FNM, FRE to be delisted

'兩房'將'被退市'股價暴跌

The Federal Housing Finance Agency, the federal regulator overseeing Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, ordered the mortgage finance giants Wednesday to delist their shares from the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). The delisting of the mortgage firms' stocks was triggered after Fannie's share price fell below $1 over 30 days, violating NYSE listing requirements. Both firms' stock prices plunged by nearly 40% after the announcement.

當(dāng)?shù)貢r間16日，美聯(lián)邦住房金融局發(fā)表聲明，要求其監(jiān)管的美國兩大抵押貸款巨頭房利美與房地美從紐約證交所退市。由于房利美在紐交所的股價已超過30個交易日低于每股1美元，未達(dá)最低交易標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，因此聯(lián)邦住房金融局決定對兩家公司發(fā)出退市通知。退市消息一出，原本已低得可憐的"兩房"股價再暴跌約四成。
