Fannie Mae-No Politics (FNMA)

[Unhombrealado]

I own both and the prefs have been by far a better investment thus far. It all depends when you bought in. Also, the commons have much higher risk, and should provide a higher return; else you’re taking a much bigger amount of risk in vain. Commons could be worthless while preferreds would get some money back in the worst of scenarios. If I were to start the investment again ai would likely have a 60:40 prefs to common ratio, but I’m comfortable where I am closer to a 30:70 ratio. For those betting the house on this, if you’re going to put all eggs in one basket, at least have different kinds of eggs in there.
