Not all, but many, capital markets folks spent their college years rolling up their sleeves. Some not so much. When originators are asked about interest rates, some LOs may use the line in the clip above: “Oh, man. I only ride them; I don't know what makes them work.” (The current STRATMOR blog is titled, “Relying on the Fed: How Did This Happen?”) Yesterday the Federal Reserve Open Market Committee (FOMC) grabbed the headlines, despite doing exactly what everybody expected them to do: leave rates unchanged. Inflation is still higher than the FOMC would like. Certainly, insurance costs, whether they be homeowner or car, are inflationary.

Ahead of Groundhog Day tomorrow, one realizes that our industry certainly has its share of unexpected ups and downs. The latest example of a “down” is Mike Gill, a SVP of Capital Markets at the Housing Policy Council, who is fighting for his life after a shooting during a car-jack. Let’s all think positive thoughts! In other “people who make a difference” news, Brian Levy has some nice words to say about ex-MBA president and FHA Commissioner Dave Stevens in his most recent Mortgage Musings. Levy highlighted how Stevens’ death is a big loss for housing finance thought leadership, especially for an industry already quite low on the supply of independent thought leaders.
