30Y/Fannie yield spread : 4 BP 30-Day moving average for delivery rate: 3.81% Good Morning Lenders. The text that follows is only a partial 'thumbnail' of what appears in our publication Daily Economic Insights." Please see instructions below if you would like to see some free samples. * * * If we use terms you are unfamiliar with you can find out what they mean at: http://econonews.net/glossary.html * * * This morning we got a marginally better-than-expected employment report release and it was off to the races for stock prices and of course you know what that likely meant for credit instrument prices. In spite of the wildly gyrating credit markets all week long we are still poised to close the week with no change for the delivery rate. The employment report for August said the ‘official’ unemployment rate rose by 1/10% to 9.6% as the national economy experienced a net job loss of 54,000. The private sector created 67,000 jobs, but laid-off census workers took the overall figure negative. We will expand on this release along with our outlook for rates in the upcoming week. At our normal 10:00 AM ET check the delivery rate (DR) was at 3.83%. As of this writing the DR is at 3.81%, which is precisely where we closed last week. Where is the delivery rate (and the credit markets) likely to head from here?
