“Ryan sold stock in Wachovia and Citigroup on the same day he attended a confidential meeting where top level officials disclosed the sector was heading for a deep crisis. Not long after the meeting, Wachovia’s and Citigroup’s share prices fell. Most interesting, though, Ryan bought shares that day in Goldman Sachs. Goldman stock climbed by more than 40% from its low on the 18th to its closing price on the 19th. Just 4 days later Warren Buffett plowed billions into the company. On October 3, 2008, Ryan voted for TARP, which resulted in even more money being pumped into Goldman. Goldman Sachs is now among his largest financial supporters.”
