Hi Donnie,..Re:.What do u mean..exactly Most times when contracting for a new home, we have a time span within which we can 'lock into' a preferred rate, even though rates vary weekly. Last week or the week before might have been the low of the cycle unless we get some safe haven buying because of Brazil or some other unknown in the next months. The other clue that we might have reached the low of the cycle is the issuance of new corporate bonds which try to issue debt at the lowest possible rate as evidenced by the recent offerings. biz.yahoo.com US CORP BONDS - High-grade supply keeps flowing biz.yahoo.com CIT Group sells $600 mln in five-year debt biz.yahoo.com BankAmerica expected to issue $1 bln debt These issues are also competing with the treasuries and winning as evidenced by bond market selling. economeister.com US TREASURIES END DOWN SHARPLY ON HEDGING TRADES, STRONG US DATA So, when I said lock in last week, that meant you should have probably already locked in a rate when yields got below 5% several weeks ago. <g> Hope that answers, Lee
