Mortgage rates on 30-year U.S. loans slid to a record low for the second straight week, lowering borrowing costs for homebuyers as demand slumps.
Rates for 30-year fixed loans sank to 4.58 percent in the week ended today from 4.69 percent last week, Freddie Mac said in a statement.
In my view, shorting US Treasuries will be the next big macro trade. 2 year bond Yields are also trading at historical lows. They are currently at 0.62% and I ask you, how low can they go?
