CopyInflation just crossed 4% for the first time in three years. And mortgage rates... didn't move. Yesterday's May CPI came in at 4.2% — up from 3.8% in April, more than double the Fed's target. The Iran war and $95 oil are doing the damage. So why are rates still sitting at 6.46%? Because markets saw it coming. The print matched forecasts almost exactly, and core inflation (excluding food and energy) actually came in slightly COOLER than expected. Rates price in the future, not the headline. 🏠 What this means if you're buying: 1️⃣ Stop waiting for a rate cut. The Fed meets June 16-17 — no cut expected. With CPI above 4% and the Strait of Hormuz closed, the earliest realistic window is fall. 2️⃣ Your leverage is somewhere else entirely. Sellers just hit a 6-YEAR HIGH. They outnumber buyers by 47% nationally. In 35 of the 50 largest metros, buyers hold the upper hand (Redfin). 3️⃣ Builders are still paying you to buy. 2-1 buydowns, closing credits up to 6%, upgrade packages standard. A 2-1 buydown on a $400K home often beats a $15K price cut. 📊 This morning's snapshot: • 30-year fixed: 6.46% • FHA: 5.93% | 15-year: 5.70% • May CPI: 4.2% YoY • Active listings: 1.23M+ The winning play in this market isn't timing rates.

Copy⚠️ MARKET INTELLIGENCE — June 11, 2026 May CPI: 4.2% YoY — first print above 4% since May 2023. Market reaction: almost nothing. That's the story. 📊 The tape: • 10Y Treasury: 4.56% (+1 bp) • 5Y Treasury: 4.29% (flat) • SOFR: 3.60% • 30Y Mortgage: 6.46% (unchanged through CPI) • Mortgage spread: ~190 bps • Brent: ~$95.40 (+2.5% overnight) • Fed Funds: 3.50-3.75% (FOMC June 16-17) 🔍 Why the non-reaction matters: The 4.2% headline matched consensus almost exactly, and core CPI ex-food/energy came in slightly below expectations. Rates had already repriced for energy-driven inflation. The bond market is telling you it's positioned for higher-for-longer — fully. The unpriced variable is Hormuz. Iran declared the strait CLOSED overnight after fresh US strikes. ~25% of global seaborne oil transits that chokepoint. Brent jumped to $95.40. WTI to $92.63. The scenario tree: → Strait reopens in days: oil retraces, CPI peaks this summer, fall cut stays live → Closure holds weeks: $100+ oil, June CPI worse than May, cut window slides to 2027, hike talk resurfaces → Escalation to supply destruction: stagflation playbook — long duration gets punished, real assets and energy-adjacent credit outperform For real estate capital: → FOMC next week is a hold — the statement language on energy passthrough is what to read → MBS spreads at ~190 bps already carry a geopolitical premium; limited widening room before origination economics break → Seller capitulation accelerating: sellers at 6-year high, outnumbering buyers 47% nationally — acquisition window for patient capital → Builder margins squeezed three ways: tariffs, energy costs, and concession loads at peak Full economic dashboard: https://landconexa-capital.vercel.app/economic #RealEstateFinance #CapitalMarkets #MortgageRates #WRF

Our answer was already on one screen: → CPI 4.2% vs. 4.2% consensus — in line, no repricing → 10Y Treasury: 4.56%, +1 bp — bond market shrugged → 30Y mortgage: 6.46%, unchanged — lenders pre-positioned → Brent: $95+ after Iran closed Hormuz — THE number to watch now → FOMC June 16-17: hold confirmed, fall cut window intact (barely) That's the difference between data and intelligence. 🔧 What we've built at HomByt: ✓ 50 economic indicators refreshed every morning ✓ Full Treasury curve (3mo through 30yr) with spread tracking ✓ Conventional + FHA mortgage rates, daily ✓ Commodities, indices, crypto — 34 live prices ✓ NEXA CPI projection model (called the 4-handle before the print) ✓ Buyer-facing pre-qualification engine that converts all of it into a number a homebuyer can act on That last one is the unlock for lenders and agents: Your client doesn't care that core CPI ex-shelter decelerated.
