Thursday, 8 January, 2026
Trump says he wants to buy $200 BILLION in mortgage bonds to drive mortgage rates down. Sounds bold — but does it actually work?In this live breakdown, I separate headlines from reality and explain how mortgage rates really move.We cover: • Can a President actually direct mortgage bond buying? • Who controls mortgage rates vs who gets blamed • How Mortgage-Backed Securities (MBS) actually affect rates • What Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac can — and cannot — do • Whether MBS buying really lowers monthly payments • What the Federal Reserve is doing right now • Why lower rates alone don’t fix housing affordability • What buyers and investors should actually focus on in 2026No politics. No hype. Just real mortgage and housing market education.If you want to understand how rates work — not just react to headlines — this live is for you.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/rants-and-gems/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
