From Matthew Graham at Mortgage News Daily: Mortgage Rates Near 3-Month Highs

Mortgage rates increased again today as lenders continued to get caught up with 2 days of bond market weakness. … With the early October lows representing a modest increase from the early September lows, there's a risk that a bigger-picture shift is taking place. Simply put, the long-term trend of falling rates that began roughly 1 year ago could be in the process of shifting toward a trend of rising rates. [Most Prevalent Rates 30YR FIXED 3.75-3.875%]
