It made use of freely available Ginnie Mae data, plus some proprietary stuff from Bloomberg. I’ve not uploaded any data, but a person with access to Bloomberg would be able to recreate all this work.

The final white paper is available as a pdf in the root directory. You can see my entire process over the course of a couple of months in the doc/ directory, as a collection of Jupyter notebooks.
