Impressive feat. I guess that stat arb and whatnot is easier now because people are no longer leveraged to move the world and the margins can be a bit tighter. I would be interested to see loss days compared to a quarter of total gain/loss.

Not hard to get zero trading loss if the government bails you out when you lose... ;-)

Pavlovian anti-GS hysteria at its best...

The joke is no longer amusing. Everyone is attacking GS, from utterly clueless uneducated morons to utterly devious dumb politicians with a private agenda. By attacking GS in such a gratuitous manner, one reminds others of such tragicomedy.
