[quote=UCGal][quote=SD Realtor]Yeah looks like Goldman is shaking in their boots.[/quote]

I don’t know if they’re shaking in their boots – but they announced great earnings numbers today – and the stock is still down. On the analysts call they had their lead council discuss the case. If they weren’t concerned, why would they have a lawyer talk on their earnings call?

I almost bought some GS a week or so ago – with the attitude that if I couldn’t beat them, I’d try to piggyback some profits out of their gaming of the system… But decided it fell into the camp with a few other profitable stocks (RAI, WMT) that I just wouldn’t feel right about owning because of my very misguided sense of morals. In this case, it worked out. I was looking at it at $170ish – it bumped up to 190 while I was debating it, internally.

Before I get slammed – I fully recognize that I’ll never get rich in the market if I let morality get in the way of my investment choices. I’m ok with that.[/quote]

Dudette, you’re talking about getting into the markets??? I’m thinking about getting out of the markets….It’s getting too hot to handle for my blood. Serveral things are already at the top ranges, with several at years high.

Anyone want to guess if Yahoo pukes this afternoon?
