"GS are dem investment bankers. They want the economy to do as well over the next four years as George Soros."
Bingo!!! That is what I thought when I heard this on CNBC this AM. Goldman Sachs contibutes alot of money to the Rats.
The thing I can't believe is that the whole fricking stock and commodities market will believe one brokerage's house opinion with really no basis to back it up.
GS does have a good reputation, and there are tangible reasons to point to (Chinese demand booming), but that still doesn't mean that they're not motivated by political issues (helping Hill get elected in 08). These analysts are mostly guessing anyway. Did you see the earlier article today from the Telegraph about chimps doing as well picking stocks as British traders?
You can follow right now the increase of the price of oil commodities. The danger is when it becomes overvalued and then follows with a repeat of the dotcom bubble burst. Then the little people with 401Ks and pension funds will suffer.
