What will mortgage interest rates do tomorrow? Mortgage professionals are voting in our daily poll.

Mortgage rates have stayed relatively the same today.  The bond market has been less volatile than in recent weeks, and with no complaints.  Jobless claims data released yesterday indicated a 2.3% job growth and weak oil earnings caused an increase in Mortgage Backed Securities prices.  Some important news in the mortgage industry is the CFPB has released a spanish version of the "Your Home Loan Toolkit", which is designed to provide borrowers with disclosures and information related to "TRID".  The TRID rule be implemented on October 3rd.  Lenders must provide borrowers with this information no later than three days after they complete an application.  

Commentary yesterday spoke about the drop in commodity prices.  It is thought that in light of this, the economy will suffer, but there is also the possibility of a positive inpact on developed market economies. We are awaiting the release of Chicago PMI and Michigan Consumer Sentiment numbers.
