- 6:29Speaker 1: the new rates for the old rates.
- 6:32Speaker 2: There's not a lot of change in the rates from
- 6:35Speaker 2: the mortgage side, which is that I'm a.
- 6:37Speaker 1: Little nervous because I think John's been keeping his notes
- 6:40Speaker 1: over there, so that might put me at a disadvantage.
- 6:43Speaker 1: I actually haven't.
- 6:45Speaker 2: He actually hasn't moved the sheet that I gave him
- 6:47Speaker 2: last week, So yeah, JT hasn't stolen it. Yeah, it
- 6:52Speaker 2: does prove that nobody else uses this chair.
- 6:54Speaker 1: That's funny. You know I usually use that chair when
- 6:57Speaker 1: I come in, you know, on the random fridays I
- 7:00Speaker 1: come in. Yeah, and on you should make JT move
- 7:02Speaker 1: so you could have your chair. Yah, yeah, yeah, I
- 7:05Speaker 1: don't think that works like that. I mean, I feel
- 7:08Speaker 1: like maybe we should be more like your chair now.

- 15:30Speaker 1: stay tuned. We are going to talk about what we
- 15:33Speaker 1: with a Fed Funds rate coming down a quarter point
- 15:36Speaker 1: this week, how does that impact you? How does that
- 15:40Speaker 1: import impact mortgage rates? Stay tuned. Bob Bournous will be
- 15:44Speaker 1: right back. All right, welcome back to bot Bardons Sold.
- 16:01Speaker 1: And you've probably been watching the news, watching all the
- 16:06Speaker 1: different stories on the internet. The Federal Funds rate reduced
- 16:12Speaker 1: the rate by a quarter percent, and you know a
- 16:15Speaker 1: lot of people think that is directly related to the
- 16:18Speaker 1: mortgage interest rates. And you know, luckily we've got Brad
- 16:23Speaker 1: Smith with a cross country mortgage in here to tell
- 16:25Speaker 1: us the real deal.
- 16:28Speaker 2: The real deal. Yes, I mean, if anything, rates have
- 16:32Speaker 2: probably gone up a little bit since the announcement yesterday,
- 16:35Speaker 2: and I mean very little, but mortgage rates have probably
- 16:39Speaker 2: gone up a little bit. Again with what we talked about,
- 16:41Speaker 2: it's in real time. So the twenty five basis point
- 16:45Speaker 2: reduction to the Fed rate was already built into our pricing.
- 16:48Speaker 2: So everything that really came from yesterday was going to
- 16:51Speaker 2: be what was said afterwards in FED Chair Powell's press
- 16:55Speaker 2: conference after the meeting, from his comments and from the
- 17:00Speaker 2: Q and A session, and that's what I mean. Yesterday
- 17:03Speaker 2: was the first time I've gone and made sure to
- 17:05Speaker 2: watch the press conference live, and just because I feel
- 17:10Speaker 2: like we've gotten so many so many things are being
- 17:12Speaker 2: dissected from it, I wanted to see it, hear it,
- 17:15Speaker 2: and be able to make kind of my own own
- 17:17Speaker 2: decisions on what we're gonna do going forward. And he
- 17:22Speaker 2: was just very non committal across the whole board and
- 17:24Speaker 2: honestly admitted as much that they were as a group,
- 17:27Speaker 2: were confused on what to do. And so I think
- 17:31Speaker 2: that got everybody a little hesitant because they've, you know,
- 17:33Speaker 2: they've been the main focus has been inflation and not
- 17:37Speaker 2: as worried about labor market. Have now we're like, oh,
- 17:41Speaker 2: crap market, labor market and it's and it's not strong.
- 17:44Speaker 2: I mean, it's it's still the unemployment rate is still
- 17:49Speaker 2: in a pretty good number historically speaking, but it's going
- 17:53Speaker 2: the wrong direction. It's getting there quicker and quicker. He
- 17:56Speaker 2: made some weird comments on some of the what what
- 17:58Speaker 2: may be causing some of the unemployment I mean the
- 18:01Speaker 2: unemployment kind of increasing, employment slowing down a little bit,
- 18:05Speaker 2: which I thought just really more muddy the water on that.
- 18:08Speaker 2: But the biggest thing, that the biggest takeaway is, and
- 18:11Speaker 2: you know you've heard me talk about it on here
- 18:13Speaker 2: a couple of times. You know, our economic history is
- 18:16Speaker 2: pretty pretty short lived if you really look at it
- 18:18Speaker 2: over you know, the last one hundred hundred and twenty years.
- 18:20Speaker 2: I mean, things move quick. So for things that happened
- 18:23Speaker 2: for the first time ever, to me is not that surprising,
- 18:27Speaker 2: and I'm not saying it's a full first time ever.
- 18:29Speaker 2: But for this FED group having inflation still kind of
- 18:33Speaker 2: creeping up a little bit at a little higher pace
- 18:35Speaker 2: than they want it, but employment to be kind of
- 18:39Speaker 2: being a little concern about what where employment's going. Those
- 18:43Speaker 2: two are kind of in conflict. So usually when you
- 18:46Speaker 2: start seeing the labor slow down, inflation would be coming
- 18:49Speaker 2: down because there's not as much dollars being spent. And
- 18:52Speaker 2: so with inflation is still ticking up and unemployment going up,
- 18:56Speaker 2: they're kind of not working together. So the Fed's not
- 18:58Speaker 2: making a long term commitment on what they're going to
- 19:01Speaker 2: do with the rates going forward, and you know, it
- 19:04Speaker 2: goes back to some of the stuff we've talked about too,
- 19:05Speaker 2: like just crazy reporting, Like I'm getting text saying like
- 19:08Speaker 2: it's so so, you know so so Pywell said that
- 19:12Speaker 2: it's likely to have two more cuts this year. I'm like,
- 19:14Speaker 2: he never said that as a matter of fact. If anything,
- 19:17Speaker 2: he said, hey, it's going to be meeting by meeting
- 19:19Speaker 2: because we don't know. We got to keep which I
- 19:21Speaker 2: was fine with. You know, it was kind of on
- 19:22Speaker 2: those things like he was he was making sure they
- 19:24Speaker 2: could stay fluid. Yeah, and so and so and so.
- 19:26Speaker 2: He was very noncommittal with a lot of his answers
- 19:28Speaker 2: because they don't know what to do with it with
- 19:31Speaker 2: inflation kind of still creeping up and unemployment also creeping up.
- 19:35Speaker 2: So when you show a weaker labor market but inflation
- 19:37Speaker 2: is still there, they didn't. They can't. It's hard for
- 19:39Speaker 2: them to say. You know, if inflation was showing the
- 19:42Speaker 2: reduction they thought, and they were getting these warning signals
- 19:45Speaker 2: from the labor market, we probably would have seen a
- 19:47Speaker 2: fifty bit cut yesterday in a commitment to at least
- 19:49Speaker 2: fifty more this year.
- 19:50Speaker 1: And maybe I notice one person voted for that.
- 19:53Speaker 2: So one person did, and it's his first meeting. It
- 19:55Speaker 2: was Miron's first meeting as an etress, so so I
- 19:58Speaker 2: think he was going in there making sure he knew
- 20:00Speaker 2: everybody knew which side he was on, Like he knew
- 20:02Speaker 2: that wasn't going to be what happened. Inter fact, he
- 20:04Speaker 2: descended he didn't. He did. He was the only FED
- 20:06Speaker 2: member that did not vote yesterday or go along with
- 20:09Speaker 2: it because he was, uh, he wanted the fifty bip
- 20:11Speaker 2: cut and so but but majority they agreed on it.
- 20:17Speaker 2: But it's but to know what they're going to do
- 20:19Speaker 2: throughout the remainder of the year is where they really
- 20:21Speaker 2: were noncommittal on any of that. So the market for
- 20:24Speaker 2: markets responded, you know, if we if he would have
- 20:26Speaker 2: come out and said, hey, we're definitely doing two more
- 20:28Speaker 2: cuts this year. We've all agreed on that at least
- 20:31Speaker 2: twenty five BIPs. We're going to keep an eye on
- 20:33Speaker 2: the labor and then and the tariff impact on the
- 20:35Speaker 2: on the inflation, and then we can you know, and
- 20:39Speaker 2: then if we need to do more or less, we will.
- 20:40Speaker 2: But he didn't say that he was you know, it
- 20:43Speaker 2: was and as a matter of fact, the dock plot
- 20:45Speaker 2: that we've talked about before kind of showed that. So
- 20:48Speaker 2: of the nineteen FED members that doc plot after they
- 20:50Speaker 2: think the rates should be by the end of the year.
- 20:53Speaker 2: I just want to I have the screenshot real quick,
- 20:55Speaker 2: just to give you quick numbers, and then I'll kind
- 20:57Speaker 2: of get over it. But basically one voting member so
- 21:01Speaker 2: we should have a hike in the rate by the
- 21:04Speaker 2: end of the year. So we like we wash out
- 21:05Speaker 2: this quarter. We just did six want no more cuts.
- 21:08Speaker 2: Now you've got seven saying seven of the nineteen saying
- 21:11Speaker 2: either go up or nothing. Two of them want twenty
- 21:15Speaker 2: five BIPs and cuts, nine want fifty BIPs, and one
- 21:17Speaker 2: wants one hundred and twenty five basis points and cuts,
- 21:19Speaker 2: which we're assuming is the same FED member that voted
- 21:22Speaker 2: for fifty yesterday, thinking we're very restrictive, we need to
- 21:24Speaker 2: make a move. But so if you look at that
- 21:26Speaker 2: and you've got you've got ten that think we should
- 21:28Speaker 2: be keep bringing it down throughout the rest of the year,
- 21:30Speaker 2: and we've got nine saying do nothing or raise it
- 21:34Speaker 2: by the end of the year. So I mean, you
- 21:36Speaker 2: see they're split as a group. So so the markets
- 21:39Speaker 2: are not building in now in twenty.
- 21:41Speaker 1: This is a group that's not typically split.
- 21:44Speaker 2: Not split. This not completely where it's like we should
- 21:47Speaker 2: be doing any moves or no moves. Maybe like somebody
- 21:49Speaker 2: says fifty, somebody says seventy five. But I do think
- 21:53Speaker 2: it's healthy and it does show we're kind of in
- 21:55Speaker 2: a weird balancing act of not sure what the best
- 21:58Speaker 2: route to go is. And I think I think some
- 22:00Speaker 2: are still heavily weighted on inflation, and some of them
- 22:03Speaker 2: are deeply now more concerned about the labor market. And
- 22:06Speaker 2: you know, when when you start showing the labor market stuff,
- 22:11Speaker 2: it is, it is a concern. I mean, it's something
- 22:13Speaker 2: we're going to have to figure out because I don't know,
- 22:16Speaker 2: it's the first time in a while we've had less
- 22:18Speaker 2: job creations and job losses, so there's not a one
- 22:20Speaker 2: to one ratio. So if you lose your job, there's
- 22:22Speaker 2: not a job necessarily for you available. And that's the
- 22:25Speaker 2: first time in a while that's been the case. So
- 22:27Speaker 2: that that causes for some concern.
- 22:30Speaker 1: How do they factor in like small businesses and stuff
- 22:34Speaker 1: like that.
- 22:34Speaker 2: That's that And he even referenced that yesterday about being
- 22:37Speaker 2: completely you know, being very hard to predict, because that's
- 22:40Speaker 2: that birth death model. So it's it's these these amount
- 22:44Speaker 2: of businesses went out of business that should have meant
- 22:46Speaker 2: this many more new businesses started. Is how many jobs
- 22:49Speaker 2: that should have come from it. And it's pretty heavy weight,
- 22:51Speaker 2: but it I mean, it's a guestimate. And he did
- 22:53Speaker 2: say like the one of the things they need and
- 22:55Speaker 2: that that continues to decline. They need better response rates
- 22:59Speaker 2: on their serchase to get the accurate numbers. They said
- 23:01Speaker 2: their sponse rates are as bad as they've ever been
- 23:04Speaker 2: from small businesses and businesses across on actually getting the numbers.
- 23:08Speaker 2: So there are a lot of you know, inferences in there,
- 23:10Speaker 2: and it's because they're not getting the data back from
- 23:12Speaker 2: the from the companies.
- 23:14Speaker 1: Well the companies probably don't want to give them the data. Yeah,
- 23:17Speaker 1: I mean, you know, let's be real. Yeah, so I.
- 23:22Speaker 2: Know, it's definitely interesting going on this too because yeah,
- 23:26Speaker 2: he made a weird comment about the immigration and employment
- 23:29Speaker 2: too that just kind of was like, I don't know
- 23:31Speaker 2: about that. So anyway, just muddy the waters a little bit.
- 23:33Speaker 2: So we're kind of flat.
- 23:34Speaker 1: But yeah, well anyways, well rates are right around you know,
- 23:38Speaker 1: the low sixes, sixes and then some government products in
- 23:42Speaker 1: the midfield five.
- 23:43Speaker 2: So it's still he still great. I mean, I mean
- 23:44Speaker 2: we're two years ago we were at eight percent correct,
- 23:47Speaker 2: So there we go. Hey.
