GS

Unhedged-Fund

Absolutely not. These fuckers from JPM, GS etc go with the wind. A month ago they said sell everything, oil shock, stock market overvalued, software sucks blablabla, new SPX target is 6800. Now they say 8000, earnings are driving the market and fuck oil

peglegpetey8

If GS hits $400, I’ll eat your ass soap. Actually I’ll just do it now. Please send me your ass soap as soon as you can.

So... GS?

Crazy_Donkies

GS = AMZN, GOOG Likely fine: META, but I'm wondering about forward guidance given AI weakness and just ads. MSFT: Not touching software. Copilot IS being adopted by a lot of companies but I'm doubting actual utility, I think Azure is stalling and will guide weak because of changed OpenAI arrangement, and more.

AMadWalrus

I worked in investment banking in a top group at GS/MS and am pretty involved in r/financialcareers. Some of the most horrendous AI takes are things I've seen here. Two weeks ago I got downvoted for saying "we don't know how AI is going to progress but anyone who says for certain that they know how it will go is guessing" while the person I was responding to that said "AI is trash and won't ever replace people, have you seen the latest models" got upvoted. Guy clearly has never used Claude and even the most high end PE jobs are finding things like Claude useful, so unless the dude is a NASA rocket scientist, bro was completely coping about his 100% replaceable job. I never post threads and after that I had to ask what was up with the horrendous AI takes on this subreddit and 90% of comments were agreeing since the people the thread was about knew not to post, but then someone derailed the thread with some non-sensical AI comment which took most of the discussion away and had the most upvotes while my thread itself was 60% downvoted. Its clear the anti-AI people were lurking knowing not to comment cause they were being specifically called out. All of this to say, its clear that there is a hardcore anti-AI view on this subreddit, moreso than typical on Reddit. To answer you question, whether or not AI is going to be the end-all-be-all is TBD but people in finance are using it to make themselves better and you're doing a disservice if you aren't.

Lead banks on SpaceX’s IPO: - GS - JPM - MS These guys will be exhorting retail to buy stocks now. Stocks are a *screaming buy!*

ToSeeAgainAgainAgain

> The heavy BB6 is possibly why second stage didn't reach orbit That's made up bs right there, everybody that has done a little research knows New Glenn can carry 6-8 of ASTS satellites, and Dave Limp himself already recognized it was a failure on their part: >Early data suggest that on our second GS2 burn, one of the BE-3U engines didn’t produce sufficient thrust to reach our target orbit. [Source](https://x.com/davill/status/2046283237887218141) Why are you like this?

FuckingJPMAlgos

# Market crashes one time and they created "The Big Short". Market keeps going up literally forever and nobody makes "The Big Long". Pretty sure GS, MS and JPM allowed them to use their names knowing that 10yrs from now retards will keep shorting and they make Billions selling puts to the dumb money people.

Feels like something written by GS disinformation agent before -20% BEAR MARKET.

Litterman from GS explained why retail should sell tail risk and why institutions should hedge it: [https://rpc.cfainstitute.org/research/multimedia/2013/who-should-hedge-tail-risk](https://rpc.cfainstitute.org/research/multimedia/2013/who-should-hedge-tail-risk)

the original iphone wasnt really that impresive - no app store, no camera. it wasnt that great really and it wasnt hard to imagine nokia or bb innovating enough to push apple back - but they failed to do so before the 3GS which is when people outside the US started to pay attention to the iphone.

Jumpy_Nose863

Not sure who GS is? However look at what WB does, that's the way...Cash is king in the macro and geopolitical event were in now. Always have powder to deploy...

gizamo

All public-facing analysts publish after taking their positions, including JPM, GS, etc. Your comment is either ignorant of that process or is intentionally disingenuous. I disagree with your entire 2nd paragraph. It's clear that you don't actually follow his work. > Anyone making such forecasts cannot be trusted. Jfc.

gizamo

I have, and do. Your description is utter nonsense to those of us who actually pay attention. He's not some panic peddler like Citron or something. He's just a good analyst who is candid about his research and conclusions, much more akin to a JPM or GS analyst.

GoZukkYourself

CTAs have played a major role in this rally according to GS https://preview.redd.it/8hl9pqj56tvg1.png?width=804&format=png&auto=webp&s=4ec92c94593e01d93692c512af9071d7059d115a

Wowmuchrya

Off to a good start. JPM GS TSM Netflix all beat and dropped lol

Rare-ish_Birb

Like, when GS, JPM, MS all report record trading revenues, in the billions (the fcking billions, with a 'B'), I can't help thinkng they all just stealing it from me and you.... Party on WSB Also: SPY 700p 04/24

RandomC6

Its funny how brokers like JPM, GS etc switched to bullish on April 8 after already being up +8% from lows. Just gotta play the narrative I guess, so who cares. One week prior they said more escalation and ground troops is the most likely case. Basically everyone was saying ground troops haha.

hv876

GS is selling CDS on private credit, ala 2008. Who is Michael Burry of Blue Owl bubble?

Specialist_Exam_8433

Stocks are so pumped up that no matter how good earnings they are dump anyways. GS, JPM, ASML all dumped originally on earnings (then recovered later). Makes me wonder if we are just gonna dump hard this earnings season.

Specialist_Exam_8433

Everything has been dumping on earnings. GS, JPM, ASML. They all bounced after but initially dumped.

Specialist_Exam_8433

We're going to dump on earnings this time. GS, JPM both dumped despite big beats AND in the midst of the greatest 2 week bull runs in history. If that level of euphoria isn't enough then idk. Earnings will be sell the news.

mixtape312

Most brutal short squeeze of all time. Easy when you have an infinite money account funded by the Fed, JPM, and GS.

IvoryTowerResident

i mean the data is GS prime brokerage. Id say its reliable. Volume on this rally have been low but whether that is bullish or bearish seems to be up for debate

SlartibartfastMcGee

GS beat yesterday morning so that’s maybe not the greatest prediction I have ever heard.

AMadWalrus

I mean it’s certainly overvalued but you wouldn’t use a DCF to try to value SpaceX, for a laundry list of reasons I don’t feel like typing out. Source: was an investment banker at GS/MS

softboiledjadepotato

wait wait wait... so far we're 0-2 on bank earnings (GS, FBK), and market maintaining its boner for the next... some of the clowniest sh\*t ever

hv876

We are living in a world where Oil is over $100. Something that is a curve, but called Strait, is closed. Then US Navy has a blockade. China threatened US. GS traders didn’t make as much money. And the mofo in WH is shit positing on video giving $100 tips to DoorDash drivers. Please tell me this is a simulation.

Upset-Motor-2602

Tucked away in the results is the nugget that GS is setting aside $300M for non-accruals or bad loans. Private credit is showing cracks, but not at panic levels yet.

gentlesandwich

GS posted record profits again. At 17 p/e. Stock went down after earnings. Any chance this huge earnings week fails to move the needle?

Aware_Secret_8910

GS reported good earnings and went down 2.5%

PurpleReign123

Banks are working to rush out three humongous IPOs this year, ie - SpaceX; - OpenAI; and - Anthropic And guess which are the banks with lead roles in these giant IPOs? No prizes: **JPM, MS & GS!!!** Ladies and Gentlemen…. *Stocks are good buys now! We need you to buy, buy, buy … till we tell you goodbye*

limes_huh

Inverse GS at all times

ImAnonymous135

You regards have no idea what is coming, has anyone actually read the GS report? The report is overshadowing a big concern related to the carry trade and the BOJ rate hike. If you include the Iran war and rise of energy there is a storm coming

Jealous_Archer_4522

My GS calls in shambles. #fukt

ChampionshipOdd947

So no one cares then about GS missing badly on FICC, signaling problems in the MBS sector again? Okay

Brawmethius

Just look at institutions (GS as of today for example) reporting their trading desks, derivative products have taken over security markets. When your daily risk of expiration exceeds any future risk, you can't only look forward 1DTE.

MLBBGuideWriter

nah its pretty dumb, earnings coming up, upgraded to a $170 and $250 PT from BA and GS. even if it corrects downwards it wont be for long

ManBearPig_1983

I would really like GS at 850 for selfish reasons

95Daphne

Plus half the reason for the futures move for the Dow specifically is not even Iran related. I was racking my brain a bit as the futures split had me confused after I got to work, but figured out that GS (a holding of mine) reported and was dumped. Even session lows last night did not equate to we are going to see a move lower accelerate now.

GS should thanks us all for filling their derivatives trading desk pockets ☝️🤓

AerieZealousideal330

No GS Noooooo! My calls!!!

GS.. wow.. all that trading revenue and down 4 percent.. mergers and acquisitions portion must be zero with this supposed war going on..

AusConsoleGamesLFG

Goldman beat revenue and beat EPS expectation by 19%, YOY quarter 25% increase on revenue...surely this red is just pre market until open/until the earnings call at 9:30? Does this kind of thing happen often with GS? Tf

Specialist_Exam_8433

JPM is going to suffer the same fate as GS on earnings and dump tmrw morning. Dimon's hawkish commentary on the war will tank the markets, 🥭 will panic and announce the 🌮 after hours on Tuesday.

ImAnonymous135

GS crashing the DOW Someone better go check on Bondi

AusConsoleGamesLFG

GS was a massive beat? surely just pre market red as usual these days then goes bigly green at open

GS earnings not too hot

SlartibartfastMcGee

Fuck it, picked up GS ahead of earnings. I’ll let you know if it was a good idea in about 3 hours.

Majestic-Bedroom6783

Come to think of it, today could not be a better day for a complete market meltdown. Go on then, fuck it all to smithereens. I WOULD PAY MONEY FOR THE MARKET TO TANK AND DRAG GS EARNINGS DOWN WITH IT. Fuck em...GS = PEDO SUPPORTERS.

The only people trading on Sunday nights are the interns are GS and MS

GS earnings predictions Monday morning? You holding calls or puts?

Puzzleheaded-Pain657

Albertsons Puts - Food industry in it’s entirety is sideways J&J Puts - BAC Calls - any bank not impacted by the private credit deal especially GS (I don’t have the $ to buy calls or I would) will see an uptick. Progressive insiders took a massive dump probably bad news coming up Idk 🤷🏻‍♂️ my guess is these will all go opposite of what I jus said 😅

maeynor

Should never have dropped in the first place. Like 15% of the world’s oil goes through there. The oil move has been overstated this whole time. The reality is AI is still expanding growth and companies with fantastic earnings q1 got absolutely whacked. We’ve been oversold and Goldman has been calling it for weeks. I only listen to GS, JPM, and Ms. nobody else is worth paying attention to. Retail saw max flows out last week and max inflows this week after 7 straight up days. Buyers are already late

Majestic-Bedroom6783

Pedo fucktard muz buy first then can post shit to pump. No buy, pump wut fuck? So look at BIG MONEH....big moneh buy...YOU FUCKING PILE IN! Then together you gangbang the fuck out of the GS / Citadel cucks. NOW GO LOOK AT NEEVEEDAA!

AMadWalrus

What are your sources? Based off of my search, the 40% unemployment for 25 and under is in India, not the US. Second, I was in IB in NYC at GS/MS and read WSO on occasion and have heard no mention of shrinking BB class sizes. Are you from India and referring to back office roles at BBs?

BedRiddenWizard

Lmao important infrastructure for oil production has been blown up. It can't even be rebuilt in that time. Genuinely how is production supposef to go back to prewar levels if some prewar infrastructure is now rubble. GS boys are smoking crack.

PresidentRevrac

It’ll probably be GS/MS/JPM/Citi/BofA

sNeKbIt99

Always amazes me when GS upgrades something... like NFLX... opens up high then dumps all day. They got retail BTB.

Scared-Signature-452

GS should worry about their own damn stock prices

Tommyd023

GS says SP could hit 5400 if oil remains high, which would be a 22% fall from Janurary highs.

jmaun1

Costco is solid all day. I dont like the banks other than GS.

ikosuave

This is genuinely solid work. Reading 98 10-Ks in a weekend is the kind of grind most people talk about but never actually do. The banks showing higher exposure than oil companies makes more sense when you think about what they actually do. MS, C, and GS have trading desks with direct exposure to every geopolitical event through derivatives, currency swaps, and counterparty risk. They're not just worried about their own operations, they're worried about every client position that could blow up. Oil companies have concentrated risk in specific regions. Banks have diffuse risk everywhere. Few things I'd push back on or add: The raw mention count can be misleading. Legal teams at big banks are paranoid by design, they'll mention every conceivable risk to avoid shareholder lawsuits. Chevron mentioning oil risk 188 times is stating the obvious. MS mentioning geopolitical risk 221 times might actually signal they see something in their trading flow. Would be interesting to see the delta between the two most recent 10-Ks rather than just the absolute numbers. If a company went from 50 tariff mentions to 150, that tells you more than a company that's always had 200. Also worth checking if any of these companies increased their risk disclosures around specific regions. Iran mentions specifically vs general "Middle East" language would be telling. What's your methodology for the exposure score? Weighted by category or just normalized mention count?

XG32

banks have been leading the decline for awhile now, and energy are usually the last ones to rally in a cycle, in line with past tops, we are almost there. I've been buying GS and JPM on every rally and will be giving MS a closer look, thanks.

Philthatman

Pretty stuff, might pop by the GS boutique just to take a look this following week haha

Philthatman

Love that Aquis, clean GS too. Long way to go for me to consider a GS. Maybe SLGH005?

Trotskyite9

That was Bill Ackman unloading his positions after telling all of us retail investors that it's the greatest time in history to buy low priced equities. The man talks his book more than GS. He's no dummy, just a proven liar.

AMadWalrus

How about another piece of advice and we can double the fee? You don't look at P/E ratios for non-profitable companies, you value them in other ways. I used to be an investment banker at GS/MS, so each comment I leave is worth about ~$500 for my time. I'll send an invoice in the mail.

HairlessBandicoot

I remember when this sub was championing LVMH as a value stock. I’m a woman and knew it wasn’t going to happen despite the GS report. Oh, and that operating leverage from marketing and branding spend would cut them on the way down. Anyways look where we are today. I told guys who asked me about Lulu not to go in - it was obvious already in late 2025 that the sales meant that stuff wasn’t selling, and you can have top line growth alongside deteriorating margins. Things can look cheap on a P/E basis but that E can really shrink. Something I don’t think you caught: Lulu relied heavily on synthetics. Most people don’t realise / don’t remember from middle / high school chemistry class that a lot of synthetic fibres used in clothing come from naphtha. And naphtha is a distillate of…. Oil. So they risk their margins being really really fcked. In addition to that, all consumer is cyclical. If you don’t have a drop of marketing blood in you, would won’t be able to sense when that trend turns

DistributionBroad173

Every Goldman Sachs mutual fund historically underperforms its benchmark. You know who gets rich at GS? The partners, not their fund holders.

Patient-District-199

I agree, GS said sustained high oil would lead to 540 by year end, expect bounce from previous April high 610-590

Bossanova72

If you did any research on this topic after the dust settled you know that the big banks realized they were the ones with the majority of the counterparty risk. So what did they do: They greedily took the fees from Burry one the one hand and then slow played Burry to buy time to get out of their positions on the other hand. I think GS was the worst on both sides, but still coming out of it better off due to the bail outs. The funds they couldn’t liquidate were marked to 0 as losses and then the bailouts came. Except for Lehman. The sad reality of all of this BS is the big EU banks didn’t have as much knowledge of the CDSs (time asymmetry) and they needed larger bailouts. Yes, the American taxpayer bailed out many large EU banks. In these scenarios the last to sell end up with the worst positions and no buyers left in the market.

le_Derpinder

Plus the right hand and left hand of the "banks" aren't singular smart entities but a mixture of operational people, dumb mba people with a few smart people sprinkled in. To OP - If you watch Margin Call, you'll realize that some of these banks (GS I think) had these smart people that identified the risk and sold their positions in time.

Acrobatic-Song-3151

About fifteen years after two large reversals in GS and BA. GS was during financial crisis as I bought 10k clips every 10% down. I eventually ate that loss and flipped it all to SSO making up the 20k+ loss. BA was a decade later trading it between $300-$400. I made great money flipping it for a year and then the bottom fell out.  Now I’m lame, just trade macro news using ETFs and only individuals for sport. Except shorting the Vix…I’ve been real close to violating the 5% total net worth number on that play. 10k short right now using Svix and Vxx.

Quick dumb question: Are you all day trading or trading options? I couldn't get my credit spreads filled on BLK, GS, or LITE. 🤷🏾‍♂️

smart_doge

I lowkey do not trust Goldman Sach’s Marcus account. I feel if I need to withdraw funds on a rainy day, GS is the kind that’ll do the shitty move to control my withdrawal like Private Equity. Wealthfront seems fine that way

Thebaxxxx

Today is what we call the "delay event" word got out that the crash is here and lifeboats were deployed so big players could get out without losing too much. GS and a few others do have to look after their clients after all. On monday these ships are long gone and thats why we will open in the mid 500's

teamyg

Banking sector is the most under-valued with PE about 15, some tickers to be considered GS, JPM, BAC and WFC. You want to stay with big banks, try to avoid fintech since they're exposed to private credit.

FEB,2026 "As of late February 2026, Goldman Sachs (GS) identified a sharp U.S. stock market correction as the **paramount near-term threat to 2026 economic growth**, surpassing traditional concerns like inflation. While GS remained generally constructive on equities for 2026, they warned that a significant correction could reverse the "wealth effect" that has been fueling consumer spending, leading to significant headwinds.  Read the entire posting from them. It must suck not being one of the 1%, and reading this. They say somewhere between 10-20% correction off the top . but, still maintaining an overall 12% return for the year.

Buying $GS puts at the open works for a few days now.

Gefilte_F1sh

>The SEC fines the likes of JP, MS, GS every other year to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars. These companies employ hundreds if not thousands of compliance officers. Sounds like a calculated decision. They clearly profit more than the fines total or they'd fix the problem.

RookieMistake101

The SEC fines the likes of JP, MS, GS every other year to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars. These companies employ hundreds if not thousands of compliance officers. I’ve dealt with a number of SEC head aches from the custodian side (Goldman in our case). Yea they come down on the big boys too. It’s why the financial advice and offerings you get from a JP advisor may be so vanilla.

Do you think GS's projections are ever adjusted for inflation?

GS says oil to $200 every single time but I don't think we've actually seen crude hit $200 throughout our history.

ub3rm3nsch

GS can be wrong, but in this case I agree with them.

elpresidentedeljunta

If so, buy. They are actually killing it. Morgan Stanley is hiring new staff, because they are overwhelmed by the demand for deals in Hong Kong. And that credit talk is in part strategic. JP is trying to hurt more exposed actors like GS. Don´t get me wrong. I´ve been saying we are overvaluating the us economy by a large shot for a while. But banks won´t be where the pain is.

Very interesting interview with Jeff Currie, former head of commodities at GS: > “There is no policy response that can stop this ascent in crude — none,” Jeff Currie, chief strategy officer of Energy Pathways at Carlyle Group, told Bloomberg on Wednesday. > Global supply chains have been disrupted all over the world as a result of the Iran conflict, Currie said in the Bloomberg interview. Ships are in the wrong places, insurance policies on those ships have been canceled, and production has been shut down in places like Saudi Arabia, Iraq and the UAE, he noted. > “The damage is going to take months to unwind,” Currie said. > He added that “flow rate” is what matters following the the IEA’s decision to release oil from its reserves. Currie estimated that the maximum amount of oil that can flow out of the reserves is 2 million barrels per day, so the 400 million barrels released by the IEA could take 200 days to flow out. https://www.marketwatch.com/story/no-policy-response-can-stop-the-rise-in-crude-prices-says-jeff-currie-591118aa
