Freddie Mac's subprime losses could hit $5 billion
November 19th, 2007 · 5 Comments · posted by Diana McCabe
Credit Suisse told Reuters that Freddie Mac might report a loss of between $1 billion to $5 billion on its subprime AAA portfolio:

"If the recent credit spread widening does not reverse over the coming quarters, we believe that Freddie could recognize an other-than-temporary impairment of between $1-5 billion," the brokerage said in a research note.

Reuters writes that the losses may force Freddie to sell some of its portfolio holdings or raise capital by issuing preferred stock, the note added.
