'Goldfinger' makes comeback with launch of $5bn hedge fund

Mark McGoldrick, a former Goldman Sachs trader whose track record earned him the nickname 'Goldfinger' during his career with the Wall Street bank, is making a comeback with a new $5bn (£2.8bn) fund.

McGoldrick, who famously earned $70m a year ($200,000 a day), but resigned because it was not enough, has asked his old firm to raise money for a super hedge fund that will concentrate on special situations.
