According to this
article, Goldman has suffered a 10 day trading loss. This, after last quarter's shockingly perfect trading, raking in as much as $25 per day.Er, now that I think about it, I'm not sure why I'm blogging this. I doubt anyone here would even be interested in a news tidbit like this.
But a lot of people DO guy Goldman stocks simply because of how good they are, and yet, it still pays to diversify because news articles like this reminds all of us that even the best... can't be perfect.
