GS Changes to Goldman's Business Model will impact stock in short term

Due to the fact that Goldman Sachs is now a regulated national bank, I believe this is going to have a short term negative effect on their stock.  GS was able to attain stock prices over $200 a share due to their ability to be highly leveraged as an overall firm.  Becoming a bank is not going to afford them the ability to be as leveraged as they once were.  It will take some time to ...

   By   energycurve   68%   on 10/07/08
   Filed under Technology  >  Computer Services 		   Comment

Particularly with the MSFT deal a long ago memory, and no longer deserving of a potential acquisition premium, why does it continue to trade so richly valued?
