"Because under Obama they talked about winding down the gses."

Winding down is not the same as liquidating.

Winding down is the process of reducing the "footprint" of the company by reducing its functions and influence. Obama wanted to wind down the companies so that they'd have less influence on the mortgage market.

Liquidating is the process of selling off assets and eventually winding up the company so that the company no longer exists.

"Trump all you hear is getting out of govt control."

Yes...all you hear is "getting out of govt control". That doesn't really mean anything. Technically, a liquidation WOULD get the GSEs out of government control. We need more specifics to know Trumps intention.

"It's funny how alot of guys get on here at the same time and app trash FNMA as the stock all of a sudden falls."

10 cents up, 10 cents down...it doesn't matter. This will either be worth 40 dollars or 0 dollars one day.
