    Carney,
    No posts on the Goldman Global Alpha rumor (publicly denied at 4:30pm)?
    No posts on the nearly $10bn in write downs expected from Merrill next week?
    How about the rumored mandatory 6am Monday morning meeting for Merrill traders?
    Nada? Zip? Zilch?
    You’d think The Hunt was tomorrow in New Jersey… oh wait.
    As for the other comments in this thread? You are all a bunch of pussies.
    bitches . . .
