Schneiderman today filed a lawsuit against several of the nation’s largest banks charging that the creation and use of a private national mortgage electronic registry system known as MERS has resulted in...(read more) | Posted To: MND NewsWire Three major banks and Virginia-based MERSCORP, Inc. and its subsidiary Mortgage Electronic Registrations Systems ( MERS ) were sued Friday by the state of New York. The suit, filed by the state's Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman , charges that the creation and use of a privately national electronic registration system, MERS, "has resulted in a wide range of deceptive and fraudulent foreclosure filings in New York state and federal courts, harming homeowners and undermining the integrity of the judicial foreclosure process." Further, the lawsuit charges that the employees and agents of the three banks, Bank of America, J.P. Morgan Chase, and Wells Fargo , acting as "MERS certifying officers," have repeatedly submitted court documents containing false and misleading information that made...(read more) | Posted To: Mortgage Rate Watch The monthly Employment Situation Report was released at 8:30am this morning, with much better-than-expected results. Stocks rallied sharply and most every interest rate in fixed-income markets moved higher. The economic optimism created by this sort of data tends to increase demand for riskier investments like stocks and lower demand for things like fixed-income notes and bonds. MBS (the "mortgage backed securities" that most directly govern mortgage rates) fall into this fixed-income sector, and definitely weakened following the jobs data. As a result, Mortgages Rates moved higher at their fastest pace in some time, traversing most of this week's territory, but leaving Best-Execution rates mostly at 3.875%. (learn more about how we calculate Best-Execution in THIS POST ). We'd said yesterday...(read more) | Posted To: MND NewsWire Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner told the Financial Stability Oversight Council that the financial system is getting stronger and safer and that much of the excess risk-taking and careless financial practices that caused so much damage has been forced out. However, he said, "These gains will erode over time if we are not able to put our full reforms into place." He outlined the basic framework has been laid, with new global agreements to limit leverage, rules for managing the failure of a large firm and the new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) up and running, and the majority of the new safeguards for derivatives markets proposed. Geithner ticked off the major accomplishments of reform. First, banks now face much tougher limits on risk which are critical to reducing the risk of...(read more) | Posted To: MND NewsWire HOPE NOW, the voluntary private sector alliance of mortgage industry stakeholders, recently concluded a two day conference in Washington which focused on assistance to military homeowners and foreclosure mediation. One group of servicers, investors, and housing counselors met with regulators, investors, and members of the military to discuss ways of reaching military families facing foreclosure because of their unique situation which includes Permanent Change of Station and other issues. A second group of HOPE NOW stakeholders met with judges, attorneys, and several state housing agencies to discuss best standards related to foreclosure mediation. John Dalton, President of the Housing Policy Council, former Secretary of the Navy, and a panelist at the conference said "The current housing crisis...(read more) | Posted To: MBS Commentary There is plenty of play-by-play on the post-NFP sell-off in the MBS Recap . If you haven't seen those updates already, that's a good place to start, and in terms of where MBS are and what they're doing, there's not much more to say. So we'll focus instead on the longer term implications, look at charts, and consider the week ahead. First off, here's some pictorial accompaniment for today's movement. MBS turn out to have been relatively drama-free since the initial sell-off, returning to bounce fairly convincingly for a second time at 103-18. Even if MBS were now to break below that pivot, volume has basically dried up for the week, leaving the big bounces seen in the earlier heavy volume as the more significant from a technical perspective. To quantify the relative change in volume on the day...(read more) | Posted To: MBS Commentary MBS Live : MBS MID-DAY Open MBS Live Dashboard FNMA 3.5 103-23 : -0-11 FNMA 4.0 105-20 : -0-06 FNMA 4.5 106-26 : -0-04 FNMA 5.0 108-01 : -0-01 GNMA 3.5 105-03 : -0-10 GNMA 4.0 107-25 : -0-06 GNMA 4.5 109-05 : -0-03 GNMA 5.0 110-29 : -0-01 FHLMC 3.5 103-16 : -0-09 FHLMC 4.0 105-09 : -0-06 FHLMC 4.5 106-10 : -0-03 FHLMC 5.0 107-20 : -0-01 Pricing as of 11:02 AM EST Morning Market Updates A recap of MBS Market Updates provided by MND Analysts and streamed live to the MBS Live Dashboard . 10:20AM : ALERT: MBS Struggle to Hold Lows Following 2nd Round of Econ Data Admittedly, ISM Non-Manufacturing and Factory Orders are not the most critical market-moving economic reports.
