Geoffrey Raymond is behind Goldman Sachs this afternoon, and would like you to stop by and jot some notes down on his latest masterpiece, “The Screaming Pope.” Not sure where you’ll find room on the already heavily annotated canvas, but we’re confident you’ll find a place to make your mark. Among the best so far: “I’ll show you a liquidity injection,” “Aaron was here,” and “It really grinds my gears when people tack the word ‘science’ on things in an attempt to legitimize them. Like, for instance, social science. Or Christian Science.”

Amazing.
Who’s being liquidated? Anyone know? That’s what it feels like today – big liquidation. All the hedge fund commodities darlings are being killed. Killed. POT down 21? M/A down big?
@3- citadel?
not only the hedges-margin calls are really hitting the bigger retail.
@4, have heard rumors of Atticus…
@5 weren’t the retail investors wiped out last week? Or do you think a lot of retail levered up this week?
This really feels like a big fund liquidating – the same set of names being methodically driven lower, big selling in oil and outperformance by the banks.
The MOC’s might be ugly if they want to finish by the close.
@1 oh snap!
My poker investments are folding!
I think my lactose intolerance is back. Braaaaapppppp! Anybody want a perm? Just buy me an ice cream cone…
I still don’t understand, with everything that has gone down, why BSC and Leh, had to go?
Anyone wanna take bets on when we’ll start challenging last week’s lows?
I met a friend for lunch over by GS today and a couple of what looked like first years were shouting at Raymond. I hope that wasn’t any of you kids.

BRUSSELS, Belgium (Reuters)—French President Nicolas Sarkozy called at a European Union summit on Wednesday [Oct. 15] for a clampdown on hedge funds and offshore centers as part of efforts to better regulate the world financial system.
“I would propose a simple principle, that no financial institution should escape regulation and supervision,” he said according to a copy of a speech to the E.U. summit in Brussels. “I am thinking, for example, of the regulation that we must apply to the rating agencies, and of the necessary supervision of hedge funds…. We must also work to eliminate the grey areas that undermine our efforts at coordination, in this case the offshore centers,” he said.

This is getting repetitive and derivative. At least when Francis Bacon ripped Velazquez, he did it well.

@1 wow leet speak.@15, STFU. Goldman Sachs owns this country (you just don’t know it yet). Also, why hasn’t anyone used white out around Paulson’s mouth? That stuff is always funny. Maybe I should do that when I leave the building today.
- that guy from Goldman Sachs
Nice link to Paulson’s animal fettish.
Best line is “When he handles creatures such as raptors, snakes, and spiders, he seems completely unfazed.”
If Paulson’s career in government doesn’t work out he can definitely get a job at Jurassic Park, solid.
@31…,thats the thing about Christian Scientists,,,love animals, hate people..
