It was a relatively quiet first half of the week on the U.S economic calendar. Key stats included December inflation figures on Wednesday.

In December, the U.S annual rate of inflation accelerated from 6.8% to 7.0%, the highest since 1982. The core annual rate of inflation picked up from 4.9% to 5.5%.

On the monetary policy front, FED Chair Powell had given testimony on Tuesday, delivering some market relief. The FED Chair talked of the U.S economy’s ability to withstand rate hikes while also holding back from suggesting the need for more than 3 hikes in the year.

The inflation figures ultimately drove yields northwards, however.

• All mortgage types saw rates rise, driven by the prospect of a faster than expected tightening of monetary policy.

• The shift in sentiment was driven by a continued pickup in inflation exacerbated by uncertainty in labor and supply chains.

• In spite of the rise in mortgage rates this year, purchase demand has yet to reflect the jump in rates.

• Given the fast pace of home price growth, however, it will likely dampen demand in the near future.

• Mortgage rates increased significantly as the FED signaled tighter policy ahead, pushing yields higher.

• 30-year fixed hit 3.52%, its highest level since March 2020.

• Rates at these levels are quickly closing the door on refinance opportunities for many borrowers.

• Applications remained at their lowest level in over a month.

• The housing market started 2022 on a strong note. However, the strength in growth will be dependent upon a more rapid growth in housing inventory to meet demand.

It’s a particularly quiet start to the week for the U.S markets. Economic data is limited to NY Empire State Manufacturing numbers that should have a muted impact on yields.

From elsewhere, 4^th quarter GDP numbers from China will also draw interest on Monday, however.

Away from the economic calendar, expect COVID-19 news updates to remain a key area of focus.
