I disagree. Most finance news is very short sighted, living minute to minute... Personally I feel that Goldman Sachs has a very strong position in the years ahead; They don't even need lobbyists anymore

"Analysts wonder why Mr. Paulson hasn’t hired more individuals from other banks to limit the appearance that the Treasury Department has become a de facto Goldman division."

Don't worry, TARP funds will ensure their executives all receive bonuses this year.

Bonuses are down 70% and top executives have given up theirs.

Maybe they just will receive the money anyway. They just won't call it a "bonus".

I don't know about Goldman, but Morgan Stanley is reducing total comp (base+bonus) by 10-30% for the people who still have a job.
