Delaware Mortgage Rates drifted higher last week and continued on the long term trend of higher mortgage rates moving toward the 5% range in 2014. Mortgage bonds have been selling off moving interest rates higher since the Federal Reserve announced that they would begin tapering the asset purchase program (QE3) in January 2014 but mortgage bonds were able to find a bottom last week. If you look at the mortgage bond chart below you can see that mortgage bonds have been able to find a level of support last week at about 102.49 and were able to bounce off this support on Friday with a nice green candle. The long term trend for mortgage bonds is for them to sell off and move lower but in the short term, we may see bonds move higher after Friday’s bounce off support.
