1. THE FACT: Trump is using authorities granted by the 2008 conservatorship of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac that allows the companies to increase by around $200 billion their holdings of mortgage bonds. 2. THE BRIDGE: An increase in mortgage bond holdings by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac could imply increased demand for mortgage-backed securities or a potential for these entities to become more active in the housing finance market. This could be a positive catalyst for the companies themselves or related assets. 3. THE VERDICT: Trump's action to allow FNMA/FMCC to increase mortgage bond holdings by $200 billion is a positive for the companies.
