BlackRock, chosen by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) to sell mortgage backed securities (MBS) from failed banks, faces a dilemma between flooding the market and risking higher costs to hold the debt.

The amount of supply is formidable, with roughly $90 billion in market value of the securities that BlackRock now needs to dispose of, far more than the gross supply of agency MBS last month at $56 billion.
