Trump says working on taking Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac publicEPA-EFE/SARAH YENESELUnited States President Donald Trump said that he is working on taking two government-sponsored mortgage giants, the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac), public. "But I want to be clear, the US Government will keep its implicit GUARANTEES, and I will stay strong in my position on overseeing them as President," he added in a post on Truth Social.
US housing finance chief tells Powell to lower interest ratesThe director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) took to social media Monday to tell Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell that it’s time to resume the central bank’s interest rate cuts.FHFA Director William Pulte took a page out of President Trump’s playbook in putting political pressure on the Fed to lower rates.“Jay Powell needs to lower interest rates — enough is enough,” he wrote. “President Trump has crushed Biden’s inflation, and there is no reason not to lower rates. The housing market would be in much better shape if Chairman Powell does this.”Trump has been calling for interest rate cuts for months in light of his trade war and new tariff policies, which many companies and business groups are saying will compel them to raise their prices. Retailers are expecting to raise prices in the near future in response to tariffs, according to the Fed’s last beige book, an anecdotal survey of business conditions.“This would be a perfect time for Fed Chairman Jerome Powell to cut interest rates. He is always ‘late,’ but he could now change his image, and quickly,” Trump said in early April. “Cut interest rates, Jerome, and stop playing politics.”The Fed started cutting interest rates in the back half of last year after leaving them elevated for about a year in response to postpandemic inflation.After inflation showed signs of life last fall, the Fed paused its rate cuts in January and has left them at a range of 4.25 to 4.5 percent since January.In maintaining the pause, Powell has also cited Trump’s trade war, which has been executed by the White House in fits and starts, as contributing to an environment of economic uncertainty.“Tariff announcements and heightened uncertainty about government policies in general are the dominant economic developments of more recent weeks,” Powell said earlier this month.Higher interbank lending rates slow economic activity by making it more expensive for businesses to borrow money and make investments. This tightening of credit eventually hits workers, who count as an overhead cost. Workers then have less disposable cash and make fewer purchases, which encourages companies to slow their rate of price increases, thereby combating inflation through reduced demand.But while this process plays out, the higher interest rates also make consumer financing more expensive, which increases the cost of housing in particular. The housing sector tends to lag behind the price movements in other sectors of the economy.Mortgage rates have been hovering around 7 percent since 2022. The 30-year fixed rate mortgage is now at 6.86 percent, according to government-backed mortgage provider Freddie Mac.Shelter inflation as a component of the consumer price index has fallen to a 4-percent annual increase, maintaining that level from March to April. Headline inflation is almost half that rate, having dipped to a 2.3-percent annual increase in April, off a recent high of 3 percent in January.

ESPAGUETIZACIÓN.—Están cayendo de cabeza en el agujero negro que se está tragando su espacio.En este histórico 2025 han cruzado el horizonte de eventos.Y la gravedad aumenta tan rápido que la distorsión del espacio-tiempo no es constante a lo largo de su propio cuerpo. En la cabeza es mayor que en los pies. ¡Están estirándose!Se están espaguetizando.Se espaguetizarán hasta cabello de ángel y más allá. Y se acabarán descomponiendo en la singularidad del espacio-tiempo, momento en el que terminarán todos los momentos... para ellos.Nosotros, en órbita, viéndolo.P. S.: Desde los 1980 sabemos que el mercado ha fracasado en la provisión de vivienda. No hay ninguna curva de oferta ni de demanda que administrar con medidas fiscales o monetarias porque se trata de una estafa. Solo hay un camino: la provisión pública. Hemos tenido que parar el mundo y liquidar la mitad del sistema bancario. Y los usureros han caído en la pereza. Pero intentando justificar su usura nos han hecho un gran favor: predicar el faltaofertismo. Solo nos falta que EE. UU. se declare en recesión-en-sentido-amplio para que la construcción se presente como la única solución razonable para la actividad y el empleo, todos reconciliados con el dinero. Y las actas de la reunión del Fomc del pasado 6-7 de mayo, tres semanas sin salir. Silencio exasperante. Agravado por la gesticulación histriónica de los perdedores, cada día más delgaduchos. Dicen que es que es así como se negocia. Pero con la muerte no se negocia.P. S. 2: No sé ustedes, pero un servidor ve signos. El presidente de los EE. UU. dando ánimos a los estadounidenses ('slope of hope'), mientras hace negocios con derivados financieros aprovechando los vaivenes en las cotizaciones que él mismo provoca para sacar provecho de la volatilidad inherente al momento histórico que vivimos. La UE central (Alemania y el BCE) despertando del letargo en que la ha metido intencionalmente el anglo. Y, en España, dejándonos de pensar que somos la locomotora de nada, y dolidos porque nos hemos cargado dos generaciones para luego tener que delinquir si no heredas.

President Trump said again Tuesday he's working to take mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac public, winding down 17 years of federal control over two central parts of the U.S. housing market — a move that was cheered on by Trump ally and noted Wall Street investor Bill Ackman.Ending the conservatorship of Fannie and Freddie — which guarantee trillions of dollars worth of mortgages — would be complicated, and critics say it's risky. A plan to do so in Mr. Trump's first term did not come to pass. But the president announced last week he was considering the move, pointing to the firms' return to profitability since their 2008 government takeover."Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are doing very well, throwing off a lot of CASH, and the time would seem to be right," Mr. Trump wrote on Truth Social late Wednesday — prompting a double-digit rally in shares the next day of both Fannie and Freddie, which trade over the counter rather than on a major stock exchange.
as empresas privatizadas por los nazis incluían los cuatro principales bancos comerciales de Alemania, que habían sido propiedad pública durante los años anteriores: Commerz– und Privatbank, Deutsche Bank und Disconto-Gesellschaft, Golddiskontbank y Dresdner Bank.[25][26] También se privatizaron los Deutsche Reichsbahn (Ferrocarriles alemanes), en ese momento la empresa pública más grande del mundo, Vereinigte Stahlwerke AG, la segunda sociedad anónima más grande de Alemania (la más grande fue IG Farben, que apoyó financieramente el ascenso de Hitler al poder) y Vereinigte Oberschlesische Hüttenwerke AG, una compañía que controlaba toda la producción de metales en la industria del carbón y el acero de la Alta Silesia. El gobierno también vendió varias empresas de construcción naval y mejoró los servicios público-privados a expensas de las empresas de servicios públicos de propiedad municipal.[25] Así la economía alemana durante el nazismo funcionó como una forma de capitalismo monopolistas.[27] Además, los nazis privatizaron algunos servicios públicos que habían sido prestados anteriormente por el gobierno, especialmente los servicios sociales y laborales, y estos fueron tomados principalmente por organizaciones afiliadas al Partido Nazi en las que se podía confiar para aplicar políticas raciales nazis.[25]
