Weekly MACD finally crossed and held end of day today. This is huge correct? Do we need to hold positive until the end of week or what is the usual technical MACD rules for charting?
This is a major event and every investor in the GSEs should be paying attention. In 2013 his words demolished the share price and this week his words should have an equal affect, positive or negative... IMO, with all the news and the profitability of FnF, it will be positive. It's only logical. However... Logical is not always reality.
More music to our ears, a lot of good news out there on deck right now, wish I had more cash
New year, big things coming with FNMA and FMCC, get in while you can!
Huge, bug stuff coming!
Minnesota twins win AL central in 2015, mark it
A 10% interest rate on roughly 187 billion since '08 is insane if this is what the calculation concludes. I Meant 10% of the 187 bill which is 18.7 bill surplus which has been far surpassed with the latest payment that put the total over 220 billion which is over 10 percent borrowed....
It would be a little crazy if this applied to FnF and not the other bailouts that were just declared "officially over" and were far less profitable than the FnF situation
It's absurd and I'm still baffled at what's going on with these companies as is everyone else. However I think we get justice this year, even if the warrants are exercised by the government, honestly if we'd see 20 I'll be ecstatic after going through the ups and downs of this roller coaster the last few years
That undefined interest rate is a biotch isn't it? :)
they have given exactly that much to the treasury though and nobody can deny that ;) it's also over ten percent of what was borrowed and nobody can deny that either ;)
FannieMae paid 3.999 billion and FreddieMac paid 2.786 billion to USTreasury on 31Dec14, total of 131.4 and 90.6 respectively
LEAVE A MESSAGE FOR WATT
This link is from the Tim Howard Blog, and allows us to leave a comment to the FHFA on the recent Housing Trust Fund action. Will it do any good? Who knows, but we can at least display more dismay and voice how foolish it is to take hundreds of millions from FnF without them being able to build capital first

SIGN PETITION AND SHARE
"We're not even close to 100k."
To expect 100k at the start of this was unrealistic. The objective is to use one of the few rights we have as shareholders (the right to petition our government) and display the new wave of support we have behind us. Nine months ago we tried this same White House Petition and received only 505 signatures in 30 days. Currently we have 854 in a week. This is huge, and the more signatures we get the stronger we look.
Twitter is our best friend. More importantly than getting a signature from someone we tweet to, we are spreading the cause and hopefully making more and more people aware of the current situation. I encourage all of you to take to twitter and tweet anyone and everyone. This is what I have been tweeting:
" Please support the end of @FannieMae and @FreddieMac conservatorship #ReleaseFnF https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/release-freddie-mac-and-fannie-mae-federal-government-conservatorship/RmNVw8sB …"
I will continue to send tweets until the end of this petition and beyond, until we get justice.
Good luck everyone, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
i've tweeted it 5,600 times to realtors, followers of @fanniemae and other housing pages. I can only tweet 300 times every three hours so we definitely need more. it's been Favorited and retweeted dozens of times. it's getting the word out at least and if we're lucky we can get a retweet from someone of importance. we have 837 vs 505 from last attempt, that's huge, and we still have three and a half weeks left to get more and show the new wave of support we have. i think we can get close to 2k which, contrary to some on here, is a lot

Front Page of this blog after re-tweet... keep it up. We may not be on pace for the needed 100k signatures, but the more we get the more support it conveys and I think we can easily get a couple thousand. tweet all the senators today as well, don't expect a response... tweeted @carney as well, I will continue to do so every day until we are released

The only thing it needs is to request release from conservatorship, it's that simple. It states that very clearly.
@SecurClassified just retweeted, 50.6k followers!
Keep tweeting everyone!!! This is the stuff that needs to happen to get a significant amount of signatures! It can snowball fast if we all do it!
505 sigs in 2 days vs 505 in 30
Last time we attempted the White House petition 9 months ago we only mustered up 505 signatures in 30 days, now we have 505 in just 2 days. 100k signatures is a long ways away and to expect to get to that is unrealistic at this pace. Is it possible? With the right endorsement I believe it is, that's why it is important that we all continue to push this petition out there and get as much as we possibly can. One re-tweet or mention on a major news network could mean hundreds or even thousands of signatures.
So what's the big deal if we might not make it to 100k?
This is a huge deal in my eyes, and should be to all of you. All of us who have followed the board for the last year have seen the support FnF have gained in the last 9 months, but this petition shows in writing how much support we have truly gained and how far we have come. We can end up with thousands of signatures on this which will only further display the support we have. This is huge for us.
Please sign if you haven't and Tweet, tweet and tweet! Congrats all, this is a testament to our efforts!

300 more tweets just sent, 300 more in 3 hours
lets all tweet and e-mail them, that would be great to have their backing
justed tweeted 300 more times, 1700 total all to @fanniemae followers. I suggest we get others to flood twitter with the message:
"Please support the end of Fannie and Freddie conservatorship by sharing this petition #ReleaseFnF https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/release-freddie-mac-and-fannie-mae-federal-government-conservatorship/RmNVw8sB …"
i'll finish the @fanniemae followers if someone wants to take @freddiemac followers.... you can only accomplish 300 tweets per 3 hours and 2500 a day, but with enough people we can send out thousands of tweets a day
DJ signer #49
I have not tried to do so, but i'm assuming it's similar to twitter in that it's allowed
we need more people committed to posting. we need to hit up the followers of @fanniemae and @freddiemac and any realtor pages. They all know the importance of these companies, anyone who works in the housing industry will understand
DJ signer #49
i've tweeted it 1400 times today and last night, it only lets you do 300 every three hours. the word will get out, we're almost over our last petition 9 months ago. we got 505 sigs in 30 days last time, it's only been a day and a half and we have 474... we can get a ton of sigs if we keep pushing this hard and get it mentioned on a major news network
I see D. I. at number 434, looks like you're good to go. Keep spreading the word! #ReleaseFnF
We need an all out twitter assault. I've been going under @fanniemae and anything realestate related and tweeting to the individual followers of the pages:
"Please support the end of Fannie and Freddie conservatorship by sharing this petition #ReleaseFnF https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/release-freddie-mac-and-fannie-mae-federal-government-conservatorship/RmNVw8sB …"
You can tweet 300 times every couple of hours and 2500 times a day. One retweet by the right person equals dozens of signatures, possibly hundreds....
I am thrilled by the turnout thus far. Last time we only received 505 sigs in 30 days! We are set to blow past that, possibly today. This shows the HUGE wave of support we have behind us now compared to then. This is nothing but good for us!!! Every signature past our last attempt is a win. Let's keep spreading the word!!!! #ReleaseFnF
WHITE HOUSE PETITION FOR RELEASE, PLEASE SIGN!!!
406 and counting in the first day. Petition is now public on White House petition page. We are well on our way to surpassing the 30 day total from our last attempt (505) to gain support 9 months ago.
Everyone please sign. We have waited far too long for just compensation, whether or not you just bought shares or went down with the ship in 2008, this is a matter of our government taking far too much power and stepping outside of their boundaries.
TWEET EVERYONE. You get 2500 tweets per day on twitter. Tweet realtors, people who follow Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, home builders John Carney (joke) etc... #ReleaseFnF .... A tweet by the right person could equal hundreds of signatures. SPREAD THE WORD!!!
https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/release-freddie-mac-and-fannie-mae-federal-government-conservatorship/RmNVw8sB
You get 2500 tweets a day on twitter, get tweeting!!! #ReleaseFnF ..... 384 signatures and counting.
WHY SIGN AND SPREAD THE PETITION?
Our last White House petition, 9 months ago when the stock price fell from its 52-week highs, received 505 signatures. I believe by surpassing our last total we can display the new wave of support we have behind us.
We currently have 230 signatures in 10 hours of its existence. Last petition received 505 in 30 days. We can destroy our old total....
Please sign and spread the word. Good luck.
https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/release-freddie-mac-and-fannie-mae-federal-government-conservatorship/RmNVw8sB
you're right it's not, but last petition we got 505 signatures, if and when this thing beats that it'll show how much support we have gathered since 9 months ago. with the right luck we can get it some publicity which could give us many more signatures than last time. spread the word
WHITE HOUSE PETITION FOR RELEASE, PLEASE SIGN!!!
190 and counting in the first eight hours. Petition is now public on White House petition page. We are well on our way to surpassing the 30 day total from our last attempt to gain support 9 months ago.
Everyone please sign. We have waited far too long for just compensation, whether or not you just bought shares or went down with the ship in 2008, this is a matter of our government taking far too much power and stepping outside of their boundaries.

150 signatures, We are public on WH Website!
This took days last time. What can we do to gain more momentum in the first few days?
1) Invite spouses, siblings, cousins and friends. Simply type in their information on the White House website and have them confirm the signature through the e-mail they will receive. With the 1600 plus followers of this board we can easily get a couple thousand signatures by this action alone and gain some good ground and get some attention.
2) Tweet, Tweet, Tweet. Get the message out to our biggest supporters and people with large followings, one re-tweet could equal a couple hundred signatures alone.
3) E-mail our supporters in the media. The best thing we can have happen is this gets mentioned on a popular blog or website, or even better, on air on a major network.
4) Continue to litter our forums for support. Share on Facebook and spread the word!
Put in the few minutes to do these things and let's utilize one of the few powers we have as investors in the current situation. Keep the faith and let's push forth!

Is 100,000 signatures reasonable? I believe so if we get some publicity. At the very least we will see how much more support we have now compared to our last petition. Let's get to 150 and go from there. Once we get 150 we go public on the page and then from there, if we can get picked up in a few articles and best case, a major news station, we are golden and the signatures will come.
