What should we talk about today? Besides TSA bringing back gate access, here’s a leading IMB exec and his wife putting their Florida home on the market for “a pretty penny.” There’s talk at conferences, not only about things being slower than expected in 2026 and potentially even slower in 2027, but also of LO and branch movement. It reminds me of the adage, “If you came here for a signing bonus, you’re going to leave for a signing bonus.” In legal news, there’s Brian Levy's latest Mortgage Musing which summarizes the MBA's doctrinally strategic lawsuit launched late last week against New Jersey's aggressive disparate impact rules. The MBA and its counsel, Pacific Legal Foundation, argue that the state ignored the constitutional safeguards Justice Kennedy built into Inclusive Communities over a decade ago. (Sign up for free on Levy’s Substack site if you would like to get an email every time he publishes a new Musing.) In market news, today’s Capital Markets Wrap will discuss inflation, the not-so-new Fed Chair, and the MBA’s ’26 and ’27 forecast. (Today’s podcast can be found here. This week’s ‘casts are sponsored by NFTYDoor, the fully branded or private label HELOC platform for banks, credit unions, and brokers. Close in zero days with warehouse funding.
