*************************
Now the Rampant Speculation Should Begin
I received the email below from a financially/economically bright , colorful, and creative friend, who shipped it following Fannie's announcement last week that it will send $59.5 Billion in cash to the Treasury.
“If one adds fairly minimum amounts for the three quarters of the rest of the year, (Fannie will send Treasury) north of $75 billion for the year. In fact, (Fannie now is) paying so much to Treasury in dividends that it will push back the date that the whole country hits the debt ceiling and Obama has to lock horns with congressional Republicans again.”
“Of course, the way that Henry Paulson arranged the deal in 2008, it's like being in hock to the Mafia; (Fannie) can pay and pay but never get free.”
“Or, as the song “Hotel California” goes”:
Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
"Relax, " said the night man,
"We are programmed to receive.
You can check-out any time you like,
But you can never leave! "
That's a Lot of Money, Jeb, What Should We Do Now??
Fannie/Freddie, each reporting record earnings this past week, have created quite a buzz among those who understand the stakes and are aware that some Congress heavyweights—notably the Chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, Jeb Hensarling (R-Tex)--see the two as twin cancers requiring legislative eradication. And Jeb controls the agenda in the House committee.
It could be that Hensarling understands all too well that the income F&F are generating—and projecting--could influence his peers and colleagues to think Fannie and Freddie would be helpful to the nation (remember those people, guys?) and a more productive way to deal with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac exists rather then Hensarling's desired evisceration.
For those who despise Fannie because they somehow manifest the federal government—and got bailed out by the same--or that the two encouraged homeownership back in the day (and God forbid once –at least at Fannie--had prominent Democrats working there), your complaints could become transitory.
A closer review shows that Fannie’s and Freddie's “mortgage sins” were the same that every major “PRIVATE” financial institution in the nation committed (with each benefiting from their own federal subsidies).
F&F bought Wall Street private label subprime (PLS) mortgage securities--not because they were encouraged by the federal government to make mortgage funds money available to low, moderate and middle income Americans—but because they faced revenue and market share losses and hoped to recoup.
Opponents like to conflate those separate matters because they want to blur the systemic benefits that the “old” Fannie and Freddie brought to the nation and, in some sense, still do.
Lots of Good News Embedded in F&F Earnings
Let me suggest to those on the Hill, not already wedded to the Tea Party ideology, the good news-- despite the reactionary chants from Hensarling and others—is that you have time to digest just what these positive earnings represent. Maybe look closely at why Bush Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson structured his F&F “take over deal” the way he did, so Fannie and Freddie never would appear to pay back the governmental (unlike GM, AIG and others). And, also, while the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), F&F's current regulator is too hands-on, it successfully has made it impossible for the two to finance any form of subprime mortgage, which deals with legitimate concerns over future financial taxpayer risk.
As my lyrical friend notes above--and I will add the Freddie perspective-- between the two of them, conservatively, Fannie could pay back an additional $25-$35 Billion this year and Freddie $20 to $25 Billion, with an emphasis on conservative.
The revenue opportunities go on.
I am not counting any Deferred Tax Account (DTA) Freddie could employ, as Fannie just did, which could send even more to the taxpayers or future financial damages received by both from several active lawsuits they have against major banks for fraudulent bad mortgage loan deliveries.
A additional F&F revenue wild card is—as large banks already have begun to do—Fannie and Freddie could reduce their loan loss reserves and convert them to bottom line income, increasing their profitability and expand what they plan to send the big money house at the corner of Pennsylvania Avenue and 15th Street.
Someone suggested that F&F—at current loss rates—already have 10 to 12 years worth of loss reserves on their books, which their regulator soon will have to agree to allow them to move down and then give it to the Treasury.
The Full Financial Return to Treasury Could Be Real Soon!
Play with those variables and, in any sense of the “paying back” concept, Fannie and Freddie could pay back the government in two years or less and be financially viable and a systemic asset to the nation.
Are these the types of institutions a majority in Congress should vote to disassemble or otherwise destroy because in the past they were cheerleaders for homeownership, as both parties demanded, or initially spawned by the Roosevelt Administration?
And, finally, what is the mortgage investing substitute?
Rampantly speculate on a Fannie/Freddie successor, since that's what Washington has been doing since 2008--when Paulson first bollixed the two--and explain why that mortgage model would be an improvement.
I've made my case against the big banks exclusively owning the nation's mortgage finance systems and I don't need to repeat it.
The big 7 or 8 Too Big Too Fail Banks (see link below to Barry Ritholz column) are not reliable partners to mortgage seeking consumers, as least when they don't have a Fannie or Freddie on which to layoff their mortgage risks.
http://www.ritholtz.com/blog/2013/05/brown-vitter-try-to-end-too-big-to-fail/
I've also written often, I think the large banks enjoy having F&F in their current mortgage investor roles, because it makes it easier for banks to manage their mortgage business. But the big guys are “commercial banks” and recent reports suggest they are ramped up to do more of that needed lending and bless them for it....if it is true. I am betting keeping some form of Fannie and Freddie in place helps the big banks.
Use The Time Wisely to Consider and Understand
So, policy makers, their staffs, think tanks, media, and all who propound politically on new designs for the nation's mortgage finance system, take a timeout offered by the Fannie/Freddie earnings flow and try and understand and ask why many feel need dramatic changes when statutory and regulatory changes may already have created most of the future market structure the nation needs.
Two recent articles, one in Barron's, and one in “The Hill” discussing matters in today's blog are worth reading.
http://online.barrons.com/article/SB50001424052748704253204578466950395417708.html
http://thehill.com/blogs/on-the-money/1091-housing/299147-mortgage-profits-could-sap-will-in-congress-for-reforms
Again, nobody is suggesting that F&F, if used in some future capacity, never be altered. I suggest that people understand how these very productive institutions achieved success in the past and to consider, with several operational regulatory changes already made, how they can do it again.
Congress needs that review before they get swayed by those in power who, thoughtlessly, would pitch Fannie and Freddie out with the bath water.
(BTW. Kudos to my old friend—not the author of the opening email—Rob Zimmer, a former Fannie colleague before going to be one of Freddie's top lobbyists, who now has his own financial government relations practice. Someone called my attention to my Feb. 26, 2011 blog, in which Rob essentially predicted the F&F turnaround, two years ago, which the world recently has seen.)

What would the total OS be if the government were to exercise there warrants 79% of the commons.
Bought in on Friday
Has any tried calling ED lately
Does any one know if this designation has anything to do with not filling their financial requirements.
From their last 10Q
In April 2012, the JOBS Act was enacted. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. Thus, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to avail ourselves of this extended transition period and, as a result, we will adopt new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for private companies.

This plot is getting to be just like a afternoon soap episode.
Thanks for the new twist in character development MoMo, even more entertaining.
I hope nobody really believes all this load of cra* though.
I feel for those that will lose here ( believing all the deception)
Yes, I know that I am wondering why they would acquire the stock when it is in bankruptcy proceedings
Why buy?
Fmrick

I bet it hits .006 today with the news of the A/S increase
Web site now gone
I bet it hits .006 today with the news of the A/S increase
I think you will be one of the lucky ones to have gotten out early. Good move

The above is the link for SRGE corporation updates.
Good luck with thinking that dilution is not coming
If it goes to triple 0's it won't be coming back for another pump it will be done!
Good luck with your buy at that level
Come on in a buyout if you have the product or in this case the mine that the other company wants you they pay you with shares or cash . You got it backwards
You have been conned
They have now pumped to .0147 and raised the a/s 500 mill
That gives this fraud team or SGRE an approx pump profit of 7,500,000 now when sold or Diluted
Who are you trying to convince. A company that was suppose to be buying back shares now comes out with a a/s increase of 500,000,000 And The transfer agent is gaged!! Wow
Only means dilution is coming.
Nice pump so far here comes the big Dump
Take your profits now while you can
reverse split there will be no common stock left
Lets see what happens
A report of preliminary hearing and scheduling order was entered on July 12, 2012, pursuant to which the parties were directed to proceed with discovery, and the arbitration hearing was scheduled to commence on November 12, 2012. The Company believes the claim is without merit and intends to defend itself vigorously. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will prevail in arbitration.
Lets take a look at this great dividend payment
Investment of 2,000
= 222,222 shares at .009
Dividend received for 222,222@ .00003 = $ 6.66
you sell the day after the record date of November 15 ( there will be a sell off)
If you are lucky and sell at .0089
..0089@222,222=1977.78 ( loss of 22.22)
.6.66-22.22= -15.56
Loss of 15.56
Not a good dividend payout
Just a poor attempt at a company pump
What a joke of a press release
The company has 799,900,000 shares outstanding a dividend of .oooo3 cents per share it is a total payout of 24,000. Wow!!! What a pump.
ALso your dividend is only .375 % of the current price
Look out
If you do web sites than you know they would have put up a page that says under construction. This is clearly a case of poor management not pay a bill.
The site is down

No company wants their web page down during trading hours
Good day here

Wonder how much ray is owed and the percentage of claim he has as a creditor
Watch for another big dump today , what a mess. This will hit .0001 today for sure.
Are you kidding Carl wake-up this is going to .0001 soon.
I wonder if the stock price will be adjusted by x25,000
.0001x25,000= 2.5
What a joke
I agree it only makes sense that insiders are dumping. However what are the note holders going to say or do, with management dumping and bringing the price down.
Down we go
Carl you really need to read the sec fillings to completely understand this stock. It's going down to .0001
Remember 10 billion As ,and they need them all to pay the note holders. Today will be the same as yesterday it may hit .0005
Something is up
Yah it's bad but it will get worse and Smitter you are right the only way to make money on this stock is to buy at .0001
And It will get there.
The note holders are either dumping because something is really bad or they have done a new conversion in that case look for an 8k coming
Wow, probable issued for payroll as they need to conserve cash. Wow!!!!
