FINANCE
S&Ls off on falling yield spreads
With long-term rates diving, the spread between short and long end has tightened. S&Ls make money on mortgages based on the yield spread. Long-term rates had stayed high despite nine Fed rate cuts. But the Treasury's move to stop selling 30-year debt sent 30- and 10-year yields plunging. Washington Mutual lost 5% to 28.56, a 52-week low. Golden West Financial slid 3% to 47.26, also a 52-week low.
