telegraph.co.uk
July 20, 2012

‘Long-term greedy” was the phrase that Sidney Weinberg, Goldman Sachs’s legendary managing partner from the 1930s to the 1960s, used to describe the American investment bank’s overarching strategy. Such a pious mission statement from a corporate titan would make a modern audience balk. However the phrase neatly encapsulates the way that Goldman Sachs has operated over the past 80 years, a period in which it has risen from [...]

June 17, 2012

The hacks at the State House are salivating at the prospect of charging you a penny for every mile you drive your car in Massachusetts.

This is a tax increase so monstrous that it would make M. Stanley Dukakis blush. We’re talking $555 million — the first year.

It’s an idea so terrible it can’t be killed. Like a vampire, it keeps coming back to life, and the stake [...]

BOXOFFICE SNEAK: ‘DARK SHADOWS’ CREEPS OUT OF GATE

 

FRIDAY 4:30 PM UPDATE: Remember that these reports from my sources are still early. Warner Bros’ vampire sendup of the vintage TV series Dark Shadowsbegan its release weekend by making a so-so $550K during midnight screenings overnight. But the re-teaming of Johnny Depp and Tim Burton is a disappointment. It isn’t drawing blood at the box office by only creeping out of the gate with about $10M today for at best a $32M weekend unless there’s [...]

Goldman Sachs delays £418m tax bill

There’s tax avoidance, tax evasion and, according to Goldman Sachs boss Lord Blankfein, now there’s tax deferral.

Lord Blankfein’s investment bank received a tax bill of £422.3m for 2011 but has put off paying 99pc of it until next year.

Just to put that in context that’s 38pc [...]

It’s expensive to argue with Goldman Sachs, the bank that Matt Taibbi so famously described as “a great vampire squid wrapped around the face of humanity.” That’s what a former Goldman computer programmer has found, and he’s asking for cash.
