FLASH UPDATE: Treasuries and MBS markets both little changed ahead of possible government shutdown

The Treasury market is essentially unchanged on the day as markets take a wait and see attitude on the possible government shutdown.  MBS are trading within a tight range with discounts up slightly (1+ tick) on a hedged basis and premiums off slightly (1+ tick) on a hedged basis.  Expect Treasury markets to rally significantly if the government does shut down and mortgage discounts to continue to outperform premiums (…but in a much stronger way).
