Feast and Famine

Yesterday, the Federal Reserve outlined its plans to reduce its treasury holdings by $30B per month and its mortgage-backed securities by $17.5B beginning June 1 st . This process of “quantitative tightening” will accelerate to -$60B and -$35B for treasuries and MBS respectively in three-months. In anticipation, mortgage rates have moved sharply upward this year, a move that to-date is among the sharpest swings in history. The housing market is likely to bear the brunt of this change in the macroeconomic climate.
