Sweet irony that it was a Goldman story that seems to have led to the fall in the stock market, not to mention Gold.

I hope PippedOff is enjoying this, holed up in Azkaban, Shangri-La, or wherever it is he is hiding himself.

Guys,

Du reckon Goldman traders would've shorted their own stock?! I mean, are they allowed to do this when they KNOW it's a profitable trade... *heheh*

Doug is great ... I made a loss shorting JPM should one short GS now ? It would make sense to take GS private indeed much sense.

@Catnip he made the prediction dec 09...I saved them as also think Kass is one of the best commentators on the street...Kass's prediction -

8. Goldman Sachs goes private. Goldman Sachs stock drops back to $125 to $130 a share, within $15 of the warrant exercise price that Warren Buffett received in Berkshire Hathaways (BRKA) late 2008 investment in Goldman Sachs. Sick of the unrelenting compensation outcry, government jawboning and associated populist pressures, Warren Buffett teams up with Goldman Sachs to take the investment firm private. The deal is completed by year-end.

The damage to the GS reputation and wall st. at large is far worse now than any fall in their share price - the wrong doings exposed are just the tip of the iceberg

Doug Kass predictions for 2010...GS return to a private partnership structure...doesn't seem so far fetched now

Ashraf, It's amazing what a difference a day makes - I thought when I threw in the towel something big had to happen and here we are - ratio now at 63. My guess is that this story has a few more days/weeks to play out. Surely the US public will now be more outraged than ever with Wall Street and will want a proper clamp down on investment banks - may be the Elliot Wave guys will have their day now.

why it's taken so long to expose GS and now is a matter for those in power
