Dollar Falls to Record Low Over Fannie and Freddie
It is true that there is the subprime problem .
Short sellers pull down financials would only fuel the vicious cycle that spiral the economy from bad to worst .
Sure , the short sellers are strong and concerted .
All financials could go down more than 5% or even 10% in one or two hours time .
The concerted strength can only be released by some conspired power .
Such conspiracy is a crime .
As well , it certainly would successfully push a panic button to the general investors who may only want a quiet life when retired from long years of work .
Cutting the equity of bank stock by pulling down their prices would of course put the bank in a credit crunch .
The short sellers are fed in expense of the bank's equity .
The only way to savage this economy is to buy against the short sellers so that the financial equity or pricing can be raised to a reasonable level .
Fannie / Freddie ( FNM / FRE ) are the stocks of most strategic importance .
Should a strong defender step in to buy against the short seller so that the pricing can be maintained at a reasonable level .
The whole financial market would be at the start to be stablized .
FNM / FRE would need the equity or reasonable pricing in order to facilitate the passing of the mortgage rescue law .
The mortgage rescue plan would effectively stablize the housing market on a permenant basis .
I knew for the fact that some government encountered a similar financial cresis with the short sellers .
The same government buy against the short seller to maintain a reasonable price level , by using a trust funds being set up with the taxpayers' money .
The trust funds then owned a pile of the stock purchased from the open market without diluting the corporation at issue .
The stock price then grow back to normal and the trust funds made huge money for the taxpayers .
The short sellers lost a huge chunk of money and disappeared .
The bad news used by the short sellers disappeared as well .
Can the bulk of people , general investors and public inclusive , win this financial war against a small group but organized short sellers ?
Financials: Don't Believe the Rumors
The only difference is that the short sellers are much stronger than the defenders .
Yes , it is a financial war and not just a market of supply and demand .
All bank stocks are commonly seen sliding over 5% in price in just about 2 hours time , regardless the financial strength of each individual bank .
Such strong concerted power can only be released by a conspired group of short sellers .
Conspiracy is criminal .
Panic catch on by the general public and the price went down further .
The defenders of price become weaker due to their loss of equity .
Lowering price or equity , credit crunch , weakening economy all come into a vicious cycle and domino effect .
Such huge depletion of pricing has nothing to do with the value of the bank stocks .
Some banks are paying dividend at a rate of more than 20% to the now depleted price .
Yes , they would cut dividend in the next quarter while their equity is cut tremendously by the invincible short sellers .
Strong defenders are needed to buy against the short sellers so that the badly depleted price can be pull back . The confidence of investors would be accordingly restored .
The Fannie / Freddie stocks are immensely important in strategy .
Should the Fannie / Freddie stock pricing be stablized , the pricing of the rest of the financials are less easy to be pull down further .
The equity values of the two are of immense importance to the passing of the mortgage rescue plan .
The mortgage rescue plan would then help to stablize the housing market .
I know for the fact that some government did encounter a similar financial war .
The same government stepped in to buy against the short sellers by setting up a trust funds using the taxpayers' money .
The same government won and made money for the trust funds as a result that the pricing grow back to normal .
The shortseller lost a huge chunk of money and disappeared .
All those bad news the shortsellers used disappeared as well .
Can the good guys win the war ?
