Fannie Mae-No Politics (FNMA)

[big-yank]

I really think Mnuchin will fare positively in the confirmation process. He will have to endure the usual "slings and arrows" for the television audience at home to observe the customary Congressional "toughness" projected at all hearings broadcast on C-Span. But I think there are bigger and more productive fights for confirmation of nominees for State, AG, Energy and EPA. Besides, Mnuchin has a template to follow left by his GS predecessors.

I believe his confirmation is critical to a prompt and favorable shareholder outcome for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

JMHO.
