Freddie Mac (FRE) currently price at 1.34 may move higher in sympathy with AIG American International Group, Inc. soon. FRE continues to be dogged by the housing depression and the government involvement or lack thereof.
However the economy is on the mend and there are some bright spots appear that may lift the shares of Freddie Mac FRE soon.
If you put the share prices of AIG and FRE right on top of each other you will see a general tendency towards symmetry on some of the big moves each stock has made over the last year. There appears to be a slight lag effect in the movement of FRE relative to AIG.
Significantly, AIG has just recently broken out north from a very long term downward sloping resistance line and what also appears to be a very large triangle formation. Similarly Freddie Mac FRE has also just done the same thing although it has not really had a breakout type move out of this triangle yet. To accomplish that it will need to trade and move over the 1.38 level which it may do early next week.
