He probably sells FNMA when he thinks it's time and then buys Freddie for 10 cents cheaper. Then continues to do that accumulating more shares. He probably only sells and buys a portion of his investment and holds a core position in case major news happens after hours. Many traders here do this I think. I however, just buy as much as I can each month regardless of price (all between 0.25 and 3.00 over The years) as I think the end result is worth it. I haven't sold a share of either FnF. Best of luck

Lumpina, some people who trade frequently, move back and forth between the two, to avoid wash trades.

It helps me avoid the wash trades and I usually end up with more shares.
