Wait 'till rates swing back down and rise again before you call it over. Still lots of adjustables and 7 percent plus loans out there. Lot's of people put off doing a refi that would benefit even at these levels. The reaction in bond market was pretty severe and I'm expecting a bounce. In fact it's happening as write this.

there may be one last surge of refi activity for the holdouts trying to time the "bottom"

as far as i am concerned this is tacit admission on the part of FNM that they know mortgage refi's will hit a wall.

the only reason to understate current earnings "fudge" them now is to "manage" them in the future because they understand the previous activity is unsustainable.
