		<description><![CDATA[This week is nearly gone and we have seen more action, both up and down on the mortgage market. So, where did we end up after the Fed’s announcement yesterday? Well, no surprises, they aren’t going to lower the rate to less than zero. However they did say some things in their announcement that mortgage backed security buyers didn’t care for, like,  "economic conditions are likely to warrant exceptionally low levels of the Federal Funds Rate for some time" and that "inflation pressures will remain subdued in coming quarters."

The purchase of mortgage backed securities (MBS) has given stability to the mortgage market until today when we saw an across the board drop in prices in both stocks and bonds. The 10 year Treasury was especially hard hit, but MBS sales took a significant hit on today&#8217;s market too. Intraday repricing was the norm. Afternoon interest rates were nearly 1/2 percent higher than morning rates. Overall, another interesting day on the mortgage market.</span></strong> <a href='http://eugeneloanguy.com/2009/01/29/fed-announces-no-change-but-staggers-markets/' rel="nofollow">Read More</a></p>]]></content:encoded>
