Well - I've seen some misses in my time.

But I ain't never seen an estimate of $3.94 earnings miss by $53.23 dollars.

Great scott !

Surprised ???

The adjusted loss may not be comparable as it might well have been calculated in a different way to First Call.
However, it's on my watch list although it's not moved hugely pre-market.

Agreed. I wouldn't trade it anyway - not with my stabilisers still on. Maybe when I'm on 2 wheels.

It does rather amaze that they didn't offer any updated guidance.

Makes me wonder if its not another VAR mishap.

who cares, aslong as AIG has the full faith and credit of the US treasury (and the fed lol) these comapnies could be bankrupt (they are anyway) and people would still buy them!

Perhaps Goldmans bonus fund needed a top up ?
