Mortgage rates drop to a 2-month low as the US job market shows signs of slowing

Mortgage rates dropped to a two-month low as the labor market in the world's largest economy showed signs of a slowdown, prompting a surge in weekly applications for home loans.

March's additions were also below February's upwardly revised increase. The unemployment rate fell to 3.5% from 3.6%.

The five-week decline in mortgage rates comes alongside a burst of anxiety in markets after last month's collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank sparked a jump in deposits flowing out of small to mid-sized banks.
