Description
Welcome to The Chrisman Commentary, your go-to daily mortgage news podcast, where industry insights meet expert analysis. Hosted by Robbie Chrisman, this podcast delivers the latest updates on mortgage rates, capital markets, and the forces shaping the housing finance landscape. Whether you're a seasoned professional or just looking to stay informed, you'll get clear, concise breakdowns of market trends and economic shifts that impact the mortgage world.
In today’s episode, we look at why short-term rates and long-term rates are seeing a decoupling. Plus, Robbie sits down with iEmergent’s Bernard Nossouli for a discussion on why mortgage demand is better predicted by bottom-up, borrower-level and local-market signals than by national macro assumptions, while still requiring vigilance for structural inventory gaps, demographic shifts, and policy shocks that lenders and policymakers must factor in to understand true housing opportunity. And we close by examining what we are in terms of labor market softening.
