Fannie Mae-No Politics (FNMA)

"I think very soon, UST will need to suspend short-selling for 3-6 months. This is the only way to stop the panic free fall. And, I suppose this measure is necessary in crisis. This is just my suggestion and estimation."


Intuitively and logically thinking, this should be the first step to protect the integrity of the financial markets and economy. If this is done as a first step then the damage to financial markets and economy will be minimal and recovery will be faster.

However wall street traders control the Gov, so this is done as a last step or never done.

In 2008, Hank implemented the ban on short selling when the crisis started bankrupting the traders.
