Is Goldman hypocritical on Trump?

As most of you know GS and the other banks were very much against trump before he won. Now that he has won they seem to really like the guy and their stock has gone through the roof. Does anyone else see a problem with this?

They were going with a known quantity in Hillary who would be definitely pro-Wall street over Trump who rose to prominence using populist rhetoric. Of course, in the months leading up to the election, the donations from bank lobbyists showed Wall Streeters coalescing around him. Goldman always picks the winner. Smart on their part.
