Goldman Sachs SEC Investigation and Market Logic

The SEC is investigating Goldman Sachs for its role in selling mortgage-backed securities while simultaneously betting against them. The hosts argue that Goldman's actions were not illegal, but rather a standard practice of hedging investments. They credit Goldman for recognizing the housing bubble early after attending seminars by trader John Paulson, unlike other firms that collapsed.
