Once More: What's Up With MBS Underperformance? The notion of MBS underperforming Treasuries is front and center today--not because that underperformance is especially large, but mainly because MBS were often in the red while Treasuries were in the green. We have nothing new to add to yesterday's similar discussion of MBS underperformance but have nonetheless attempted to add a few thoughts in today's video. As for nuts and bolts, it was a boring day for bonds with modest gains for the long end of the yield curve (one major reason for MBS underperformance) and an uneventful, sideways grind in the afternoon.
