Goldman Sachs (GS) appears to be in a strong position to benefit from a wave of mergers and IPOs predicted for the coming years. While some analysts express caution regarding the recent downgrades and the cyclical nature of its earnings, many experts are optimistic about the company's ability to capitalize on increased capital markets activity driven by a potential easing of regulations. Recent reviews highlighted a significant revenue beat, showing strong year-over-year growth across multiple sectors, suggesting robust business performance. Analysts also note the resilience of GS's share buyback strategy, albeit with concerns over consumer finance endeavors. The general sentiment leans towards the financial sector, indicating that GS remains a viable investment opportunity despite the broader economic challenges.

HOLD
Short it?

He's not a good trader. To paraphrase: "There are bull markets and bear markets, but at the end GS wins." We've seen that this quarter with respect to their trading profits. It's been a great way to play capital markets forever, and all the banks' capital markets divisions are doing well.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick May 17/24, Up 54%)

The capital markets banks are all performing really well. That tells you something about the rest of the market; if investors are focusing on these banks, then they must have a view that lots of deals will be done and that capital markets provide a good opportunity. He'd buy more.

BUY

Delivered a blow out quarter, top and bottom lines, thanks to their red-hot global banking and markets division. Investment banking is up 26% YOY. The return of M&A is a key driver. 

TOP PICK

Is perfectly positioned for the tailwinds under the Trump presidency. After April's tariffs, corporate boards have been sitting and waiting, reluctant to do deals, but a strong capital market will eventually happen. Pays a good dividend and are very well-capitalized.

(Analysts’ price target is $596.61)
WEAK BUY

Of the big banks, they are the most levered to investment banking, including IPOs. He bought it expecting an uptick in IPOs under Trump, but his tariffs have temporarily derailed that. The IPO revival should happen if tariffs don't return. This pulled back hard since mid-February because of those tariffs, down 35%.

BUY

A buy at 11.8X earnings.

SELL

If he were in charge, his share buyback zone would be between $360-450. Looking at the chart, you can see overhead resistance since the election; this shows up on so many stocks, and is more of a sell zone. See today's Educational Segment.

BUY

It reports Monday. As an investment bank, its business can be episodic, but he expects the CEO to deliver on the top and bottom lines--the top because of trading (their forte) and bottom because of, well, firing a bunch of people that they've been doing.

BUY

The US about to see a wave of mergers and IPOs and GS will benefit from that.

COMMENT
Downgraded today

The analyst who downgraded GS is saying nothing new, including a delay in the M&A cycle. The IPO market will likely emerge in second-half 2025. Also consider is defaults will rise? Lending growth slow or reverse? The overall economy slow down?

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Likes it. Financials should be one of the leaders coming out of the current environment, as they were before the recent volatility. Down ~22% from recent highs last month on recession concerns. 200-day MA seems to be support where you can buy. As Buffett says, "Be greedy when others are fearful."

One of the leaders in investment banking and wealth management. Will benefit from deregulation and potential increase of M&A activity.

BUY

At 13X earnings, considering earnings, capital markets outlook and interest rate forecasts, we think it still looks good.

STRONG BUY

Likes US financials. Likes its ability to really take advantage of increased M&A activity. See his Top Picks.

BUY ON WEAKNESS
GS vs. JPM

Likes them both, as well as others in the sector. Don't look at the chart and not buy because it's gone up so much and you've "missed" the price move. Instead, look at the fundamentals -- have earnings, cashflow, revenue growth kept up with the price? Or, look to how it's trading against historical valuations.

He added not so long ago. Excellent opportunity, mainly on capital markets side. Good economy, reduced regulation. Unlike other areas of the market, valuations in financials are not extended, so there's opportunity.

BUY

Sells at 13x PE, and is doing very well. A solid buy.
