Bankers Association Market Composite -7.1% adjusted in the June 22 week.
An MBA official said refinance volume fell largely due to the fall-off
in refis of FHA loans after borrowers had boosted such refis the week
before to avoid higher premiums. The MBA market composite was -7.1%. The
latest 30-yr conforming mortgage rate was up a basis point to 3.88%. See
