Housing remains stuck in a deep freeze: a small decline in mortgage rates sparked only a brief refinancing rush, and purchase demand is still down 32% from 2019. Meanwhile, 100,000 federal “deferred resignations” will soon appear in the jobs data, the bond market is reacting to tariff headlines, and gold smashed through $4,000/oz.

• Rates too high: Even after dipping to 6.43%, mortgage rates remain far above early‑2024 lows. A two‑week refi spike fizzled quickly.

• Demand deep-freeze: Purchase mortgage applications are flat and 32% below 2019 levels. High prices and lingering lock‑in keep buyers on the sidelines.

• Deferred resignations: About 100k federal workers left payrolls on Sept 30 and will show up in the November jobs report. Total federal losses for 2025 will likely exceed 200k.

• Private hiring cools: August saw about 50k private-sector jobs; the three‑month average is 48k.

• Yields tumble: The 10‑yr Treasury yield fell to 4.04% as markets digested threats of new China tariffs. The bond market now expects one more Fed cut this year.

💰 Liquidity & Safe Havens

• T‑bill pivot: The Treasury is issuing more short-term bills; some auction sizes are up 10–17% vs August. This should relieve pressure on long-term yields and keep money-market rates attractive.

• Gold rockets: Spot gold reached $4,031/oz, up roughly 50% year‑to‑date. ETF inflows and central-bank buying continue.

• Crypto wobbles: Bitcoin pulled back to about $115k after spiking to $125k. New IRS 1099‑DA reporting rules are a looming headwind.

💡 Takeaway

This market remains a study in contrasts: housing stays depressed, labour is cooling, and bond markets are whipsawed by politics more than policy. Investors are rushing into safe havens like gold while eyeing short-term yields and waiting for more clarity on inflation and regulation. Stay diversified across cash, real assets, and select risk assets—and watch for data volatility as deferred resignations hit the jobs report next month.
