cheh ... though i bought some at 101 lol .. before our WB announced his buying. .

Goldman to me has good fundamentals ..

The best brains = good fundamentals.

If the brains cannot solve problems . then no other fundamentals would work..

Goldman chief sought tie-up talks with Citi

By Henny Sender in Tokyo and Francesco Guerrera in New York

Published: October 26 2008 22:32 | Last updated: October 26 2008 22:32

Lloyd Blankfein, Goldman Sachs’ chief executive, called Vikram Pandit, his Citigroup counterpart, last month to discuss a merger, in a dramatic example of the secret manoeuvring that preceded the government bail-out of the financial sector.

The call, which was made at the tentative suggestion of the regulatory authorities or at least with their blessing, was made shortly after Goldman had won surprise approval to convert itself from a securities firm into a commercial bank on September 21, according to several people familiar with the events.

They added that the conversation was brief as Mr Pandit rejected the proposal at once.

A deal would have been structured as a Citi takeover of Goldman. In spite of the slide in Citi’s shares, its market value around the time of Mr Blankfein’s call was $108bn, roughly double Goldman’s capitalisation.

I anticipate a GS+WFC merger. A west coast strong regional bank, where Silicon Valley is generating immense wealth, merging with a east coast investment powerhouseouse would create an unbeatable combination.

WB has investments in both :lol:

I would think that their cultures are very diff. WFC is very risk averse, while GS takes on huge risk all the time.
