    Feb 13 2026

    Inflation just shocked the market.

    The latest CPI report came in at 2.4%, lower than expected — while the jobs market remains strong and unemployment stays low.

    So now the big question:

    👉 Is the Federal Reserve finally ready to cut rates?
    👉 What does this mean for mortgage rates?
    👉 Should you lock or float right now?

    Every day, we pull real pricing from 30+ lenders to show you what you actually qualify for — plus we break down:

    • CPI (Consumer Price Index)
    • Federal Reserve rate outlook
    • Jobs & unemployment data
    • Mortgage-Backed Securities (MBS)
    • The 10-Year Treasury yield
    • Lock vs. Float strategy

    Transparent. Data-driven. No hype.
