Meta creates non-voting shares to fund AI buildout, with Zuckerberg retaining control
Coin World news, Decrypt reports, Meta's board of directors has approved a new class of non-voting shares, with holders of all Class A and Class B shares receiving one new share for each share they hold. The plan was disclosed on Wednesday alongside third-quarter results, and Class C shares will take effect on January 19, 2027. The one-for-one dividend per share is equivalent to a two-for-one stock split, and Meta said this will not change anyone's voting rights. Since Class C shares generally carry no voting rights, Meta can sell them for cash or use them as a currency for payments and acquisitions without weakening Zuckerberg's control. According to information filed with the SEC, Zuckerberg held about 60.6% of the voting power as of October 1, while his economic interest was 13.4%. According to SEC filings, Moelis advisors told the board's special committee that Meta could raise about $700 billion in equity financing over the next few years without affecting Zuckerberg's voting rights. Management also said long-term projections show the need to raise "tens of billions of dollars" over the next few years.
Ackman urges Trump administration to free Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac
Bill Ackman, founder of Pershing Square, urged the Trump administration to release Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac from government conservatorship before the end of its term, calling the move politically "crucial."

Following these remarks, shares of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac rose as much as 22% and 25%, respectively, in the pink sheets market. Ackman has long held shares in both companies and said he remains very bullish on them. As investors grew disappointed over the lack of progress in ending the conservatorship, both companies' shares have fallen about 60% this year. U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessent said this week that the government may not address the ownership structure of the two companies until 2027 or 2028, and stressed that keeping mortgage rates stable remains the government's priority.
