The article doesn't give much information... as in when and how Goldman bought into this company. It could very easily be a PE/VC type investment that was made when the company's portfolio of drugs had an uncertain future at best. In any case, it doesn't mean anything. They've likely got several dozen other bio-tech companies they invested in that they'd probably have to give away.

Just another example of the media reporting something as if it is news.

Banking isn't where the money is. Entrepreneurship is the real gold mine!

I wouldn't say so, it's all an expected value equation: While a decent amount of entrepreneurs succeed and make the headlines, the overwhelming majority don't, whereas with banking, everyone's making money of some sort.
