2 Question Tuesday® – 01/13/2026 – What Would It Mean to the Financial Markets If the Iranian Regime Is Toppled? Will the Purchase of $200 Billion in Mortgage Bonds Help the Housing and Stock Markets?

Welcome to 2 Question Tuesday®. This week’s questions were:

  1. What would it mean to the financial markets if the Iranian regime is toppled?
  2. Will the purchase of $200 billion in mortgage bonds help the housing and stock markets?

Phil, Mike, and Larry talk about what it will mean to America, the world, and the financial markets if the Iranian regime is toppled because of this nationwide wave of protests. They then discuss whether President Trump’s order directing Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to buy $200 billion in mortgage bonds, combined with a proposed ban on private equity buying single-family homes, would be enough to save the housing market.
