Hope you are right but what I’ve been reading is saying it’s not as good as people had hoped. With the Fed announcing another .50 interest rate hike, mortgage rates could move back closer to 7% this week.

A known Fed rate increase is about as baked into current rates as anything can possibly be.
It is in a lender’s best interest to sell the idea rates are going up and you should borrow now vs waiting. That conflict of interest alone should make you question their judgment, and arguing that the Fed increase will cause mortgage/long term rates to jump is asinine. The Fed is raising rates .50% on Wednesday, but CPI on Tuesday is infinitely more important to long term rates.

What’s everyone’s opinion on the CPI Tuesday? Higher or lower than the October report? If it comes out lower, interest rates should come down I believe. It it’s higher than rates will move higher.

On month to month
Year over year was a significant drop
Why would a fed hike at .5% send rates up?
Its exactly what everyone expects and will show signs inflation is tamed which drives rates down

This is correct.
Current rates baked in a 0.5.
Fed commentary will influence future rates more than fed actions.
I would not be surprised to see the fed act a little doveish this week to gauge the reaction.

What will affect mortgage rates more? The CPI report that was positive today or the Fed tomorrow if they hike up .50 rather than .75?

What the Fed says not what they do. Everyone knows its a .5 hike. Raging Bullard or Powell could come out and ruin everything

I don’t think the fed is going to influence mortgage rates too much more unless they go crazy aggressive.
Demand is going to influence rates more at this point, in my opinion.
Already seeing rates drop because of demand destruction.
