Dear CIGAs,
Fanny and Freddie bonds represent 4.1 trillion dollars of issued value now being considered by the marketplace to be four rating places too high. It will be interesting to see what the defrocked bond rating companies do now.
The government guarantee on these bonds is implied, but not set in cement. This could blow the TIC report all to hell which in turn would blow the US dollar all to hell.
For starters, that is good for $1200 in gold.
Here is more kudos for our beloved Geeks and their unregulated OTC derivative crimes.
Jim
