What will happen to shareholders after a Fannie and Freddie bailout?

Question

If the treasury department bails out fannie and freddie what are the potential repercussions to existing shareholders?

Answer 1

f***y/Freddie shareholders may not experience any more changes than they are already experiencing.  A lot will depend on how shareholders react to any government bailout. If shareholders panic and start selling then the price of shares will go down until the price of these stocks stabilize.  

Answer 2

they took a gambol ~basically they lost~like all other bets ~they lose all or part of their original stake.

if they moan ask them how much of the dividend's and bonuses they took from the excessive and inflated  interest rates charged to borrowers(which by virtue of not being paid back caused this problem) they are willing to pay back.

so why as taxpayers should anyone have to bail a "gambler" out.

Answer 3

Their equity has been wiped out

It would be the same as a bankruptcy filing

In this case there is no value left
