Freddie and Fannie are at a MAJOR risk of the government taking them back over as they started out. If that happens, there will be no stockholders.

Short plays only on this stock for now until the crystal ball becomes clearer. Reorganization or what ever the government wishes to call it will do a LOT more than toss the UAW.
