the anti-fraud missile is homing in on goldman sachs' j aron, more than likely, according to nephew, because while gs/ja know the rules from past experience and implementation, still sold a bunch of effectively multi-year commodity contracts not counter-signed by legal representatives of state-owned enterprises during second half of last year. chinese law dictates that all enterprise contracts must be counter-signed by company legal representative, usually its chairman, in order to be valid, and law also dictates that all commodity sale/purchase contracts (as opposed to framework agreements with annual price adjustment) cannot be longer than a year in duration. my guess is that goldman sachs and its employed minions, in their (i) desperation, and (ii) by their greed, roped in some important marks. now the markers are going bad. let us watch & brief ... should be another good show if as above. and let us see whether the slippery tool that is obama move to try to protect gs per obama handlers' dictates. some hints of examples in same flavor chinaeconomicreview.com online.wsj.com mpettis.com i note that gs does not have its man in the chinese justice ministry - could soon enough prove to be a bummer i wonder how many of gs-china competitors are actively aiding the take down of gs from behind the curtains i suspect some gs-china employees got some words from THE party to the effect that cooperation means redemption
