Shares of Fair Isaac, Equifax and TransUnion fell after the director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency said the companies were under a review.
In a reply to a post on the social-media platform X, FHFA director Bill Pulte said "We are doing a full scale review of all credit bureaus." Pulte had previously criticized cost increases at FICO in a May 20 social-media post.
Fair Isaac fell to as low as $1,731.80 and was recently down 1%, to $1797.15. Equifax touched an intraday low of $244.51 before recovering to $252.38, down 1.3%, and TransUnion was down 2.5%, at $86.66, after falling to $84.11 earlier.
On Wednesday, Pulte ordered Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to prepare proposals on how they would review cryptocurrency as an asset on mortgage applications.
