[quote=UCGal]Back to the original topic…
I’m watching the GS Senate hearings right now. I don’t know who looks more ridiculous – politicians trying to seem outraged that GS isn’t a charitable institution (see McCain’s last few questions.) Or Goldman acting like they’re a victim. Truly amazing to watch from an entertainment point of view.[/quote]This is what’s called fatal brand damage.
When Goldman wants to sell a CDO, who wants to buy it?
when Goldman wants to buy a Default Swap who wants to sell it to them.
When you think Goldman has rigged the tables, who wants to sit down with them?

Very little is gonna get done, except we’re paying a lot of those senators to look good on tv, which even that is subjective.

Lead underwriters of IPO’s and M&A…It’s not their only business you know…Especially IF the financial markets (ever turn around) and co’s feel like starting to gobble up other institutions. I’d say their M&A departments are non-insignificant.
These institutions really don’t work like others. I’d say they wouldn’t give a flying f* what main street thinks about them if Congress wasn’t creating so much flack for them.
