smartmoney.com Goldman Sachs' 130 years as a private partnership have finally come to an end. The IPO of the last private major investment bank opened at 76, a 43% gain from its $53 offering price. The company offered 69 million shares, which represent a 14.5% stake in the company. Goldman's $3.7 billion IPO is second only to Conoco's (COC) $4 billion offering last autumn. In the midst of the Goldman IPO frenzy, investors are guessing which companies the elite investment bank could try to acquire with its new-found capital. Online brokerages such as ETrade Group (EGRP), Ameritrade (AMTD) and Waterhouse Securities -- a division of Toronto-Dominion Bank (TD)* that filed for its own IPO on Friday -- are among the names mentioned.
