I held various classes of Lehman Brothers (preferred, equity, and hybrid CTs) and CUSIPs for several of them were no longer showing in my account, but recently, they returned and it says "possible future distribution."
Is this what we may see happen with our disappeared WMIH CUSIPs?

Looking forward to new earnings report. Revenues are going to be insane.
Just catching up here. There's a class action? How do I join?

Zoiks! I had to check mine. I am up $5535.14 (3.65%). Now I can estimate how many more shares than me you have.
Sorry, just catching up after USAA transfered all of my investment accounts over to Schwab.
To clarify, I hold three classes of escrows, each CUSIP with description below:
939ESC968: "WA FUNDING TR III XXX ESCROW POSITION FOR FUTURE PAYMENT"
9393ESC84: "WAMU PFD FDGF XXXESCROW PNDG FUTURE DIST"
939ESC992: "WA FUNDING TR III XXXD05/24/07 6.895% MS99 ESCROW POSITION"
I only see the interest rate on the 939ESC992 escrows. It states: "WA FUNDING TR III XXXD05/24/07 6.895% MS99 ESCROW POSITION"
From a linguistics standpoint, "FOR FUTURE PAYMENT" indicates certainty, does it not? Whereas "PNDG FUTURE DIST" sounds more squishy.
My common 939ESC968 escrows in Schwab state: 'WA FUNDING TR III XXX ESCROW POSITION FOR FUTURE PAYMENT' when hovering over. Anyone else seeing this?
Preferred escrows state: "WAMU PFD FDGF XXXESCROW PNDG FUTURE DIST"
Who's ready to be a millionaire?
Something leak?
Are these CTs I have been sitting on for twelve years going to be worth anything?
Are those who signed releases and got COOP shares going to receive additional shares? Trying to play a little catch up here after years of not following the board very much.
After reading the latest Glen Bradford op-ed in Seeking Alpha and in addition to the huge common position I have staked out over the years, I'm considering cashing out the equity in my house and using it to purchase JPS trading at 20 cents on the dollar, and using the gains to turn around and pay off the mortgage balance once the dust settles. I call it the Glen Bradford play.
Squeeze or does this run have legs?
Tell me about it. He tweeted a pic of himself flexing in the gym at me. I was like okay Chucky, I'm flattered but this isn't prison.
Don't worry guys, right on queue, Gasbag all over it:
BREAKING: @stevenmnuchin1 just said @FannieMae @FreddieMac cannot be released from conservatorship without "appropriate capital." He didnt define appropriate, but it doesnt seem like he's rushing to release either of the GSEs despite the recent surge in the stocks $FNMA $FMCC

Make it rain!
He's tweeting loads of incoherent gibberish. He's a damn fool.
Bless your heart thinking that inquiring / musing about the efficacy of something, whether compelling or not, under the context of medical research constitutes a directive to drink or inject household chemicals. Also bless your heart for assuming that the term 'disinfectant' isn't a class that includes a whole spectrum of agents beyond household chemicals, such as light, ph adjusted water (alkaline or acidic which are both safe inside the body at certain levels), etc.
She's done playing games.
Has anybody sold COOP stock from their brokerage account after being issued them as part of the POR 7 (former WAMU holders)? I have an EOY tax statement that has 'unknown' for cost basis and I was curious how I am supposed to account for these for tax purposes.
As much as I am tempted to go all in on commons, I am still maintaining a 75% common / 25% pref. ratio.
So we have to file some additional claim documents in addition to the releases we signed way back when???
Defiantly not a hedge fund. Neither are my kids' 529 aggressive growth funds that are heavy into the GSEs.
This is the game they are playing. "All the world is a stage" is right and for them to come right out and say that they have decided on an exclusive path forward to recapitalize, therefore they need to attract future shareholders, therefore current shareholders will inevitable benefit, they would be accused of trying to enrich their hedge fund buddies which is irrelevant since releasing the GSEs is the right thing to do and is in line with the law. I believe Calabria and Mnuchin know the right thing to do and they are playing the Washington two step, in which they are forced to speak out of both sides of their mouth, or at least appear to be considering the option that existing shareholder's could lose, in order to get things done with minimal push-back from a congress that makes a lot of noise but has no bite. The scoff was the tell. Calabria and Mnuchin's paradigm is not aligned with this rule-of-law averse group in Congress.
Wouldn't this reduce the urgency to issue more shares? If so this is YUGE!
Calabria says GSEs could exit early under consent decree.
In discussion at @MasonLEC, @FHFA Director @MarkCalabria publicly indicated #GSEs could leave conservatorship before hitting top capital threshold and operate under consent decree. pic.twitter.com/N5a4IvYdLs

Yeah, caught that immediately after posting. Doh!
Timothy Sykes had FNMA tagged in tweet last week along with a handful of other tickers advertising his short sell strategy to his army of short sellers. Just an FYI.
I believe Mnuchen is in our corner and what we are seeing now is just theatrics. He is going about this intelligently giving Congress the chance to act, knowing full well that they are incapable. At this point, if he were to just flex his muscle unilaterally to resolve this, he would be accused of helping out his hedge fund billionaire pals. He is setting this up beautifully. There is no coincidence in the Thursday and Friday timing of news.
So is value going to manifest via COOP or escrow shares? Thus far, selling off half of my COOP position and buying GSE common and preferred shares has worked out swimmingly. I am curious if at some point I should take some GSE profits (spread across Roth, traditional and brokerage accounts) and transition them back into COOP.
Whelp I just exited half my position in COOP this morning right after listening to Calabria's comments on the GSEs. I haven't got an effing clue why I am holding on to the other half but we'll see I guess.
Is there a reason to be in poop at all if I already have my escrow markers?
I'm would guess that a few preferred shareholders are transitioning into commons today.

Playing catch up here but are you expecting COOP share price appreciation as a direct result of a distribution or as secondary result from all these former WAMU'ers suddenly having excess capital to invest in COOP?
