Mortgage Market In Review Week of April 14, 2008

MARKET COMMENT

Mortgage bond prices rose slightly last week pushing mortgage interest rates lower. Most of the data showed signs the economy continued to struggle. Unfortunately the Fed minutes showed increased inflation concerns, which tempered any major improvements in mortgage interest rates. Stocks bounced up and down, which resulted in continued whipsaw trading in mortgage bonds.

For the week, interest rates on government and conventional loans fell by about 1/8 to 1/4 of a discount point.

The consumer price index data Wednesday will be the most important event this week. The potential for market volatility is high surrounding the other releases as the economy continues to struggle.

PRODUCER PRICE INDEX

The producer price index is a measure of prices at the producer level and is important because it is the first inflation report to be released each month. Investors are typically able to gain an initial indication of inflationary pressures from the release. If producer prices are increasing, there is a tendency for producers to pass the increases on to consumers in the form of higher priced goods. It is important to note that the PPI is only a measure of goods, while the consumer price index is a measure of goods and services. It is possible for the price of goods to remain stable, while the price of services increases. In this scenario PPI would do little to warn of a change in inflationary pressures, while the CPI report would provide an indication of the inflationary effects of the service component. This distinction between the two reports shows why most analysts view the CPI as a more accurate indicator of inflation. Nevertheless, market participants still gain valuable insight into potential volatility in the financial markets from the PPI.

Current Price of 10 yr Treasury:  $3.42, -.08 (red is good, interest rates are decreasing)
Washington Mutual  is under the gun again. Shares fell 7% in early trading Friday after analysts at Goldman Sachs said the Seattle-based thrift could be looking at $14 billion in additional loan loss provisions this year. The comments come just days after Washington Mutual managed to raise $7 billion by selling stock to a group led by private equity firm TPG, which is run by David Bonderman, a former WaMu director who as part of the deal agreed to rejoin the board. Goldman likes that deal, saying in Friday’s report, “The good news is that we believe WaMu’s $7 billion capital raise should prove sufficient.” But the bad news is that even after $3.5 billion in loan loss provisions for the first quarter - nearly double the thrift’s forecast of just three months ago - WaMu could be facing more problems in its mortgage book. “Our new product-by-product analysis of its mortgage portfolio suggests between $17 billion and $23 billion of embedded losses in WaMu’s current book of business, of which only $3 billion have been absorbed so far,” the Goldman analysts write. “Subsequently, we forecast a $14 billion provision charge in 2008 (up from $8 billion forecast previously).”
