Feeding the Vampire Squid

Calculated Risk has a 1 November 2009 post about Vampire Squid's (VS) bets on the US housing crash and how it sold clients mortgage-backed securities while expecting they would fall in value. Here's a link: http://www.calculatedriskblog.com/2009/11/report-on-goldmans-bets-on-housing.html. Is anyone surprised VS stuck its blood funnel into its own clients? Here are some of my VS posts relevant to its conduct, 16 December 2007, 22 February 2009 and 29 May 2009:
