He certainly is dancing for his dinner.

On the one hand, he is selling, and then he is warning. GS can’t be sued easily.

I have never seen him dance this way.

“We’ll get through this eventually”, versus “We haven’t had a crisis recently”.

His better clients will be with him, sidestepping the poo. He may not be CEO, but I’d bet he still has clients.
