Fannie Mae-No Politics (FNMA)

Agreed. Watt's personal viewpoints and vision of the FHFAs mission to maintain a liquid and affordable housing market are of great interest. It has been over 1 month since he was sworn in as acting director of the FHFA and has been relatively silent. I expect to see him make some kind of announcement on his plans as admin and his feelings toward housing reform efforts, relatively soon. The past few years DeMarco authorized the release--usually early March--of a scorecard detailing goals/progress of the conservatorship. I would hope that Watt would release an updated scorecard in that same timeframe. This may be our first glimpses of a potential timeline or course of action.
