While it comes as little surprise that #GinnieMae #mortgage prepay speeds due to buyouts would vary by issuer/servicer (esp. bank vs. non-bank) @RiskSpan's Don Brown can quantify it. https://t.co/ifYnA381yQ

@RiskSpan's Chart of the Month shows the return of credit spreads to pre-pandemic levels in June--and illustrates why it's likely driven more by asset demand ginned up by #fed actions than by any change in the underlying #economy. @suhruddagli

Per #FHFA "Borrowers are eligible to refinance or buy a new home three months after their forbearance ends and they have made three consecutive payments under their repayment plan, or payment deferral option or loan modification." @RiskSpan https://t.co/6a5JFP0dAu

.@MortgageLaurie: "There have been very, very little actions taken for renters... the renter population is far more vulnerable than the homeowner population." (via @NPR) https://t.co/VILHvf6yC8

Non-bank servicing sector growth continues to outpace that of traditional bank servicers. Prepay speeds among these servicers are faster, too--now at post-crisis highs. @RiskSpan believes this will continue. But speeds vary among servicers. https://t.co/XgToWZQncF

@EconTalker @shoshanazuboff The guest seemed curiously unwilling to acknowledge that stated and revealed preferences often differ. We learn we're under surveillance, claim to hate it, but keep using the "free" products. Isn't that more important than the guest's moralizing about big, rich, powerful firms?
