Delaware mortgage rates tried to move lower last week but ended the week higher after good economic news was reported coming out of China. The mortgage bonds tried to rally but failed to move above the 200 days moving average and were turned lower on Friday after China reported signs of economic recovery, as exports, imports, and lending soared. Mortgage bonds are still trading in a tight range and would need to break above the 200 days moving average in order for home loan rates to move back toward all-time historic lows. We are recommending carefully FLOATING your Delaware mortgage rate on Monday to see if mortgage bonds can move above the 200 days moving average if bonds move lower then I would recommend LOCKING your Delaware mortgage rate.

Delaware Mortgage Rates tried to move lower last week but ended the week where they started as the stock market continued to push higher. Mortgage bonds traded in a tight range last week and couldn’t break above the 200 days moving average. We can start the week FLOATING to see if mortgage bonds can try again to break through resistance and move home loan rates lower. If bonds break below the floor of support then we need to switch to a LOCKING stance quickly. The long term outlook for rates is to move higher as the downward trend in mortgage bonds continues.

Delaware mortgage rates tried to move lower last week but rebounded higher when initial jobless claims were reported on Thursday, January 24, 2013, at 330,000 which was 5,000 less than the week before. This continues the trend of lower claims and is the lowest in 5 years. The unemployment rate surprisingly stayed the same at 7.8%.  This sent mortgage bonds lower and resumed the downward trend for bonds.   Mortgage interest rates moved higher in response and ended the week higher than they have been in 4 months.  The bond broke through the support that held last week but we may see rates bounce off the 200-day moving average so I am recommending FLOATING your Delaware mortgage rate to see if bonds can recover some but be mindful that if support is broken at 200-day moving average, rates will jump higher and fast.
