Market Preview (Goldman Edition)

Goldman Sachs is the Chuck Norris of financial markets. They delivered a roundhouse kick with the release of earnings this morning.

The banking bigshot killed it, as expected. They boasted earnings per share of $4.93, a huge premium over the consensus forecast of $3.65.

Goldman execs sold $691 million in company stock since Lehman collapsed, but everyone else is buying. The stock is printing $149, up from $47 last fall. The stock surged 5% yesterday on a Meredith Whitney upgrade.

As always, the StockTwits community has much to say about Goldman, from the hysterical to the informative:


Indeed, the only thing Goldman (and Chuck Norris) can’t seem to do is become a trending topic on Twitter.
