Freddie Mac has announced their 4th straight quarterly loss. The actual results are about 4 times worse than what analysts were expecting (that last bit I heard on the radio, not in the article).
They're touted as vital to our economy,  yet they seem like they're in death throes. What do you think the future holds?

I voted for : I think we're looking at total financial meltdown of our economy.  My reasons defy simple explanation, but I am convinced that it has been deliberately planned with the goal of subduing Americans economically to where they will willingly accept further loss of self government.

I agree with lundie and I also cannot explain all my extremely deep thoughts on this forum.

Joking about the deep thoughts. imslow.gif

But I still agree. thumbsup.gif

Oooh, I could come up with all sorts of conspiracy theories about someone who works at a bank predicting severe financial stability.
But in all reality, Coco probably has no special inside information, and is basing her thoughts on the same info available to us all.
