More on what is to come and the market for rates off slightly this morning direction is up on rates

MBS  - 5/32 @ 102.30    10 Yr Treasury - 5/32 @ 1.9190      DOW  - 37 @ 15,081

 

Stronger than expected Retail Sales data hurt MBS this morning, extending the losses seen last week. April Retail Sales rose 0.1% from March, above the consensus for a decline of 0.3%. If consumer spending continues to remain healthy, it will reduce investor concerns about a spring slump in the economy. No more economic data will be released today.
