Hard to believe the government would have released to totally BS housing related number on the same day Fannie is about to go into full cardiac arrest....

 

NOT!

With exisiting home sales declining, the off the cuff explanation may be that new home builders are undercutting the re-sales (hereinafter referrred to as "bagholders") with special financing or even price discounts.

 

I'm sure there is a more correct, obscure reason. The above is definitely happening in my area, though.

FNM selling 6b in bills

 

4.5b 3-mo

1.5b 6-mo

The Fed added $1.5B to the repo pool today, but more interestingly they increased repos on 'agencies' (think FNM) by $2 billion. Adding that to the existing $0.7b weekly agency repos outstanding (sorry, I neglected to note this last week) there is now a total of $2.7B agency repos outstanding. Well they are half way there in supplying 'capital' to FNM.

 

The Fed's level of concern is growing - but new fiat money always is available to paper over problems - or so they think.

 

BTW I would not consider selling or even reducing siilver/gold positions yet.
