Goldman Gaming AIG Today

Quote from EPrado:

That whole HF/Flashing trades thing works well when there is low volatility (like this summer), but when the volatility shoots up, those programs don't work nearly as well and have zero influence on the market (Not that they have any real influence now).

Are you engaged in HF trading ? Did you ever execute HF trading methodologies ?

Agreed. I am waiting for GS 176.00 USD +.

And I am shorting Deutsche Bank, because Ackermann had a simple message a few days ago :

Ackermann Says Bad Loans Are ‘Next Wave’ of Crisis

Rising delinquencies among consumer and corporate borrowers are the “next wave” of the financial crisis and may affect banks that have avoided losses so far, said Deutsche Bank AG Chief Executive Officer Josef Ackermann.

“This crisis has consisted of a series of earthquakes, with changing epicenters,” Ackermann said late yesterday at an event in Zurich. “Bad loans are the next wave. Banks that have fared relatively well so far will also be affected by this.”

He was also on TV last week and during an interview he implied that there would be yet another "bubble" in equities because of Helicopter Ben and Company and that the end of the world would be pushed out yet another 5 years. 1998, 2003, 2008, ???

Looks like "Mr. Gloom & Doom" is hedging himself once again...

Landis, to what extend do you not subscribe to his basic view that a major systemic crisis as we have endured over the last year on a historical base does not get solved by the actions taken by governments and central banks so far but in reality the very steps they have taken will in the end fail in sustaining what is unsustainable simply because of the laws of fysics?

I would like to notice Faber himself contrary to most 'doomers' did not pass out on the possibility of profiting on the chances provided by those same central banks and governments with for instance advising to buy C at 1$ a share to see it rally to 4,8$ and to find it at 3,8$ today which is a nice profit no doubt.
 
Quote from sekyst1974:

If you didnt think Goldman was gaming AIG, then today is proof in the pudding. Just look at your screens and watch it scream higher. Watching the Tudor video demonstrates how the market is highly manipulated by a few big players like Goldman trading massive amounts of stock while everyone else trys to grab at the crumbs.

AIG surprisingly swung to a profit and showed less write-downs as expected.

16.5% of the FLOAT was sold short.
What else is it that you need to know???
 
Wasn't there some positive profit news from Radian? They didn't have to pay out on some of their insurance contracts, 'cause they were deemed invalid. Isn't that what's been pushing all the insurers up and squeezing the shorts?
