The investment banker Greg Smith, departing in umbrage or disillusion from Goldman Sachs, reveals that it is customary there to refer to some of their clients as “muppets”. This suggests that they are regarded as persons of no consequence, sheep for the shearing, if not lambs for the slaughter. The Muppet Corporation is highly offended, and there is, reportedly, talk of legal action, Muppet being a registered trade name.
