If the usg contiues to keep their "cash cow" fannie, then status quo will continue. Which is a lot greater value than .25 Only chance this goes to zero is when usg decides to get rid of their cash cow. And why would they do that? It is a cash cow, right? Nobody gets rid of the goose that lays the golden egg. Unless, they have it taken from them through the lawsuits that are out there trying to release them. Neither option is happening soon. Long run, we either lose everything or gain thousands % increase. Up to the individual investor which choice they make. Or you can day trade and make easy money too. Everyone investing here knows the risk and the reward. Dont risk more than you can afford to lose. If it does go to 0.00 then awe shucks. But the only other option is it goes to the $50-100 range, and thats more like awwww hell yeah!
