Estimated Money Transfer: $150 Million

Before you click the link and read this CNBC article, take a wild guess: what recent event will result in (according to the forecaster quoted in that article) a $150 million shift from one (fairly well-defined) group of people to another (almost but not quite as well-defined) group of people?

Sort of a hint, but not really: I'm definitely not in the first group; there's an outside chance I'll end up in the second group. We'll never know for sure if I actually am in the second group, though we could easily learn for sure that I wasn't.

What Other People Say

I'd say it has something to do with an Iraq War spending supplemental, but you wrote "million."

Eh, that was a really bad guess considering the second paragraph.

I thought for sure it had something to do with Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac and current homeowners vs. potential future homeowners.
