"Goldman - which made billions of dollars last year by shorting the subprime mortgage bonds that its bankers were pumping out in volume - seems to have timed its latest calls right. Both the WaMu and Fannie-Freddie short calls have made investors money, as shares in all three companies have since fallen.
Even so, one hedge fund portfolio manager who spoke on condition of anonymity, describes the practice of recommending that clients short sell a stock as "playing with fire." Leave it to Goldman to do so without getting burned - at least not yet. "
"Kessler, the former Morgan Stanley analyst, notes that Goldman Sachs has more freedom than other Wall Street firms to take such an aggressive stance. The WaMu recommendation by Goldman's mortgage finance specialist, James Fotheringham, he notes, was also "a statement about the fact that his clients are hedge funds, as opposed to mutual funds." Hedge funds almost always seek to be long one asset and short a similar one against it - and Fotheringham last week advised clients to buy WaMu debt while shorting its stock."
It is not just about GS, it is also about their clients who comfortably naked shorted allegedly while GS was the facilitator of naked shorting allegedly. Who were these clients? That could make the actions of some apparently perverse.

Context my friend context...
Don't forget the basis of GS complaint are events in 2008 the consideration of which has not been closed by the court in this particular context of naked short selling. If one wants to conjecture, guess further analyze or say something about the case, it is inevitable to be somewhat retrograde.
If visiting the past is too painful for you TD, I would try to limit such posting. But I cannot guarantee you elimination of all past references, if in my opinion it is relevant.

Ps. Chris0155 lies Dir den Artikel durch und überdenke Deine Sichtweise über das Vorgehen von SG !(...nix in der Hand ;))))))))))))))))))
ich denke eher hier ist zu viel was an den Tag kommen könnte und damit wird es ein Spiel mit dem Feuer - für alle Beteiligten so hoch wie die ganze Sache angesiedelt ist.
Abgesehen davon, müssen mMn. einfach gewisse Prozeduren abgearbeitet sein bevor irgend etwas zum Vorschein kommen kann, besser gesagt DARF!
(noch besser gar nix zum Vorschein kommt - Schweigegeld heißt hier das Zauberwort und darauf muss man halt warten können !
