Potential ohne ENDE?
Sehr instruktiv; aber mir drängt sich der Vergleich mit
der Restquotenregelung in WAR II auf, wie bei IG-Farben,
Commerzbank, usw. Eine Abwicklung wird immer Unver-
teiltes, bzw. gar später zu vereinnahmende Finanzmittel
beinhalten. Unsre US-Freunde trennen sich nicht
von FNM und FRE, da hängt zu viel dran!

Ob wir irgendwann 5$ sehen werden?
Ich aber lasse auf jeden Fall meine Gewinne (einen Teil) laufen.

Optimistisch sieht Buffett nach eigenen Worten die Aussichten auf dem US-Immobilienmarkt. Eine Erholung des Sektors werde wahrscheinlich innerhalb eines Jahres beginnen. Im Hinblick auf Dividendenzahlungen hob Buffett die Berkshire-Beteiligungen an der Bank Wells Fargo und Coca-Cola hervor.
Decon
Das ist die einzige denkbare Gefahr, die gegen ein Investment spricht.
Natürlich macht Buffet mit seinen Aussagen eine Menge Politik und versucht Sicherheit zu vermitteln......................allerdings ist er auch seinen Aktionären verpflichtet und die nimmt er so ernst wie sonst kaum jemand. Also: Ich steh auf Buffet !!
Frannie wird ähnlich holprig wie CoBa, Ambac, A.I.G., RBS, HRS(!), Lloyds und BOI aus dem Liegen in die Hocke und dann zum Stehen kommen. Und dann werden sie laufen.............
Warte es nur ab !!
Seriöse Dienste, wie "ZT", berichteten früher über die beiden
Hypothekenfinanzierer und stellten "nach Lehman" $ 1,50,
bzw. ca. $ 2,00 als längerfristig erreichbar dar. Heute hört
man nichts mehr darüber seitens solcher Dienste,
aus gutem Grund. Gleichwohl, auch andere sehen sich
um (PULTE) und müssen vorerst warten. Das ist auch
ganz normal. Daytrader sollten sich in den Papieren
nicht bewegen, auch bei den jetzt schon höheren Stückzahlen
die börsentäglich gehandelt werden. Es ist immer noch keine
ausreichende Nachfrage nach den Papieren.
Das könnte sich allerdings ändern, denn es würde sich für
andere Marktteilnehmer, die bislang nicht interessiert waren,
um ein Megainvest handeln. Aus Kostengründen sollten
Privatanleger darauf achten, dass die Nebenkosten des
Erwerbs "untergehen", will sagen, kauft 30 - 50 tausend
Stück (via Frankfurt/ Stuttgart) , dann macht auch derkleine
Kurswert keinen Ärger!
Remarks Prepared for Delivery

President and Chief Executive Officer, Fannie Mae
at the
Five Star Government Forum
Washington, DC
March 8, 2011
Good afternoon. It’s great to see many long-time industry colleagues, partners and government leaders
who are committed to rebuilding the housing market. I’m delighted to be part of today’s forum, and I
want to thank Ed Delgado for inviting me to share a few thoughts with you.
I had the opportunity to work shoulder-to-shoulder with Ed in the early days of the crisis. In fact, I started
to see Ed so often that I wondered whether he had an office at Treasury? He told me he didn’t, but I’m
still not sure about that. But seriously, I do appreciate Ed’s leadership during those difficult days and it is
my pleasure to be here today.
First, I will focus on what Fannie Mae is doing today to serve the market and then I will comment briefly
on housing finance reform.
As I look out across this group, I know everyone here is committed to get the housing sector back on
track. We need to ensure that the right policies are in place to drive needed changes. Those changes
should foster a housing sector that is stronger and sustainable over the long term.
For our part, Fannie Mae is taking steps now to build a stronger foundation for housing in our country. It
is a foundation built on what I call a “new realism”… a return to sustainable lending … a reexamination
of what constitutes sensible risk… and a longer-term view.
Still, the housing market is facing strong headwinds. While progress is being made, and the employment
outlook is starting to improve, many families are still struggling to make their mortgage payments.
Fannie Mae recently released an update to our national survey of consumer attitudes about housing. A
few key takeaways:
First, Americans are more confident about the stability of home prices – nearly 80 percent believe prices
will hold steady or increase over the next 12 months.
Second, while most Americans still think that owning a home makes more sense than renting (84%), they
are less confident than they used to be that it’s a safe investment (64%).
2
And finally, Americans are also less optimistic about their personal finances than a year ago, and
therefore, more willing to rent. In fact, more current renters plan to continue to rent – rather than buy –
their next home.
Overall, the survey demonstrates that Americans have become more realistic about home ownership.
Turning to our expectations of the U.S. economy, we believe it will move from a fragile recovery to a
steadier expansion in 2011. We also expect slightly stronger growth in housing activity particularly in the
second half of this year. Still, we are only cautiously optimistic, as we are still facing a number of
challenges in the housing market.
Make no mistake. We have a lot of work ahead of us. I know everyone in this room is very aware of the
human cost of this crisis to our families, and our communities.
Creating solutions requires practical, effective and long-term changes in our industry. We have a
responsibility to get this right and at Fannie Mae, we take our responsibilities very seriously. I want to
share five actions we are taking to strengthen the market today and into the future.
First: We must keep liquidity flowing.
We all know that the financial crisis of 2008 resulted in private investors exiting the mortgage market.
The federal government provided Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac with substantial support, which allowed
us to continue buying mortgages, keep funds flowing and hold down mortgage rates. All of this was
crucial, in the context of the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression.
As the leading supplier of housing funds in America, Fannie Mae has delivered nearly $1.5 trillion in
mortgage liquidity since 2009. But leaving aside, for a moment, that it’s a very big number – what does it
mean for the people we serve?
It means that Fannie Mae and our lending partners have helped more than one million families buy homes
and more than four million homeowners refinance into a lower-cost, safer mortgage. At the peak of the
housing market in 2005, Fannie Mae was about 20 percent of the market. Today, we provide almost 40
percent of single family and about 35 percent of multifamily funding that is flowing to market.
Let me move to our second action – which is helping distressed homeowners.
Even though we’ve seen some strengthening in the market over the last year, millions of homeowners still
struggle to keep their homes. Everyone loses when families are faced with a foreclosure. The cost to
homeowners, their neighborhoods, the market, and to our company, is severe.
So, Fannie Mae has built one of the largest foreclosure-prevention operations in America. In 2010 alone,
we helped more than a half-million families avoid foreclosure through modifications or workouts.
3
To reach families in need, we have implemented innovative outreach and education programs – both
virtual and brick-and-mortar solutions. In hard-hit communities across America, we have established 6
Fannie Mae Mortgage Help Centers (and we are scheduled to open 3 more next month), where families
work one-on-one with counselors to help resolve their mortgage. And our online educational initiative –
Know Your Options.com – is a program designed to empower homeowners with the information they
need to make good decisions for their families.
Our efforts to assist distressed homeowners are unprecedented in scope. They not only help families, they
stabilize communities and enable Fannie Mae to limit losses, which benefits taxpayers. Unfortunately,
foreclosure is still a reality in many situations. And when that is the case, we do our best to help families
transition into other housing with dignity. We’re also protecting property values. Whether it’s initiatives
such as First Look or Home Path, our team is focused on preserving value and preserving neighborhoods.
Our third action is to encourage sustainable lending.
At Fannie Mae, we are striving to help our industry address the problems of the past and position itself for
a sustainable future. For example, we strengthened lending standards to help ensure that working
Americans buy homes they can afford over the long-term. We are emphasizing long-term, fixed-rate
mortgages – loans that protect homeowners from interest-rate swings. We are requiring better credit
quality, documentation and property appraisals. We are creating tools for lenders to understand the
quality of a loan before they sell it to Fannie Mae – helping the lenders and Fannie Mae to reduce future
risks.
And, we’re committed to developing a better model for servicing mortgages. When the mortgage crisis
hit, we turned to our servicers to help a huge volume of borrowers avoid losing their homes. But the
existing servicing model provided little incentive for this different and greater responsibility. To solve
this problem, we're working with our regulator, FHFA, Freddie Mac, FHA and Ginnie Mae to develop a
new servicing model – one that will support servicing non-performing loans, improve service for
borrowers, and reduce the financial risk for servicers. And let me acknowledge Ted Tozer’s leadership on
this important effort.
From our loan quality initiative to rethinking the servicing model, we are committed to building a better
system now, which will drive a new realism in housing and serve us well in the future.
Our fourth action is support for rental housing.
As demographics change, demand for quality, affordable rental housing will continue to grow. According
to the Harvard Joint Center for Housing Studies, the number of households in America is expected to
surge over the next decade... up to 1.4 million new households per year. Immigration is the key driver of
the growth and substantially affects rental housing. Most of the growth in households will come from
new Americans, who tend to rent first.

Fannie Mae is a leading provider of capital to the rental housing market. In conjunction with our
multifamily lenders and housing partners, Fannie Mae provided nearly $17 billion in debt financing for
the rental housing market in 2010. We also continue our commitment to affordable rental housing.
Almost 90 percent of the units we finance are affordable to families earning at or below the area median
income for their communities. In fact, last year we financed 213,000 units to families at or below 80
percent average median income and 53,000 units to families at or below 50 percent of the average median
income.
Finally, our fifth action is building a better company.
We are taking important steps to begin restoring America’s trust in Fannie Mae.
We are working to improve performance. Loans acquired since 2009 compose over 40 percent of our
book of business, and we expect them to be profitable over their lifecycle. As we continue to build a
strong, profitable new book of business, our foreclosure prevention efforts reduce losses on our legacy
book of business.
We are providing the market with needed liquidity.
We are setting standards for sustainable lending.
And, we are driving operational discipline to strengthen our company’s capabilities; reduce risk; and
provide responsible stewardship of the resources we’ve been provided. We have a laser focus on
delivering on our immense responsibilities today and creating value for tomorrow. We still have work to
do, but we are making measurable progress.
Now, it’s clear the mortgage market will change in the years ahead. Many proposals have been put
forward – including some by the people in this room. I’m sure you can understand that Fannie Mae is not
taking a position for or against any specific proposal. We do continue to contribute information and
insight as it is helpful to the process. And, as someone who has dedicated most of my career to housing, I
care deeply about the outcomes of reform – what it will mean for families, communities and our country
as a whole.
In the months ahead, it is important that policy makers carefully consider several questions. Questions
such as:
Should we continue providing liquidity for the 30-year fixed-rate, pre-payable mortgage?
Do we value having a deep and liquid securities market, which enables homeowners to lock in a
mortgage rate when they are approved for a home loan?
5
Do we want to provide a secondary market that is open to all markets and all customers, and at all
times?
Do we want to provide for a balanced housing policy that serves multifamily and single-family
needs?
And, how do we ensure that our system provides low- and moderate-income families from all
communities the same access to mortgage products as higher-income Americans?
The answers to these questions will have a lasting impact on the future of housing finance. We expect
vigorous debate on all sides. The resolution, I hope, will support a U.S. housing system that is sustainable
over the long term.
In closing, this is a pivotal time. At Fannie Mae, we commit to working diligently with you as our
company, our industry and our country embrace a new realism and plan for a sustainable future for
housing in America.
Thank you.
Finanzadler, es wird dauern, aber das wusste doch jeder.
Bei den jetzt erreichten Kursen (./. 0,02 gerade heute wieder)
kann man sich über Nachkäufe ernsthaft Gedanken machen.
Die Sache zieht sich hin (s. auch PULTE, hier hat man
bereits eine höhere Nachfrage nach Familienheimen).
Mag sein, dass die Personen mit "besserem Einkommen", wie
zu lesen, FNM beflügeln, wie auch den Zwilling: FRE.
Jedenfalls werden beide Unternehmen so schnell nicht
ihre Tätigkeiten aufgeben; oder ist doch was dran, wenn
von Übertragungen auf andere Finanzierer die Rede ist ?
Ne was ist das eine erbärmliche Aktie.....Mensch macht den Laden dicht..das hat das Leiden ein Ende.
Hallo, gib es in dem Forum hier nichts mehr zu schreiben? Seid nem Monat kein Eintrag mehr? Was ist los?
Dafür bleiben hier Verwässerung und andere Kapitalschnitte aussen vor. Wo bekommt man das heute schon? Die Kollegen von der CoBa wissen etwas davon zu erzählen !!
0,50$ im Visier, noch heute?
