I predict the 10 year note yield will be in a range of 1.60% 3.04%, which means mortgage rates will be in the 3.50%-4.5% range. Even with stronger economic data from the U.S., other areas around the world such as Japan, Europe, Russia and even China are now experiencing economic slowdowns. My yield range prediction is based on recent history: In May of 2013, the 10 year note yield was 1.6% before it climbed to 3.04% over the next 18 months. If we see an upside break in the yield to over 3.04% this would be a bullish indicator for...

The 10 year yield has taken one big jump in the last few weeks. Even the German 10 yr yield jumped like crazy. :(

Not really in regard to channel the 10's are acting on...

Any tie-in to inflation?

Some of the other wage inflation numbers are picking up and ECI wage inflation is back to where it was when the Fed started to hike back in 2004.

However, a lot of the bond market move is away from traditional economics and more on inter-cycle moves on technical levels

Increasing risk-free yields and inflation under control is the risk averse couch potato investor's dream.

13   _   2015 Jun 9, 7:25pm  

Key lines for lower yields now are close under 2.35 and the. 2.29.... Could take us back to 2.14... But higher highs snd higher lows in place for 10's

14   _   2015 Jun 10, 4:54am  

2.49% print today on 10's ... have to watch for massive move in bonds, selling can accelerate

15   _   2015 Jun 10, 6:27am  

The move in bunds have been historic recently, still no real inflation in Europe

The lowest yield at one point in early April on the 10 year German bonds was 0.05%. Now it's 1%. A 20 fold jump in less than 2 months.
Most of it a result of speculation. Those yields could literally not get any lower.

Higher yield Block party

Why not buy a basket of high yield international 10 years (if you could) and hold to maturity? Currency risk exists, but getting 8% a year sounds tantalizing.

Brazil is way up there. Value for money is with USA. Putin is paying 10.5%.....he can keep his worthless bonds.

You could, but they won't include US or Western Europe.

I'd bite on 6% 10 year UST's as a start.

Not sure if we will get over 4.7%... a 2017 story line

You will only get those high rates if inflation takes a sizable jump. But then that will defeat the purpose.
If you want the best investment ever, buy homebuilder stocks or an ETF that tracks the builders. I put my life savings of a $1,000.00 in the ITB, and expect to turn it into $10 million by 2017.

Speaking of which I think I have to talk about or at least bring up a question on air to CNBC on Monday with the trading nation group next Monday 10:00 AM our time

When you adjust to inflation new homes are over the bubble just now

If you did the same for older homes it's not even close

At 6% I'd become a permanent world traveler and never come back except to sample some BBQ brisket every couple of years.

California real estate generates 7%. :)

Loved it. Thanks for posting.
California has never built enough homes. In the last 8 years, neither has the rest of the country. Why is the rest of the country not building enough homes?

Mix match to demand

The curve since the mid 1990's was for ownership when the demand curve about 30% of it fluff... so you need to fix the mix match to demand for rentals. This limits the builders to build affordable housing due to profit margin restraints

Hence why we have this now

38   _   2015 Jun 11, 4:25pm  

Logan Mohtashami, a California-based loan officer, says the notion that lending standards are tight is a myth.
“There remain a number of highly respected housing ‘gurus’ who continue to profess that it is unfairly tight lending standards, not the lack of qualified buyers that are suppressing a housing recovery. The difference is not academic,” he says. “A quick review of the requirements for some of mortgage loans available may surprise you.”
VA loans require no down payment, for example, he notes. And buyers can get other mortgages with credit scores as low as 560, with 50% debt-to-income ratios, or down payments as low as 3%.
“At this point all you can do is bring back 0% down loans and stated income loans for wage earners,” said. “Look who is really pushing the tight lending thesis. People in New York, D.C., San Francisco. What I call economic bubble cities. Main Street America gets this thesis I am saying.”

Higher prices will fix that restrained profit margin real quick.

Not only will that not fix the issue... it's creating a system supply where older homes are not only geographically more advantages to first time home buyers they're much more cheaper... hence why we are down in sales in terms of estimates made years ago...
