Eugene Mortgage Rates | First 2009 Update

Posted by Dennis Pease on Friday, January 2nd, 2009 at 7:46pm.

Happy New Year 2009Welcome to 2009!  The stock market had a sizable rally today in a wave of optimism, which sent investors out of the bond market, and likewise pushed mortgage rates up.  Next week brings several important economic reports including the employment report next Friday.  These should handily squash that optimism, and possibly bring rates down again.  However, we'll wait and see.  There is bound to be a great deal of volatility in the markets for several months yet.  Of course, it will benefit all of us to keep the optimism alive.  

I hope your Holidays went well, and you're ready for a brand new year.

Have great weekend!
