barrons3	Now we are seeing it in spades. Last week we saw some thorough bank research making it clear that there will be nothing left for common stock shareholders when Fannie and Freddie get reorganized.	Love	October 29, 2009

Stockpickr Staff	"The government owns roughly 80% of [Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac], leading traders to refer to them as 'zombies' since they are private in name only and largely controlled by the government." <a href="http://www.thestreet.com/story/10565800/1/aig-fannie-mae-and-freddie-mac-rise-from-the-dead.html" target="_blank">Read more here</a> and <a href="http://www.thestreet.com/story/10592480/1/zombie-stocks-mauled-by-bears.html" target="_blank">here</a>.

Stockpickr Staff	"Was there a bigger punch line of a joke than Freddie Mac (FRE)? Of course, Fannie Mae (FNM)! Will you look at how they are trading? And I am talking about monumental gains. Huge. The speculators nailed it. They were so much smarter than the intellectuals and the aggressive, uninformed short-sellers." <a href="http://jimcramer.rmblogs.thestreet.com/entry.aspx?q=4783ee92-d5b6-4308-9acb-9c7300cac6db" target="_blank">"Speculators 1, Shorts 0," Aug. 28, 2009</a>	Love	August 31, 2009
MPK0706	Long Term	Love	August 28, 2009
barrons3	Again, though, maybe stocks like Citigroup (C) and Goldman are ahead of themselves. Maybe the financial group is too frothy -- witness the final reversals in Fannie (FNM) and Freddie (FRE) mentioned here earlier as perhaps being worthless.	Love	August 27, 2009
barrons3	They are in love with Fannie (FNM) and Freddie (FRE), I imagine because they think these are the best plays on the turn in housing. I don't think the government has really spelled out how much money these companies must return to the government before figuring out what is left for the common. There is little research out on either, so it is pretty much a dice roll. Man, are they ever on the move, though.	Love	August 27, 2009

Stockpickr Staff	Eric Jackson: "Fifth Third Bank (FITB) rocketed 25% yesterday after news came out that its mortgage unit had refinanced $21 million of Freddie Mac (FRE) loans recently. "There's no question that when you look at FITB -- or any of the regional banks -- they look cheap on a price-to-book basis. ..." <a href="http://www.thestreet.com/story/10496626/1/top-takes-from-realmoney.html" target="_blank">Read more here.</a>	Love	May 05, 2009
