S&P downgrades US mortgage giants Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac
That's a move that is long, long overdue.
Fannie and Freddie better get out of the real estate market before they start losing money.
I hear real estate may go down in price.
Can you imagine what would happen if we had a real estate crash.
The stock market would crash and then America wouldn't be able to pay its debts.
I can't even fathom such a thing.
