This morning, at 8:30 AM ET, the Bureau of Labor Statistics released its Non-Farm Payrolls report for January 2011. Mortgage rates are rising in response.
For this month — and for the rest of 2011– employment data will figure big in mortgage markets and for home affordability. Today’s release is the first big splash.
Mortgage rates are rising, up nearly 1 percent since mid-October. Tomorrow, rates could rise again.
