The 4.5 Fannie bottomed out about 20 minutes ago just under 102-26.  At the lows of the day, there is always a slight risk of reprices for the worse, but we have descended to them so gradually and slowly, that the damage would not be severe.  MBS are under pressure from a very bullish stock rally (Dow up almost 400 points) and a concomitant treasury sell bias (10 year down 10 ticks).  So MBS have tightened a bit and we are holding our ground well, but as AQ indicated earlier, our prices are currently too high to give way to much of a rally.  To the extent that this stock rally has legs or that treasury selling persists, we could see continued weakness into this afternoon, so GUT-FLOP accordingly.  I'll post today's chart and analyze it versus Friday's close in today's end-of-day post.
