Follow Up (III)

As expected, we were not the only ones impressed with Goldman's unprecedented efficiency yesterday. Here is what W.D. Cohan had to say in today's NYTimes (essential reading for all and especially the most religious of you believing in miracles).

In the meantime, Goldman's CFO D. Viniar said he’s “mystified by the interest investors and government officials have shown in the bank’s trading relationship with American International Group Inc". We wonder why. Children always flock the magicians after their shows trying to find out how they pulled their tricks...

its mind boggling that there is this HUUUUUGE fucking elephant in the room and everybody is pretending that they can't see it.
The financial results of GS are just perfect. They don't report a month in which they lost as much as they made in the next 3 months, and then they compare that quarter to last years. Did they hire Copperfield? I didn't see it in the news somewhere...
