Is Goldman Making New Enemies?

It's not just regulators in Washington DC or protesters on the streets of New York who have it out for Goldman Sachs.

Hedge fund managers and hedge fund investors are also leveling harsh criticisms of the bank.

"They've lost their way, fallen for the trap of short term profits, and abandoning clients," one hedge fund manager told CNBC Sr. Editor John Carney.

And quite a few are saying that the SEC's case against Goldman has confirmed what they had come to suspect.

What’s that, exactly?

We wouldn’t dream of stealing someone else’s thunder!

What's the trade?

I'm long Goldman calls, reveals Karen Finerman. Despite the negative chatter, I don't think it hurts business terribly. Quite frankly where else are people are going to go?

Goldman is now trading around 1.1 times book, adds Guy Adami. With the stock around $136 it's starting to get interesting.
