I was keying this on my phone while distracted watching Baltimore lose this afternoon, and didn't realize how fed gov only came out as fed (like fed reserve, which is not what I meant). My Faux pas, and thanks for catching that.
And by fed gov, I mean that I believe that neither the fhfa, or the President, will release them unilaterally. I think the do nothing Congress will have a hand in their eventual release. I really wish that weren't the case, but dicks like Corker and Warner have already shown influence on Watt... who's to say some fnuts won't crawl out of the wood work and squeeze the likes of Calabria?
Significant is obviously a relative term, I suppose. But I'd say that if a speculator has enough shares to consider themselves rich once risky stocks like FnF cross over certain threshold ($10?, $20, $30?), I'd say maybe they have a significant amount of shares. Then again, rich is also a relative term. Right?
In reference to my use of "significant" earlier, my thoughts were on the Vegas List when I wrote that. Simply a fun list of hopeful FnF longs, from years ago, that will have something to celebrate in Nevada should these stocks ever take off.
Good Luck!
All of us who hold significant shares will be drinking at the Vegas party if the Fed does what's right. They just need to actually do it.
1.09? 10 years? Both are highly unlikely, but if it makes you feel good to keep posting silly crap on this board, more power to ya. Just know that the serious folks can see right through you.
Oh man, you hopped on this bandwagon right after Trump won the election and you've been holding without taking any profits during the pump and dumps since?
Dude, no one with any sense should ever argue that point. Everyone knows the GSEs are important... but that has nothing to with watching your ass when playing this stock. Remember, FnF are companies who's massive profits have no bearing on their current pps. The current pps is determined by the MMs.
Apperantly, you don't see when a fellow FnF fanboy is trying to help ya save some cabbage, so I'll just stop wishing you luck and keep a lookout for your posts after the next sell-off.
From your keyboard to God's ears. But, don't say you haven't been warned. I'm FnF long, but the only reason I'm not at a loss is because of properly playing the pump and dump and not being greedy. Again, good luck and keep an eye on the Bolli.
Yawn
I used to play that way too. I'm no genius, but I do like Warren Buffet's methodology of buying and selling a specific holding over time and never all at once. Sure, sometimes you miss out on a potential gain but other times you save yourself from an ugly loss. And for me, there's nothing in this game more satisfying than when a stock takes a tumble (goes on sale) and I have the $$$ to average down or simply buy in cheap.
GLTY
Ha! Much of the stuff posted on these boards are borderline fraudulent, especially when it comes to OTC stocks.
I just find it amusing when obvious newbie shorters, or pumpers, discover a stock then try to play know-it-alls.
We may see ourselves close to a buck again, but not because any of these fools predicted it. Just the MMs doin their thing, and I always have some $$ set aside for when they do! :)
Says an alias that was born less than a month ago. LOL. Shorta Please!!!
News of release will pop it, actual release will pop it further... whether it's warranted, or not. Remember, for as many shorters that there are spewing crap on these boards, there will be many more pumpers doing their thing if FnF gets released. Remember about 4 1/2 years ago when it hit the 6 range due to hype?
I'd say it goes past that before the pumpers take their profits.
*Not advice, just wishful thinking
There are times I wish I could "like" a comment (like on Facebook). This is one of those occasions.
Today's pop brought to you by ??????
Hope it's the beginning of something.
I'm still in... with even more accumulated. ;)
I just made 100% on the single share I had left. That's a .0001 gain in just one day! And people say this stock is a turd. LOL
Depends on how you question him. On another note, Blue isn't wrong that often. Patience is key if you decide to follow his lead. IFON is but one example.
I have fingers crossed that a favorable outcome will happen for FnF, but neither are mentioned in the Bloomberg article attached to this tweet.
Uploaded a year ago... didn't even show up on the national media's radar. smh
Yup. TDA just told me the same thing. 10:30am and I'm still seeing zeros.
I know you're joking, but I also know the corporate climate at both FnF... and if there's one thing that's certain with these two it's that their employees will never strike.
Upper management has made sure that there is no one in middle/lower management who is indispensable. In fact, in the multiple lay-offs over the past 15 years, I've even seen long-term employees as well as VPs walked out while contractors got to stay to finish up their 12-18 month terms (12 months is usually the maxf per contract, but the higher-end contractors can get extensions to 18). Comes a point where people have been there just long enough to "make too much" and that's when they get the boot.
Not sure if this information from 2/28 has already been posted, but this news is just another simple indicator that FnF aren't going anywhere anytime soon.

Fannie Mae agreed to lease a large block of space in Boston Properties' proposed Reston Gateway as part planned consolidation of its Northern Virginia footprint.
The financial services company will lease 850,000 square feet for its new Northern Virginia hub starting in 2022, Boston Properties (NYSE: BXP) disclosed Wednesday. That accounts for a substantial majority of the 1 million square feet Boston Properties plans to develop on the site, which could eventually be expanded to up to 3.5 million square feet of mixed-use development by the Silver Line's planned Reston Town Center Metro station slated to open in 2020.
Fannie Mae now leases about 1.5 million square feet in the region, including at One Reston Crescent, but had settled on Reston Gateway for its new Northern Virginia base some time ago, as the Washington Business Journal reported exclusively in January. The deal is the latest in a string of victories for Boston Properties, which recently inked a deal to build contractor Leidos Holdings Inc. (NYSE: LDOS) a new headquarters nearby at Reston Town Center.
Fannie Mae's national headquarters in downtown D.C., at Carr Properties' Midtown Center, is nearly finished.
Perhaps this 10 month-old fact check might be helpful to you.

Bob Corker could take some lessons from this guy! Remember how he arrived late, and left early, during Watts' hearing on FnF last year?
Well, here we have Lord Michael Bates resigning just because he was a coupla minutes late (though his resignation wasn't accepted). If only we could have that kind of humility when it comes to our representatives dealing with the GSEs.
Perhaps Navarro could be placed on the FnF case... Jussayin
I concur. Corker is such a 'paid for' pos that I'm confident he did this to drop share price so his investment house can scoop up a load before good news brings them back up again. Never put anything past him cause this fool has wilfully gone on tv and suggested shorting FnF stock... With no reproductions!
Now, I've seen this stock tumble close to a buck, and Freddie hit 99 cents, only to recover by 200% within the year.
I'm not going to recommend a buy to anyone cause they may not be able to stomach the temporary hit, but these firms are way too valuable to dispose of, and the outstanding shares are not just held by investors... they're held by employees of FnF. Employees that were allowed to purchase that stock through their retirement programs. In short, naysayers can shoot down this post all they want but I suspect they'd be nothing more than shorters hoping to enter at a better price for maximum gain (truth be told, I'm waiting a bit longer before adding to my curent positions).
Exacty! That's where my shares are parked, and I have no problem with this temporary drop... need my Roth contributions to settle as well. Good luck!
Last day of 2017 trading is over. Glta longs, and thanks to those who've contributed constructively to this board. I appreciate information that keeps me updated with the FnF drama.
As for the MMs, here's to you having to find other companies to manipulate on the OTC besides these in 2018! Yeah, I know FnF still have a ways to go, but ya never know! Release, end of NWS, up listing and a Vegas toast may not be as out of reach as it was since the sweep began.
Happy New Years!
WTF?!!! I go out of town for a week and don't bother to check my pot stocks till today... and see that my LXRP AND Abattis exploded! Don't know what happened but I'll take it!
I know.
That's great! Care to share?
Not offended bro. But Citadel, nor the other 2 C's, isn't a one man operation. Meaning, I seriously doubt it's just one fool in those shops pulling the trigger on lxrp or FnF for that matter. Both are also taking a beating over the past few days.
Hmmm... referring to CDEL as "he" and not "they"
If there ever was a time to use Twitter, maybe now would be a good time to tweet Trump some info about Corker shorting FnF and the fact that he and Warner were involved in a fund that made millions from shorting the twins. You know how Trump never speaks in absolutes, but gets his point across just the same? "I don't know, but people are sayin..."

You were saying?
I subscribe to this methodology 100%. Well, 20-40%. Ha!
The key is diligently holding a reasonable core amount that would keep you satisfied should the stock blast off (just like Cringe points out). Me? I prefer to hold a base of 60%-ish, and trade 20-40% on the pumps and profit taking.
All my trades are in our Roth accounts. Have more than doubled our FnF holdings over the past 4 years by holding a core and trading 30-50% of my shares on the fluctuations. Will never pay a dime in capital gains so long as we don't take the "gains" out before 59 1/2.
Don't consider it cowardly. Consider it hedging your bets. I dedicate a certain portion of my FnF holdings to play the rises and drops, but ALWAYS hold a comfortable sum just incase these two pull a "Tesla" and blast off overnight. Remember when Tesla did that in 2013?
Fyi, I also unloaded a block today with the expectation that FnF will be doing its usual slow bleed down to the mid 2s. Hope I'm not wrong, but won't freak out if I am! :) glta
This the most transparent BS I've seen to date on this matter!!! Trying to smear Watt right before he testifies with his opinions, or decisions, on FnF in a feable attempt to keep him in line. Corknutz and his peeps must be worried in order to pull this one out of their culos.
Ouch! 72% hit. Possible buying opportunity?
