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸'𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁: 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗯𝗲 𝘃𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗲 ⚠️
Last week was calmer than expected, but this week could bring volatility. Markets are responding to tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China, with stocks reacting more than bonds. Mortgage rates have already priced in the expected tariffs, showing minimal movement. Labor market data later this week could influence mortgage rates.

📈 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸:
- Tariffs: Markets will respond to tariffs and any countermeasures or retaliatory actions from affected countries.
- Labor market data: This week brings multiple reports about the labor market, including job turnover and layoffs, new jobs created, and unemployment numbers. Signs of labor market strength could pressure mortgage rates higher, while data signaling a weaker labor market could help rates.
