Q2 GDP had it's 2nd revision today, which went from 2.1% annualized to 2.0%. It's forecasts called for 1.9%, Also, Pending Home Sales dropped 2.5% from June to July. Stocks are in a Good Mood today, as they like comments out of China that they stated they will no immediately retaliate to the US' counter with additional tariffs last Friday, and they intend to meet face-to-face next month to continue their trade negotiations. MBS are currently down 11bps. They're sitting where we started yesterday, so Mortgage Rates remain Unchanged from yesterday's pricing.
