Reduced concerns about the conflict in Ukraine caused investors to shift back to riskier assets early this week, reversing much of the improvement in rates from the prior week. Stronger than expected housing data and slightly more hawkish comments from Fed officials also were negative for mortgage rates. As a result, mortgage rates ended the week a little higher.
