You think Russia selling some Fannie Mae bonds could hurt our economy? How exactly would that work?
I had mentioned this about Greenspan for over ten years, and no one corrected me prior to today.
What did you mention? His imaginary loan to Goldman in the 90s?
We could have been friends if you had been more polite
If only you knew anything about economics or finance, for instance what an arb is, I'm sure we could have had useful discussions.
it is clear you have other purposes,

and I doubt I’ll ever enjoy reading your posts in the future.
I don't know how I'll carry on.
“If only you knew anything about economics or finance, for instance what an arb is, I’m sure we could have had useful discussions.”
I think you are the one having difficulty comprehending, as usual. I’m sure you know the word: “Arbitrageurs are short-term investors driven only by economic motives”. I said Putin was seeking the equivalent of arbs. Although I agree that the “hostile takeover” element doesn’t fit with lawyeristic precision — the meaning is pretty clear for people who think.
Further, I said from the outset this is not my element — I research scandals, and in this case, I had politely posted with clear qualifiers to let people know it was not quotable information but rather something to discuss, based largely on memory.
You are really good at lobbing insults. I confess I let you prod me to a level of foolishness that I hadn’t reached in a long time. So you thought, “Ah, here’s an easy punching bag — no proof.”
This isn’t a court of law. When I first posted on this thread, I was only seeking to piece information. You, on the other hand, have an agenda. I foolishly “took the bait”. I thought maybe your prodding would goad me to a little more research, but you are wasting my time more than anything else.
“Trying to dispel ignorance on FR.”
Yeah, right. You’re trying to suppress something that bothers you — clearly. If you were trying to dispell ignorance, you wouldn’t be so insulting.
“I don’t know how I’ll carry on.”
I expected that kind of remark from a cross examiner. Congrats. You passed “badgering the witness” with flying colors. It’s been years since I’ve been so aggravated with someone.
