It doesnt make sense to me. There are lots of posts with pins that have less evidence and are less important. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 832190 United States 06/01/2010 10:22 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Let's look at it realisticaly. They sold 4 million shares somewhere between Jan 1 and Mar 31. The highest the stock was trading was $63. After the news went public, the stock still was trading over $50 for days. If they know this is a hopeless disaster, they have an out for the rest of their shares now. You will know next month if they sold more. At best, selling those shares netted GS an extra $50 million....which isn't chump change, but these guys made $21 Billion a year. That's 0.25% of their yearly take. In middleclass speak......If you made $40,000 a year salary, would you risk everything you have for $100? These F'rs are evil douchebags......but stock is child's play. They wouldn't risk something that in the open when all they have to do is go on the Swaps market and start buying up crazy amounts of insurance on BP debt. They can make 50x on their money, and it is unregulated. It would be careless and stupid for that company to make a premeditated stock play before one of the biggest disasters in history. That being said.....if a 800 lb gorilla with herpes and AIDS ran amock through their NYC offices and raped each executive and trader individually.....I would applaud. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 989187so this is uss liberty part 2? 911 part three. Although this started before 911 part two ( the nuking of Us cities ) this will take much longer to play out. Does this now mean a 757 flown by Antartica sponsered tearorists will be whamming into the Goldmon Sucks building in the morning to destroy the evidence? |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 986296 United States 06/01/2010 11:47 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | i thought that was a hoax when i heard about that last month..cause the article then said they were shorting Lindsey Lohan as well LOL.. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 989589hah, I noticed that as well, embarrassing for guy who posted it... the huffingtonpost piece, was a satire piece (but not totally a hoax) _However_ , there were massive shorts made before the rig went down. here is a snippet from a thread: --snip-- A. True Ott, Ph.D., wrote the following to me last night: I have confirmed that there were indeed numerous "shorts" placed on TransOcean stock just days before the "problem". Was it Goldman Sachs? That is yet to be conclusively determined (there is indeed a SEC investigation ongoing) -- but labeling something as "satire" is a lawyer's shrewd trick to keep from being sued for slander -- even if it is all true. Moreover, there were massive shorts placed literally seconds after the news hit the airwaves. Who would dare to quote the actual e-mails from "Fabulous Fab", unless the writer would post them as a "satire" - especially after what happened to the Wall Street Journal writers who dared expose the 9-11 short sales involving Goldman Sachs. (They were assigned to Afghanistan, and had fatal "accidents" there.) Dr. Ott has subsequently confirmed from two sources that Goldman Sachs was indeed in on the shorts being placed on TransOcean stock. (See Email from Don Nicoloff documenting Goldman Sachs short puts on TransOcean stock.) And he has confirmed that the comedian was aware of that as well. --end snip-- many truths are told in jest, eh? |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 989647why only sell half when "you know" what's going to happen? Don't think the point is, as much as they were on it, but they had information surrounding it. Reinforcing the notion that they walk on the same golf courses as those responsible. I'd guess to hedge(hah) their bets on their info, almost 50% is significant. Also, the speculation on the mass shorts immediately prior to event. |
