“Goldman Sachs ... yesterday took it off their recommended list for reasons that made no sense whatsoever. This is as high a quality company as you can imagine. They did make some round-trip energy trades, there's no doubt, [but] they amounted to one quarter of one percent of their business. It had no effect on their profits. Energy trading is about 65 cents or about 30 percent of Duke's earnings. I would just buy Duke with my eyes closed at this point.”
Stephen Leeb
“It was a very strong quarter for Goldman, which was what I had expected. Their equity trading is what really carried the day, as I suspect it did for many Wall Street firms with good trading floors.”
Hal Schroeder
“Goldman had a strong quarter, Lehman had a good quarter, and that's what I would expect to see from anyone else on Wall Street who has a good trading operation. I expect to see Morgan Stanley do well, as well.”
“This acquisition highlights Goldman Sachs' strategy of expanding our electronic market-making capabilities,”
Henry Paulson
“There is no question about the fact that Goldman is getting a good deal, but it is totally warranted in these circumstances,”
James Gill
“It's tough not to like record results, but in the wake of what Goldman put out, they seem pedestrian. Goldman set the bar awfully high.”
Jeff Harte
“Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley are two stocks that I think are attractive here. Those stocks have been under pressure as interest rates have been rising. I think we may have seen the high in interest rates for a while, and I think that could help the whole sector.”
Patricia Chadwick
“You spoke with (one Goldman Sachs employee) and told him to say nothing and listen to your version of the story. You then told him you would be interested in calling Goldman Sachs witnesses to make sure they were in agreement with your story.”
John Hueston
“Goldman Sachs is the No. 1 banker in London, ... No. 1 banker in Europe in many businesses, and really has gone into China quite heavily.”
Lisa Endlich
“It would be difficult to sell it with their most recent period, which is a horrible result. Goldman Sachs is probably saying that this would be a tough story to tell on the road when you have a declining business, when the other investment banks are posting record numbers.”
