Todays comments brought to you by the Citi Department of Redundancy Department
In October 2007 I became the most famous analyst in the world for initiating a sell call on this bank.

Google translation: “Allow me to expose my colon once again. The ramification inflicted on the incision placed within the Fallopian cavities serves to be holistic taken from the Latin word ‘jalapeno.’”
I think this is his best line yet.
I remember the days when the world wasn’t global.

It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return, but what is the most painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let the person know how you feel.
He speaks like Greg writes
aspiration = gettin my fuckin zen garden.

“There are known knowns. These are thing we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say, there are things that we know we don’t know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we don’t know we don’t know.”

I feel good about our strategic clarity and aspirations, but not so good that we will actually acheive anything.
He looks so global in that picture
@16 fuck off! but yes.

We are the most Banky Bank, in the whole Banking Industry. We Bank, and we Bank hard. Sometimes our Banking isn’t so good. Sometimes it Banks. But in the end, we’ll be the ones laughing, all the way to the Bank.
Yes, well, when you head back to Mumbai and actually get the rising middle class in Nariman Point to pay 35 bounced check fees, then I’ll believe in that strategy.
Until then, bottoms up on the yellow stuff.
@20 ftw
Translation: We may be fumbling about now, but soon enough we’ll be buying GS out from under GoldScrot and I’ll be hosting my conference calls from my Zen Garden.

There was an awkward pause on the phone. Blankfein had assumed that the Fed had pre-arranged the call. “Well, I’m calling you because at least some people in the world might be thinking that combining our firms would be a good idea,” he said. After another few moments of uncomfortable silence Pandit finally replied, “I want you to know I’m flattered by this call.”
Blankfein now began to wonder if Pandit was putting him on. “Well, Vikram,” he said briskly, “I’m not calling with any flattery towards you in mind.”
“becomes more global every day.”
Like more spherical?
Count Vikula: “We are the world’s shittiest bank in a world that becomes more shitty every day.”
@28 never gets old.
Comment #1 auto translated from English to Greek then back to English. I think this ought to clear it up:
Numeration Vikula: “We are the world overaller bank in a world where he becomes overaller daily.”
He looks like he has a FUPA in that pic.
Strategery!

I dunno – I think the fact that
a) HSBC is definitely the most “global bank” (if for no other reason than the fact that the UK-based Hong Kong Shanghai Bank Corp splits functional management across two-and-a-half countries (and yes, idiots, I am only counting the city-state of hong kong as half a country))
and
b) the world isn’t getting more global (google: trade protectionism)
and
c) that shittygroup is broke without its nearly broke governmental backer
mean that this guy really is a douché
He is trying to say he has a new speech writer named Greg
@37 touché
-vikz
Limitless paper in a paperless world.
A Mormon, a Jew, and an Indian walked into a bar…
serious question: what the hell is “strategic clarity”?
@37 MARK KLEIN, M.D.?
Think of me as a global rapist, everyone gets fucked.
Didn’t someone just get some kinda big prize for having aspirations?
He is trying to say, “Great googily moogily, I am the new hotness. So many womens now will want to make sex with me. Great googily googily moogily.”
@43
#37 is way, way too cogent to be MKMD
Oh happy day! I just broke 80! It’s sooooo good to be me.

What he’s really thinking is that he’s going to dress up as a fuzzy litle koala for Halloween.
