FNMA Stock Message Board http://investorshangout.com/Fannie-Mae-FNMA-61730/
I hope they keep it going in the news. That article on Foxbusiness about the relist rumor disappeared pretty fast...
FNMA speaking makes Watts comment about not caring about FNMA stock holders less ominous. If he knew FNMA was going to relist and the conservatorship was going to end soon he shouldn’t be concerned with FNMA share holders.
You make my pockets grow with money every time you post.
BTW how much do you get paid when you post?
Remember that letter Berkowitz sent to fannie and freddie asking them to stop following FHFA's orders and relist? Looks like Berkowitz has the reins on FnF now.
Big News!!!
Get your $325 shares of Fannie currently ON SALE AT ALMOST 99% OFF RETAIL VALUE
Just saw an interesting message on yahoo board. If fnma is still under direction of the Fhfa, why would Fnma spokesperson have authority to say "no plans" to relist? So that probably goes to you too Alongo bongo, you'd have to hear it from Fhfa to be so adamant they won't relist.
Bashing is Illegal! Stock Bashing is an illegal activity that can carry significant legal repercussions. The basher is generally paid on the basis of how many lies and negative rumors are spread, which can dramatically affect a stock's value. If an investor believes some of the lies, he or she may sell off the stock at the higher price before it falls.
WONG!!!!
Well, there you go. But it's been long agreed on this board that he is a paid basher; I don't bother reading his posts any more except for my amusement when it's slow at work.
On the other hand, as you well know, we have our share of pumpers also. Same deal. I would name names but I don't want to go to IHUB jail (again).
Along4zride is an official basher!
Definition of 'Stock Basher'
An individual, either acting alone or on behalf of someone else, who attempts to devalue a stock by spreading false or exaggerated claims against a public company. After the stock's price has dropped, the basher, or the basher's employer, will then purchase the stock at a lower price than what he or she believes it is intrinsically worth.
FBI behind you. Take care.
It's been suggested on this board that some of these bashers are hired by the MMs - they get so much $$ per post response. I don't know for sure.
“Obama will not allow this issue to be passed to a new (possibly Republican)administration. Knowing the slim chances of any reform bills passing he is setting the stage for reform and release. I do not keep publicizing this as not to encourage a new bill from passing. This issue is far more complicated than many realize, we need to publicize the fact that Fannie and Freddie were victims and not the villains.”
Why doesn't he take his own advice and move along? He lingers here for a reason.
Agreed Timster, but don't you think people post things on here all the time without credible links?
If you have no links for your information it is either a rumor or a lie. You really should consider the ramifications of providing incorrect information deliberately.
With the addition of a corporate attorney to its team, Fannie Mae is now looking to rid itself from government control.
