We're not expecting Federal Home Loan Mortgage to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.
Federal Home Loan Mortgage's shares were split on a 4:1 basis on 12 January 1997 . So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 4 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Federal Home Loan Mortgage shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 75% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Federal Home Loan Mortgage shares which in turn could have impacted Federal Home Loan Mortgage's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Federal Home Loan Mortgage's shares have ranged in value from as little as $0.935 up to $7.15. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (OTCQB average) beta is 1, while Federal Home Loan Mortgage's is 1.839. This would suggest that Federal Home Loan Mortgage's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
