Dropping The Goldman Sachs Bomb Tomorrow?

Goldman's first quarterly loss to be announced tomorrow? Only time will tell. It's certainly looking that way.

http://www.cnbc.com/id/28240805

But if even GS posts a loss, then what will happen? Will the world potentially come to an end? Will the Sun explode? Will the Dow collapse? Will Lloyd Blankfein reveal himself to be a full-blooded elf?

 

Masturbating to girls instead of Goldman? How can you even think of saying something so absurd?

 

Investors main concern will be on how Goldman incorporate their investment banking arm and commercial banking arm (last rumor was they are targeting a regional bank).

Are they able to transform into a bank like JPMorgan Chase or another ineffective bank like Citibank (fail to close the Wachovia deal).

Maybe Warren Buffet should influence Goldman Sachs and Wells Fargo to merge together.

Maybe Warren Buffet should influence Goldman Sachs and Wells Fargo to merge together.

This would be impossible. GS + Wachovia + Wells Fargo = >10% market share, which is illegal unless new legislation went into effect changing that rule. Plus the lack of prestige you've insinuated isn't something that I can imagine GS would be interested in.

 

The Street was relieved with the results. MS is up next; any predictions? Above or below consensus?
