Goldman sachs reported to have bet against the Gulf the day before the rig blew up

I just read this story

Goldman Sachs Reveals it Shorted Gulf of Mexico

What should we take from this ?

Is it possible they has foreknowledge of something about to happen ?

or is this guy Borrowitz just a comedian ?

"Suck it, fishies and birdies!"
this guy is a real ass-oil.
one day before hand a little odd.
i'm curious to see if this develops into more.

Wow. That almost has to be foreknowledge.

Or such a huge coincidence that it will be hard to explain away.

I think it's a joke.,, I'm not sure if I like all these jokes about Goldman, it's almost an attempt to take the sting out of the crimes they have committed. It's no laughing matter that these scumbags have been destroying the economies of the world.

I'm thinking its just a joke story guys ... sorry

Notice at the top of the page it is filed under the tag: "Comedy".
This is not a 2nd line.

"One oil rig goes down and we're going to be rolling in dough," Mr. Tourre wrote in one email. "Suck it, fishies and birdies!"

The news about Goldman's bet against the Gulf comes on the heels of embarrassing revelations that the firm had taken a short position on Lindsay Lohan's acting career.

lol.

Does ATS have a comedy section ? .... I think we need one

What. You can bet against a body of water? How does that work? Can I bet against a blue sky? Can I bet on how many birds will not die on my roof today? How in the hell do you bet on something like oil spilling into a body of water?

And another thing... it seems just a bit too eerie that this explosion occured on that fateful satanic holiday of April 20th. When these things just seem to happen... shootings, explosions and generally a lot of fire and death.. And now... the name Goldman comes into the picture.. I think I saw another big name involved in this as well.. Haliburton.. yea well probably nothin.. I still want to know.. how can I bet on the chemtrails and who pays this off? Now how will they make money from the dead fish and birds.. How nice... Is it just me or is this really kinda f'd up? Ciao - RDDS

edit: PS: It may be just a joke, but to me it's not a bit funny..
