While mortgage rates INCREASED 30bp, 10 Year Treasury rates INCREASED 25bp. The net difference is a 5bp decrease in a spread of 282bp. With the historical spread being 168 there now exists a “safety cushion” of 114bp above this historical spread.
The historic spread between the 10 Year Treasury and mortgage rates is 168pb (see the green line, right axis) and currently, there is a 110bp above the historical norm. For this spread to return to the historical norm, either mortgage rates will decrease or 10 Year Treasury rates will increase.
