The 30-year fixed mortgage rate moved higher as long-term Treasury yields rose, which mortgage pricing tends to follow closely. The near-term catalyst was a jump in oil prices tied to renewed U.S.–Iran tensions, boosting inflation concerns and pushing bond investors to demand higher yields; restrictive Fed policy remains a backdrop, but market inflation expectations and bond moves drove the day’s change.
