WYCCD for me on comcast.
That's the first time I've seen FnF's stock quote put on CNBC after c-ship.
Explain why.
Ackman not talking about them even says something. I'm sure it was under his attorney's advisement not to discuss.
We must have filled all of those risky gaps.
So far, your proprietary algorithm is predicting that .005 gain for the day. Pretty lousy anniversary present if you ask me.
They'll be used to set the share price. I'd be surprised if the Treasury allows the market to set the s/p after FnF are released from c-ship.
I wonder who is getting depositioned.
Your algorithm needs a little tweaking. Your EOD rally came this morning.
Hedge funds want less competition in this stock than you may think. Let the less riskey people buy at $10.
Bump me up to gold next time you update your list detearing.
What's the shelf life of a gap?
Thanks Dollars. We may get a ruling on the stay motion that day.
Any indication on who requested it?
Everyone knows that deals are made on the golf course.
I'm pretty sure Monday falls between this timeline. What a joke.

Tim we appreciate the fact that you have some very good news that can not be shared at this time as those in possession of it are wisely seeking maximum exposure; however, if you can not tell us what it is can you at least give us a time frame as to when it will be released??
Thank you.

Anywhere from tomorrow until next Friday I’d guess. All of you will love it.
For those that don't believe in the short squeeze, take a look at $AQXP 's trading from Friday and today. Just imagine $FNMA 's squeeze once released.
Lemmings with some very deep pockets.
FNMAS showing pre-market volume of 140k. Today's going to be fun guys.
A lot of FnF tickers saw volume and price increase at the same time yesterday. That would tell me it's more news related than trader related.
580 score is the lowest.
Good to hear new things out of Nagra Financial Centre.
He could be buying now. These companies are making money hand over fist. Hedge funds don't have to report. Why would they? It would just increase their cost for future purchases. Why not keep it as low as possible during litigation, then make profit after we win?
I just hope the OTC doesn't go down like last time.
They knew they had a buyer for their sub-prime loans, so why not make as many as they could and short FnF on the way down?
FnF up next.
Enough for another financial center in Miami?
#Fanniegate up next.
JIM CRAMER: I just want to go back to Fannie Mae. When you hear something like a Fannie Mae $2 stock, do you say, listen, it's just the government and I don't want to master it, or is this intrigue?
NELSON PELTZ: No, Bill shines in those kinds of things. That's not an area that we feel comfortable in. We like brands. We like franchises that we understand.
WILLIAM ACKMAN: I had a meeting with an investor once, a big institution in the U.K. And I described our investment and general growth, when the stock was 50 cents and what the whole story is. He called it the sex and violence part of our portfolio.
Fannie Mae is in the sex and violence part.
JIM CRAMER: Which is the favorite stock -- which is your favorite stock in his portfolio? Which is your favorite stock in his portfolio?
WILLIAM ACKMAN: I don't know.What do you got?
NELSON PELTZ: I'm going to take Fannie Mae because I know nothing about it, but I've got great confidence in Bill.

Even Ackman loves sex and violence.

They have $10B under management.

Activist investor Bill Ackman, the CEO of $18 billion Pershing Square Capital Management, said the most interesting investment in his portfolio right now are mortgage originators Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
The 49-year-old activist investor was on a panel his friend and fellow activist investor Nelson Peltz, the CEO of Trian Fund Management at the CNBC/Institutional Investor Delivering Alpha Conference at the Pierre Hotel in New York.
"Mad Money" host Jim Cramer asked them for their single best idea.
Ackman said said it's Fannie and Freddie, but "no one has really noticed." By the way, he presented on Fannie and Freddie at the Sohn Conference in 2014. At that time, Ackman said he sees the stock price ranging from $23 to $47 in the future.
According to Ackman, this investment offers "the most upside and probably has the most downside."
Fannie and Freddie needed massive bailouts amid the financial crisis and were subsequently taken over by the government. As a shareholder, Ackman thinks the government will eventually agree that we need a less regulated Fannie and Freddie.
He did admit, though, that there's a "lot of risk" in the trade.
Peltz said he has two new positions that account for 1/3 of Trian's portfolio. He said he's not ready to announce them. He gave some hints, though. One is industrial and the other one hasn't been categorized yet.

Either that or differing case stratagies.
"Differing case strategies: Sometimes lawyer and client won't agree on the best approach for handling a case. If you and your attorney are unable to reach agreement, then the attorney should withdraw."
Total speculation, but what if Gregg suggested USG settle and USG did not like the recomendation? Can't see any other reason he would leave mid trial other than difference of opinion on the litigation.
You're right. FNMA supports Joe Public. Good thing this isn't being tried in the court of public opinion.
"we also note that Gregg M. Schwind, one of the Government’s primary attorneys in this case, left the Department of Justice on July 10, 1015. "
Running scared.
Shakedown was in full force today.
