In the Markets:
Rates calmed down last week after the turmoil abroad from the
horrific tragedy of the plane being shot down over the Ukraine. Investors
quickly turned to safer assets (ie bonds), and that lowered the yields a bit.
When a conflict breaks out which could affect global markets,
investors generally respond with a "flight to safety". Uncertainty
created by the threat of escalation causes investors to reduce the level of
risk in their portfolios. This typically involves shifting from stocks to relatively
safer assets such as gold and bonds, including mortgage-backed securities
(MBS).
Until next time!
