From Matthew Graham at Mortgage News Daily: Mortgage Rates Fairly Flat Despite Mixed Signals From Bond Market

Mortgage rates are unchanged to a hair lower compared to last Friday, depending on the lender. While that's welcome news given some of the big jumps in rates seen in the past 2 weeks, the underlying bond market suggests we're still in the middle of a waiting game. [30 year fixed 3.09%]
emphasis added
Tuesday:
• At 8:00 AM ET, Corelogic House Price index for August

• At 8:30 AM, Trade Balance report for August from the Census Bureau.  The consensus is for the deficit to be $70.5 billion in August, from $70.1 billion in July.

• At 10:00 AM, the ISM Services Index for September.
