Goldman Sachs charged by SEC with misreporting and drives down financials

The U.S. SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) has charged Goldman Sachs & Co (GS) and one of its vice presidents with misstating and omitting key facts about a financial product related to subprime mortgages. Goldman shares are currently 20 dollars to $164, and the statement has had a significant impact on the overall market with the DOW industrials currently down 60 at 11,090 and FTSE 100 down 56 at 5,767.


Shorts on the FTSE and DOW placed this morning were closed with this fall.
