Fannie Mae (NYSE: FNM) and Freddie Mac (NYSE: FRE) may borrow more than $350 billion from the U.S. government, should the housing market worsen, says the FHFA.

AIG (NYSE: AIG) raised $17.8 billion in its AIA IPO in Hong Kong, as it looks to pay back the U.S. government for bailing the insurer out.

Kansas City Federal Reserve's President Thomas Hoenig said yesterday that more quantitative easing would lead to another bubble. Additional easing would weaken the dollar and help comapnies like Ford (NYSE: F) which ship products overseas.
