From Matthew Graham at Mortgage News Daily: Mortgage Rates Mostly Sideways to Begin Busy Week

Mortgage rates didn't move much today, which keeps them right in line with last week's lowest levels. That sounds pretty good! Unfortunately, any time prior to last week, those "lowest levels" would have been the highest in more than 4 years. [30YR FIXED - 4.625%-4.75%]
