raising my target to $2100 from $1500. the burritto fart company chipotle stock is $3000/share with a market cap of 88 billion. i can make a bean burritto for a buck at home.
on the other hand, fannie mae is just north of 1 billion market cap. in 2023 alone provided $350 billion liquidlity to put a shade on the head of 1,500,000 people, 380,000 were first time homebuyers, was 28 on fortune 500 last year and 70% of 30 year fixed mortgages are supported by it. sad. fannie shouldn't be just used to clean the air filled with chipotle fart of dirty politicians for last 16 years of fake conservatorship and taking away all of its earning via net worth sweep. this action has resulted in many dying without seeing their hard earned retirement, loss of 529 whereas they are giving free tution to rest. didn't one of the judge said it feels like venezuela or something like it? $17.4 billion in net income in 2023, $28.8 billion in net interest income but a 1 billion market cap company. where is all the money? even a 9 panel washington dc jury unanimously ruled that this is all wrong and they are appealing the unnimous jury ruling too. sad. really sad.

Tim Howard post on the FHFA comments received for Freddie Mac’s home equity loan business proposal.
From Tim Howard:
Seeing this comment by EmployAmerica.org (which by itself isn’t of much import or interest) made we wonder who else may have responded to FHFA’s request for public comment on Freddie Mac’s proposal to purchase or guarantee closed-end second mortgages. Those comments were not as accessible on the FHFA website as were the ones for the various Fannie/Freddie capital or CRT proposals (they are on a spreadsheet that I had to download), but when I finally did find them I thought they were worth reporting on.
First of all, it seems the comment period ended on May 23 (the last date showing any), and given that fact it’s interesting we haven’t yet heard anything from FHFA about the responses it’s received. Second, there were far more comments on Freddie’s second-mortgage proposal, 443, than on any of the Fannie/Freddie capital or CRT proposals. Most of this was due to 251 comments submitted on May 21 by an equal number of individuals, all of whom attached one of several identical letters drafted by some unidentified source attempting an “Astroturf” (fake grassroots) campaign of opposition to the Freddie proposal. I had not seen that before, and it raised the question of who might have orchestrated these letters, and why.
Not all of the major housing or financial trade groups responded, but of those that did all either were opposed to Freddie financing second mortgages or expressed reservations about it (which would need to be clarified to their satisfaction before they would consider supporting it). Three mortgage insurance entities (US Mortgage Insurers, Arch Mortgage Insurance and United Guaranty Insurance) opposed the program, as did the American Bankers Association, the Community Home Lenders Association, the Independent Community Bankers of America, and America’s Credit Unions. The Mortgage Bankers Association reserved judgment, but its request that FHFA provide answers to eleven “outstanding questions, which were not addressed in the written proposal” conveyed that it would be a tough sell to get the MBA to approve Freddie’s request. No significant industry or trade group supported having Freddie finance second mortgages (although the Urban Institute did).
Given the public comments, I expect that FHFA will at some point either decline to allow Freddie’s initiative to proceed (citing the comments as the reason), or ask Freddie to try to allay industry concerns about it by responding to the MBA’s, and others’, questions about the proposal.

It's the judge who replies to a motion for JMOL Rule 50(b), but it would have triggered the 30-day count to reveal the attorneys' fat bonus (Attorneys' fees and costs, approximately 30% of $600 million for their con job: simply, for pretending to be an unsophisticated lawyer: cover-up of the Restriction on Capital Distributions and exceptions; "Cash Equity"; Etc.).
According to the judge's final judgment.
Then, the Defendant's reply, on July 16 2024.

Closing in on the corrupt litigants.
A surreal brief was filed yesterday as scheduled, in opposition to a 55-page long RENEWED motion for JMOL Rule 50(b) (it RENEWS the prior oral motion for JMOL Rule 50(a) that, supposedly, presented evidence argued during the jury trial. They don't match. Hello?)
In truth, the FHFA's Wall Street law firm filed a shadow appeal, talking about something judge Lamberth already sorted out and not about a jury issue: the claim travels with the shares. Judge Lamberth already said YES. So, a shadow appeal and the plaintiffs playing around, knowing that their attorneys have the fat bonus secured.
The DOJ and the S.E.C. said so.
Turning a district court into an Apoellate court. That is, in-house promotion, like occurs within FnF. The less people get involved in a conspiracy, the better.
Or Pershing last week, creating the figure of President to oversee the CEO, Ackman, but, it turns out, it was the CFO promoted to President.

Image with the 2019 UST Housing Reform Plan pursuant to a Presidential Memorandum.
Made in China, with a Government Explicit Guarantee on MBS that made the FHFA price the Commingled Securities unveiled in June 2022 at 50 bps (Source). Days later, 9.375 bps when they realized that it was all an attempt to supplant the real thing: a requirement to UST to put an end point for the conservatorships in the Dodd-Frank law, and a 3-option Privatized Housing Finance System revamp that came out as a result (a Report to Congress), a few days after the January 31, 2011 deadline, typical in the UST when it has a deadline from Congress.
Recommending guarantee fee increases and Basel framework for capital requirements in FnF to that end: Charter revoked scenario. That is, no "GSE" anymore. GSE means "UST backup of FnF" in the Charter Act, and thus, where "the existing government support of each GSE" comes from, and not from the SPSPA stated by Mnuchin in his UST Plan, which is a simple fact sheet in light of an authority in the Charter Act. We also see how Mnuchin initiated the current "GSE" movement, whereas the UST of 2011 called them by their name: Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
DeMarco began to work on it right away. Source.
Now, the Commingled Securities, with 9.373 bps, would facilitate the option 3 in the 2011 UST Privatized Housing Finance System Plan: a Government Catastrophic-Loss Reinsurance on MBS, triggered upon bankruptcy of the mortgage guarantor, although it still can be private reinsurance, for the options 1 and 2.
The fact that, in the 2019 UST Plan, the UST pointed out that Applicable law does not prescribe a specific end point for the conservatorship.
when it was the Dodd-Frank law the one that required it to put the end point (This is what lies behind Whalen's remark a few days ago: Post Dodd-Frank they must be 'private', meaning same capital standards as fully private banks as the UST required in 2011, for the release from conservatorship. His remark was considered a mistake, because he is a well-known FnF hater and he forgot that the plotters have to cover it up), is evidence of this attempt to cover up the original mandate, accompanied by the corrupt litigants in charge of covering up the Restriction on Capital Distributions, as it's the main tool (HERA Chapter: Prompt Corrective Action) to recapitalize private corporations: the Retained Earnings account that absorbs the future losses (today, stuck at an adjusted $-216B every quarter). CET1.
An adjusted $442B worth of regulatory capital is missing, but necessary for the rehabilitation of FnF under the new stringent capital requirements (ERCF).
The Supreme Court simply authorized a Separate Account plan, "beneficial to" (the correct words are: best interests of) FHFA: watching the stocks trading at rock bottom prices is worth a lot for them.

Something's Coming - Song from WestSideStory
Song by Jimmy Bryant
Could be, who knows?
There's somethin' due any day
I will know right away, soon as it shows
It may come cannonballin' down through the sky
Gleam in its eye, bright as a rose
Who knows? It's only just out of reach
Down the block, on a beach, under a tree
I got a feelin' there's a miracle due
Gonna come true, comin' to me
Could it be? Yes, it could
Somethin's comin', somethin' good, if I can wait
Somethin's comin', I don't know what it is
But it is gonna be great
With a click, with a shock
Phone'll jingle, door'll knock, open the latch
Somethin's comin', don't know when
But it's soon, catch the moon, one-handed catch
Around the corner
Or whistlin' down the river
Come on, deliver to me
Will it be? Yes, it will
Maybe just by holdin' still, it'll be there
Come on, somethin', come on in, don't be shy
Meet a guy, pull up a chair, the air is hummin'
And somethin' great is comin'
Who knows? It's only just out of reach
Down the block, on a beach, maybe tonight
Maybe tonight, maybe tonight
