Hi Fannie Heyyyy - Low chance rather than No Chance. The FHFA could release the GSEs if POTUS directed the FHFA and UST to do so. With the JB Admin - it really is a political calculation and a long term policy consideration. Would a release be a net political positive for the 2024 election? Do the affordable housing advocates like Parrot and Bernstein want to risk loosing control of the GSEs to implement the Utility Model from a long term policy point of view. If DJT wins the Utility Money and a lot of the affordable housing initiatives go away. Does Sherrod Brown get reelected? Will Brown's legacy be a lost opportunity to restructure the GSEs in the Utility Model framework?

AGREE if you mean by release their new format - say combine them into one public utility - then YES YES YES

but IMO --- the Executive can kill the SP and LP which would be 75% of the uphill battle

BO could have done it
DJT could have done it
JB can do it

It would be an action by the Treasury - and all know - IMO - the treasury would do so WHEN at same time it says it will take its 4B shares

Housing is probably the most important driver of the overall economy and it get talked about the least. The only thing that gets talked about less is the events that have transpired regarding the GSE's. They will not be released, regardless of one party control or not. Simply not going to happen.
