The Today Show is reporting that places like Goldman Sachs (there's that name again!) and Citigroup are getting more H1N1 (swine flu) shots for their employees than some hospitals in NYC! You can't even begin to make this stuff up. The Today Show gets like a bunch of housewives all over the country watching right? Christ, you don't want them pissed off at you. The media really doesn't like these banks does it? I don't either. For perhaps different reasons.
Speaking of Goldman, I shorted their shares at $171.50. It's higher than that now. Which, if you are counting at home, is not a good thing. But as they used to say in the streets, "Ask me DO I care?!?!" I do not. I have made my bed. I now will sleep in it. I actually am kinda glad since my whole "shorting program" isn't done yet and I will have a chance perhaps tomorrow to short some others at higher levels. I say perhaps because there's a "little" number tomorrow at 8:30 a.m. eastern time called "the unemployment report". It has a tendency to make all kinds of markets a bit volatile. I love volatility. Or as some of my gold buying Indian friends say, "wolatility". Enjoy.
