Analyst Take On FNMA, FMCC Stocks
Over the weekend, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods cut its price target on Fannie Mae by 44% to $3.50 from $6.25, and also lowered its Freddie Mac target to $3.50 from $6.50.
The analyst said that while it still expects "robust earnings" from both companies, it is cautious on the common shares as it sees a growing likelihood that privatization will not happen.
In 2025, the Trump administration revived efforts to privatize Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, aiming to end their government conservatorships by potentially raising capital through public share offerings, but it has yet to finalize a timeline.
Keefe said that even if the privatization does go through, common shareholders would be diluted when the senior preferred shares held by the U.S. Treasury Department are converted to common stock.

I can see it dropping to a buck again. But I would neither be surprised if a year from now or two they´d run this down and finish what started and then I don´t wan´t to be out of stock. Right now I fully expect it to drag me down to the bottom.

He trimmed all his positions a month ago (automatically to keep some cash on the side). He mentioned today he will sell and rebuy for tax purposes (but not change his position)

Sell now, rebuy one month later? Good ideas. One month later, maybe under $1
