Super Duper Flat After Overnight Losses

In a vacuum limited to this week, Friday ended up being the only interesting day because it was the only outlier in terms of bond market price action.  On the previous 4 days, the highest MBS price was within a 0.09 range and the lowest price was within a 0.06 range. Lastly, the widest high/low range of the week was about a quarter point.  If you're not sure what to make of that, it means Mon-Thu were flat.  Friday was flat too, but only after overnight losses took MBS prices almost a half point below Thursday's highs.  In the bigger picture, this still isn't that significant--especially considering these levels would still be the best in several months before last Thursday's friendly CPI data.
