From Matthew Graham at Mortgage News Daily: Mortgage Rates Slightly Lower to Start The Week

The average lender moved slightly lower in cost. The change was small enough that most borrowers will see it in the form of a modest reduction in upfront costs without any change in the quoted interest rate (relative to what the same scenario would have been quoted on Friday). [30 year fixed 6.59%]
emphasis added
