The firm’s shares tumbled 13 percent and financial stocks slumped. Goldman Sachs created and sold CDOs linked to subprime mortgages in early 2007, as the U.S. housing market faltered, without disclosing that hedge fund Paulson & Co. helped pick the underlying securities and bet against the vehicles, the Securities and Exchange Commission said today. Billionaire John Paulson’s firm earned $1 billion on the trade and wasn’t accused of wrongdoing. The SEC also sued Fabrice Tourre, a Goldman Sachs vice president who helped create the CDOs, known as Abacus. Goldman Sachs charged with fraud by SEC Fri, Apr 16 2010 By Jonathan Stempel and Steve Eder NEW YORK (Reuters) - Goldman Sachs Group Inc was charged with fraud by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission over its marketing of a subprime mortgage product, igniting a battle between Wall Street's most powerful bank and the nation's top securities regulator. The civil lawsuit is the biggest crisis in years for a company that faced criticism over its pay and business practices after emerging from the global financial meltdown as Wall Street's most influential bank. It may also make it more difficult for the industry to beat back calls for reform as lawmakers in Washington debate an overhaul of financial regulations. Goldman called the lawsuit "completely unfounded," adding, "We did not structure a portfolio that was designed to lose money."

Wolfrum For the past decade or so, the acronym SEC has better stood for “Sitting Enjoying Coffee” rather than “Securities Exchange Commission.” After all, one need only mention the name “Bernie Madoff” to turn your average SEC employee into a puddle of apologetic goo. Today, however, the SEC announced it is going after a big fish. Perhaps the biggest, as the SEC filed fraud charges against Goldman Sachs, accusing the mega-financial outfit of selling investments that they had secretly planned to have fail. From The Huffington Post: tite. "We are not a fiduciary," he said. The case also involves John Paulson, a hedge fund investor whose firm Paulson & Co made billions of dollars by betting the nation's housing market would crash. This included an estimated $1 billion from the transaction detailed in the lawsuit, which the SEC said cost other investors more than $1 billion. Paulson was not charged. Fabrice Tourre, a Goldman vice president whom the SEC said was mainly responsible for creating the questionable mortgage product, known as ABACUS, was charged with fraud. Goldman shares slid 12.8 percent on Friday, closing down $23.57 at $160.70 on the New York Stock Exchange. The decline wiped out more than $12 billion of market value, and trading volume topped 100 million shares, Reuters data show. SEC Takes On Goldman Sachs – A Sea Change Or A Big Fish To Calm Waters?
