(closed on 01/25/10)
While the recent headlines surrounding Goldman are terrible we believe the earnings for Goldman have been lowered enough that they will beat and get a pop as they're the best of breed in the sector. NY Times reports for years, Wall Street whispered that Goldman Sachs profited handsomely by trading ahead of — or even against — its own clients. On Tuesday, a Goldman executive made an unusual admission that, in some cases, the rumors were true. In an e-mail message to select clients, Thomas Mazarakis, the head of Goldman's fundamental strategies group, acknowledged that his unit often prov...

That's Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger, perhaps the most successful investors in five generations.
Berkshire Hathaway, a textile mill, was Buffett's first turn-around play. He was successful and sta...

Let's do the math on our friends Goldman Sucks. Point 1: Our dolty Gov't handed GS $13 bn in cash by saving AIG, a company with whom Goldman foolishly traded. Point 2: GS is supposedly looking to pay out $11 bn in bonuses this year. Hmmmm. Since the taxpayer will likely lose ALL of it's AIG investment (see also CIT $2.3 bn taxpayer loss, maybe as early as this weekend), the taxpayer essentially paid Goldman Sucks to make bad bets. We rewarded stupid decisions with CASH! Point 3: You are welcome Warren Buffett. For my $13 bn donation to Goldman Sucks's financings in the pas...

Feels almost too good to be true. Once again, did we dodge the more than 3% to 5% decline? Once again have we put the trouble behind us? Did we have just enough October scare to inoculate?...

Real bargain stock #4: Goldman Sachs (GS)
GS
-15.87%
in

Filed under: Goldman Sachs Group (GS), Stocks to Buy What can you say about this crown jewel of brokerage and investment banks that hasn't already been said?
Goldman Sachs (NYSE: GS) is, by far, the most prestigious, as well as the most politically-connected, bank on Wall Street. Its success over both the fat years and the lean years has been difficult to ignore. So it's no wonder then that shares of this iconic financial giant are up nearly 100% over the past five years, while stocks that comprise the Dow Jones Financial Services index were down 11% over those same five years. <><>Continue reading>>...

Although the road ahead for Goldman will be a bumpy one for some time to come, the firm is well positioned to ride out the current market jitters and rebound once the overall economy begins to pick up in the next 9 to 12 months. Goldman has a strong balance sheet and as long as they can maintain their revenues from an investment banking perspective, they will ultimately prevail as one of the strongest banks in the next 12 months. In addition, Goldman has average just about a 9% return over the last 10 years which should continue through the next ten years. Short term the stock will fluct...

Deadly sin stock #1: Goldman Sachs (GS)

+8.25%
in
277 days
Filed under: Goldman Sachs Group (GS), Stocks to Buy Hey, Gordon Gecko of Wall Street fame stated that, "greed is good." He was so compelling that those words became an anthem for an entire generation. And enthusiasm for greed is what drives the partners at Wall Street leader, Goldman Sachs (NYSE: GS).
The best part of greed for GS is that there are no consequences. We learned that with the bailout of Wall Street during the financial credit crisis. No eternal damnation here. In fact, former Treasury Secretary Paulson was a GS alum. It must be nice to have friends in high places. <>It's no risk >...

Credit deleveraging will continue for awhile. As assets continue to decline, Goldman will continue posting new losses. Their hubris in assuming they don't need government capital injections when they're leveraged 32x in the middle of a deleveraging cycle is astounding. Keynes once wrote markets can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent. No new IPO's. No acquisitions. No new underwriting. Where are the earnings? Where is the pipeline? <> If it's not government injections, it will most definitely be private injections, which is ultimately dilutive to existing sha>...

Filed under: Earnings reports, Bad news, Newsletters, Goldman Sachs Group (GS), Stocks to Sell, Financial Crisis Investment banking star, Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (NYSE: GS), has many analysts scratching their heads. The turmoil in the financial sector, a weak economy and its conversion to a bank holding company result in a mixture that is difficult to value. As a result of the uncertainty, GS shares have been trading with a high degree of volatility. Yesterday, a huge piece of uncertainty was removed from the equation. <>With some expecting the company to post a massive loss in excess of $5 b>...
