Traders are buzzing over a fresh call from Meredith Whitney on Goldman Sachs (GS).

Though the stock is in the black, the company fell about a buck right off the news.

Specifically, she lowered her Q4 EPS estimate to $5.5 from $6.00 vs consensus of $5.41. And she lowered 2010 to $19.20 from $19.65 vs consensus of $18.25.

So interestingly, she's still above consensus but obviously, she still has the power to move markets.

Its seems if you get one guess right about stocks they treat you like your some kind of fortune teller. I’d say some shorting went on prier to the call.

She was the first Wall Street analyst to ring the bell on Citigroup a few years back. So far she has a perfect record on the financial industy’s performance since 2007.

And beside that, if you criticize her too much, look out for her husband to pay a call on you!! (hint: he used to work for the WWE)

Circumstantial call. Bad lighting, bad camera angle, bad timing.
