Market commentary

Weaker than expected Consumer Spending data helped push bond prices higher this morning, after the steep Thursday sell off. Consumer spending accounts for 70% of the US economy, so although Personal Income rose and inflation remains tame, stocks are taking a breather. Mortgage bonds are improved by .125% to .25%.

The bond market is closing early today if front of the long Memorial Day weekend; therefore, HSOA’s lock desk will close at 12 noon, Pacific Time.

Enjoy your long weekend!!
