| August 06, 2008 | | Spread bets and CFDs on individual equities | Spread betting and contracts for differences on stocks like Freddie Mac should consider that earnings reports can say a lot about how a company is doing.

It appears that recent efforts to help Freddie Mac, and its fellow government sponsored enterprise, Fannie Mae, aren't causing a great deal of change.
