This board is to discuss Fannie Mae (FNM), the Economy, and the Real Estate Market in general. Trading ideas based on these topics are fair game too. Welcome, we look forward to your input!
A major liquidity driver during the Real Estate Boom of 2001-200?, FNM plays a major role in our economy by providing the cash to strapped consumers who seem to be more than willing to exchange their dwindling home equity for it.
Benefitting from the many commissions associated with rolling over FNM's many debt issuances, Wall Street will support this company to the very end. This board is to provide a competing point of view to the "Strong Buy" Happy Boyz on the Street who don't want you to know the real problems so that they can continue to get their commissions.
