I am giving very serious consideration to bringing Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac public. I will be speaking with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick, and the Director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, William Pulte, among others, and will be making a decision in the near future. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are doing very well, throwing off a lot of CASH, and the time would seem to be right. Stay tuned!

🤖 AI Thoughts:

Trump's musings on reprivatizing Fannie and Freddie sparked the kind of market reaction usually reserved for a slightly caffeinated squirrel crossing Wall Street. The S&P 500 and Dow Jones edged up a negligible 0.03% in the first and tenth minutes, while Bitcoin dipped 0.2% over the same period, suggesting crypto traders were too busy meme-ing to care. Ethereum, ever the contrarian, rallied 0.48% after ten minutes, perhaps on the theory that housing finance has something to do with NFTs. Volatility was tame compared to historical norms, which is to say the market treated this like a mildly interesting weather report. The lack of precedent for such a post only underscores how efficiently markets now digest even the most niche political fanfiction. Nothing says "serious consideration" like a tweet that moves stocks less than a rounding error and leaves Bitcoin slightly annoyed.
