  MonitorBankRates.com — Authority: 110
  Record low fixed conforming  mortgage rates held steady in this week’s Primary Mortgage Market Survey released by Freddie Mac this morning.

• Mortgage Rates Seek Inspiration

  
  — Authority:
  With little economic news in the US and few meaningful developments in the European financial crisis, the mortgage markets in the US have found little to inspire a move in one direction or another.  That is not likely to change today. New home sales are the only data point to consider today.  Expectations were for ...

• Current Mortgage Rates for Monday, May 21, 2012

  
  — Authority:
  Last week mortgage rates plunged to new record lows.  This has become such a common occurrence over the past couple of months that I think everyone is more or less nonplussed by this news.  I don’t see anything in the coming week that will cause rates to move significantly. Today we are seeing stocks rise in ...

• Mortgage Rates Forecast: The Week Ahead for Rates

  
  — Authority:
  Current mortgage rates have staked out new, lower levels to make their home over the past few weeks.  Nothing within the realm of reasonable forecasting appears capable of changing that domicile this coming week.  A very quiet week for US economic data does not appear potent enough to move rates higher.  Nor does ...

• Current Mortgage Rates for Friday, May 18, 2012

  
  — Authority:
  Mortgage rates extended their run into record low territory yesterday, something that could continue in the absence of any economic reports today.  Today’s headlines are going to be dominated by two subjects that I am absolutely tired of hearing about: Facebook’s IPO and debt problems in Europe/Greece. Right ...

• Mortgage Rates Improve as Jobless Claims Remain Flat

  
  — Authority:
  The Weekly Jobless Claims report chart above resembles a lake with barely a ripple.  First-time claims for unemployment insurance benefits stayed at the same level as the previous report suggesting that the US jobs picture is locked-in a period of stagnation–no gains, no losses.  With two other relatively negative ...

• Mortgage Rates: Nudge Me if You Hear Me Snore

  
  — Authority:
  Mortgage rates are heading absolutely nowhere after early trading in mortgage-backed securities this morning.  The weekly jobless claims report continued its snooze inducing run of numbers that has persisted over the last 90 days or so.  Manufacturing data from the Philadelphia Federal Reserve Bank region was weak ...

• Current Mortgage Rates for Thursday, May 3, 2012

  
  — Authority:
  Despite a positive jobs report this morning, we are not seeing much change in the markets so far this morning.   Mortgage rates have been range bound for most of the past couple of weeks, and I don’t think that will change today.  This whole week has really been a waiting game for tomorrow’s nonfarm payroll ...

• Mortgage Rates Stay Put on Abstract Data

  
  — Authority:
  Wow, the economic data in the US is so confusing it would make calculus seem clear to a kindergartener! Every day it seems we get data that conflicts with other data, painting a picture that can only be described as—abstract.  I do not mean abstract art…simply abstract.  Today’s confusion lies in weekly ...

• Employment Change Drop Helps Mortgage Rates

  
  — Authority:
  Employment Change according to ADP has declined substantially in the past month.  But more interesting than even the drop by 80,000 jobs since March is the fact that the jobs that were created were so heavily concentrated in small and mid-sized companies. For policy-makers and economists the challenge is clear: to ...
