Most seem to think common shareholders will be brushed aside based on these court cases. It seems that while the past is important to partly focus on, it is not the be all end all, especially with the current administration. Perhaps this is my biased rose colored view.
If we focus solely on the future, it looks quite bright, with individuals in administration that seem to realize how important the GSEs are to the housing industry. Stemming from the belief that there is truly no other entity to replace them and if they were to create such an entity that it would just be a replica of the GSEs now.
