April 26th Market Update with Dan Rawitch

0:01 Hey everybody, Dan Rawitch here, happy hump day. So treasuries are actually behaving very well despite very, very strong durable goods.
0:13 And durable orders is something I've always watched carefully because. Is it's the big ticket items. These are the things that when people are really worried, that's where they pull in their wallets.
0:26 They're big ticket items. So that really did surprise me. Tomorrow. It's the bigger day tomorrow is GDP and that's going to just really decide this market.
0:41 Except after we get this number, the next day is even more important, which is personal income, personal spending and PCE prices huge.
0:50 So probably going to stay in a fairly tight range. Until we get through tomorrow and the next day, but tomorrow you could see some really wild swings, depending on where GDP comes in.
1:05 The consensus is 2%. So if you come in, you know, less than that, I think you could see. So the consensus is 3%.
1:15 So if you come in, you know, less than that, you know, less than that, you know, less than that. So I'm talking about very psychological, very important, and we broke below it.
1:22 And once we broke below that, we talked about this 3.45 Fibonacci level being really important. And so far it is staying below that Fib level, which means that there's a fairly decent probability.
1:35 That it gets down and tests the low of 3.25. For our system, we do have a cell signal, 82% bearish.
1:45 And the only thing we would wait for is it to clear this dot. So below 3, 3, 6, you could really see this thing.
1:55 And then, MBS is, you know, fairly tight range. It did get as high as 101. And that's an iron ceiling here.
2:04 Has been many, many times. Really critical level. So I'm not surprised we failed there. And I believe, and I think I said that we would probably stay in a tight range between 100 dot 50 and 101.
2:20 And that's going to happen. And that forms this pennant, which will always not all. We'll often see these pennants ahead of really big news days because the market is trying to decide what to do.
2:33 And so it'll tend to come right up the middle on these things and then not pick a direction until after the news.
2:43 OCD wants me to draw this differently. Something like that. There you go. All right. So that's it. I would just kind of be cautious here, although I don't think too much more is going to happen tomorrow.
2:56 Just watch this kind of pennant formation. If it falls below par 50. Could be a problem. All right, guys, that's all I've got.
3:04 Take care. Bye.
Thought of the day
When we worry about what others think of us, we surrender our power to them. Be respectful and compassionate but stop worrying about other people's opinions. True strength comes from inner confidence.

"My experience with Ben as a loan Agent was absolutely amazing. Ben is extremely knowledgeable, dedicated, detail orientated, and very thoughtful; he walked me through each step of The Process. My entire family and I will be using Ben for any future purchasing. Thank you so very much, Ben."

"Ben and his team were awesome! They were able to get us locked in with a great rate They worked so hard to get to closing that we got the clear to close 5 days ahead of schedule! On top of this, Ben and his team were very much available whenever we called/ texted. What I appreciated most (especially as a first time homebuyer) is that Ben took the time to explain the home buying process, provided some guidance to help us get approved, and gave some history of the market. He's very personable, and actually seemed interested in working with us, which was very different from the other lenders we spoke with. We highly recommend working with Ben and his team at loanDepot to secure your home loan!"

"Let me start by saying, Ben and his team are amazing. We have bought homes in the past and this by far was the smoothest transaction, that we have been involved in. Right from the start, Ben and his team kept us posted on every step of the loan process. There were a couple of calls from me, with lots of questions. He was always reassuring and always had a positive outlook. At the beginning of the buying process, we were referred to a lender that our real estate agent used all the time. We know that because our last house we bought, we used his lender. When it came down to the final numbers, the lender quoted us a high interest rate and we would have to pay a point, around 3300. We decided to call LoanDepo because our current loan is though them. We were referred to Ben and his team. I asked Ben if he could get us a lower interest rate and we needed to close in THREE weeks,” yes” I said that right, THREE weeks.. Ben’s response, “I got you, no problem”. He not only got us a significantly lower interest rate but we paid no points and closed in THREE weeks, which is amazing to me. Ben and his team, work hard and get the job done. Ben and his team are fantastic and amazing. Thank you, so much Ben and team....I appreciate your dedication and hard work.I loved chatting with you, very friendly and professional. We will be back to buy another house and use you and your team, again."

"This is only the second house I have ever purchased so I thought I would mention the comments from the folks who do this all the time about Ben. My real estate agent and the closer at the title company raved about how timely, professional, and thorough Ben was during the process. For me, I had no headaches and he made me laugh. I would recommend working with Ben without any reservations.""
