Market Comment

Money continues flowing into the US Bond market at an enormous pace on increasing fears of a global economic slowdown. During these uncertain times, investors seek a safe-haven by parking their funds in US debt, like Treasuries and Mortgage Bonds.

Existing Home Sales fell 27% from June to July on an annualized basis, while the inventory supply rose to a record high of 12.5 months. Sales of single family homes fell to the lowest rate in 15 years.

For now, I will recommend a Floating bias but with Mortgage Bonds near record levels, it could lead to a move lower. If anything changes, I will get back to you.
