[quote="Guest"]"... [b]The Times said the government is considering a plan that would place the companies into conservatorship, citing people briefed about the plan. This would mean the shares would be worth little or nothing, and the losses on home loans they own or guarantee — half of all U.S. mortgages — would be paid by taxpayers.[/b] ..." http://www.usatoday.com/money/economy/housing/2008-07-10-freddie-fannie_N.htm[/quote]

Napoli said in a note to clients. <br /> <br />Napoli lowered his target on Freddie to $9 from $28 and on Fannie to $15 from $30. He kept "Neutral" ratings on both companies, citing credit concerns. <br /> <br />There does not appear to be a change in fundamentals at either company, he said, just a change in sentiment. <br />... <br /><a href="http://www.cnbc.com/id/25636058" target="_blank">http://www.cnbc.com/id/25636058</a></span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> </table>
