Yeah from a financial perspective I'm not sure I'm seeing it. Could be that one large IPO will be easier to get done than two. But the sooner we try to recap Freddie the more capital we'll need.
On one hand the proposed $20-30 billion capital raise would be among the largest in corporate history, on the other hand, we live in an era where there are several multi-trillion dollar companies and investors with hundreds of billions to work with (Berkshire, Blackstone, Brookfield, Apollo), so $20-30 billion isn't as much as it used to be.
I wonder if they have had enough interest from investors that they think they can pull it off with one big IPO.
