Bulls Used This Rallying Bank Stock Goldman Sachs (GS) to Double Their Money
By: Schaeffer's Investment Research | November 14, 2022
• Weekend Trader Alert subscribers did not miss out on Goldman Sach's surge
• Shares are now trading at their highest level since January
Subscribers to our Schaeffer's Weekend Trader Alert service scored a 100% profit with our recommended Goldman Sachs Group Inc (NYSE:GS) January 20, 2023 340-strike call in just over one week. Below, we will dive into why we suggested that call in the first place, and how the trade played out so quickly.
At the time of our recommendation on Sunday, Oct. 30, we noted how the security had staged multiple pullbacks to its ascending 36-month moving average and its 2018 peak. The shares had also pushed above the 252-day trendline, which acted as resistance in September.
What's more, Goldman Sachs stock was fresh off a positive post-earnings reaction, and closed above a trendline connecting lower highs since Nov. 21. Short interest had surged to its highest level in over two years in mid-August, too, and shorts seemed to be in the early stages of covering.
The equity continued to rally -- up 13% since our recommendation -- and is now eyeing its sixth gain in the last seven sessions. Last seen up 0.2% at $386.24, shares are also now trading at their highest level since January. Shares have also added 31.8% so far this quarter, and conquered its year-to-date breakeven level.

Goldman Sachs Group (GS) Stock Conquers Long-Term Trendline
By: Schaeffer's Investment Research | November 2, 2022
• Goldman Sachs is fresh off a positive post-earnings reaction
• GS has been showing signs of life recently
Goldman Sachs Group Inc (NYSE:GS) stock is showing signs of life. Since June, the security has staged multiple pullbacks to its ascending 36-month (or three-year) moving average, as well as its 2018 peak. Furthermore, the equity just pushed above its 252-day moving average, which acted as resistance in September, just one day after moving above a trendline of potential resistance from its lower highs since August.
The equity is also fresh off a positive post-earnings reaction, and last week closed above a trendline connecting lower highs since November 21. Plus, GS is above the $336 level, which is 1.2 times its June closing low, and $339, which is 0.8 times its all-time closing high.
Short interest hit its highest level in over two years in mid-August. Now, shorts are in the early stages of covering, with total short interest still about 20% above this year’s low point in May. Anyone that shorted since May is now underwater.
Analysts have been growing increasingly cautious on GS despite its recent rally, which could signal a big shift in trend, with several downgrades since July. Our recommended January 2023 call has a leverage ratio of 4.8 and will double in value on an 11.8% pop in the underlying shares.

Restructuring Plans, Quarterly Win Boost Goldman Sachs Group (GS) Stock
By: Schaeffer's Investment Research | October 18, 2022
• Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon warned of a potential recession
• GS could today conquer resistance at the 100-day moving average
Goldman Sachs Group Inc (NYSE:GS) stepped into the earnings confessional today to report better-than-expected third-quarter earnings of $8.25 per share and a revenue win. The bank concern also announced restructuring plans, with the company set to split into three units amid a year-over-year drop in quarterly profits, and rising interest rates that have hurt both deal-making and valuations. Additionally, Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon warned there is a "good chance" the U.S. economy will see a recession.
Last seen up 4.6% to trade at $320.75, the equity is looking to add to yesterday's 2.2% pop. The shares are bouncing off their lowest level since mid-July, and attempting to conquer overhead pressure at the 100-day moving average. Year-to-date, GS is still 16.7% lower, however.
The options pits have been extremely bearish of late. This is per Goldman Sachs stock's 50-day put/call volume ratio of 1.11 over at the International Securities Exchange (ISE), Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE), and NASDAQ OMX PHLX (PHLX), which stands higher than 96% of annual readings. This means long puts have been getting picked up at a much faster-than-usual clip.
The tides appear to be shifting, though. So far today, 8,980 calls and 6,603 puts have already crossed the tape, which is five times the average intraday volume. Most popular is the October 330 call, followed by the 325 call in that same series, both of which expire at the close this Friday.

Earnings Preview: Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (NYSE: GS)
By: 24/7 Wall St. | October 14, 2022
• Here is a preview for four companies set to report quarterly results first thing Tuesday morning.
Goldman Sachs
Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (NYSE: GS) has posted a 12-month share price decline of about 19.5%. The continued slowdown in IPOs and M&A likely hit will the firm’s investment banking revenue harder than the rise in net interest income will boost its overall revenue. A new initiative launched this week with Apple to offer a high-yield savings account to Apple Card holders is unlikely to bear fruit for a few quarters. Even then, it is unlikely to make up the revenue declines in investment banking.
Of the 26 analysts covering the firm, 18 have a rating of Buy or Strong Buy and seven more have Hold ratings. At a share price of around $305.40, the upside potential based on a median price target of $370.00 is 21.2%. At the high price target of $483.00, the implied upside is 58.2%.
Third-quarter revenue is forecast to come in at $111.53 billion, a decline of about 2.8% sequentially and a drop of 15.3% year over year. Adjusted EPS are forecast at $7.51, down 2.8% sequentially and 98.8% lower year over year. The current estimates for the 2022 fiscal year call for revenue of $47.26 billion, down 20.4%, and EPS of $33.67, down about 43.4%.
The stock trades at 9.1 times expected 2022 EPS, 8.2 times estimated 2023 earnings of $37.34 and 7.4 times estimated 2024 earnings of $41.60. Its 52-week trading range is $277.84 to $426.16. Goldman Sachs pays an annual dividend of $10.00 (yield of 3.4%). Total shareholder return for the past 12 months was negative 19.4%.

Goldman Sachs (GS) Stock Boasts Scary Good Seasonality in October
By: Schaeffer's Investment Research | October 3, 2022
• Plus, 24 more names to own this month
• Goldman Sachs is the best performing bank and blue-chip stock this month, historically
Blue-chip bank giant Goldman Sachs Group Inc (NYSE:GS) is off to a promising start this month, last seen up 2.2% at $299.48, as the market tries to brush off some of the pain felt by Wall Street in September. The security has managed to keep some distance from its current perch and its July 14 annual low of $277.84. This is thanks to a floor at the $290 region, though it hasn't been able to break out above the $301 mark since gapping below here several weeks prior. The good news is, Goldman Sachs has seasonality on its side, and could stage a breakout this month, if history is any indication.
Schaeffer's Senior Quantitative Analyst Rocky White just conducted a study highlighting the 25 best performing S&P 500 Index (SPX) stocks in October, going back 10 years. According to White's data, GS has seen positive returns during nine of these years, averaging a 4% monthly pop. This makes Goldman Sachs stock the best bank stock on the list, as well as the top performing Dow member. Should GS make a similar move this month, it would put the security just below the $312 level.
The stock could be overdue for a short-term bounce, regardless. The equity's 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) of 19 puts in well into "oversold" territory.
An unwinding of pessimism among options traders could also be on the horizon. At the International Securities Exchange (ISE), Cboe Options Exchange (CBOE), and NASDAQ OMX PHLX (PHLX), GS sports a 50-day put/call volume ratio of 1.14, which sits in the 99th percentile of its annual range. In other words, long puts have rarely been more popular during the past year.

Goldman Sachs consumer banking unit under Fed scrutiny - Bloomberg Law
By: Reuters | September 16, 2022
Goldman Sachs Group Inc's consumer banking unit is being reviewed by the Federal Reserve, Bloomberg Law reported on Friday, citing people familiar with the matter.
Goldman's management has been subjected to questions and follow-ups from the central bank's officials for several weeks, the report said, adding that the process was still ongoing. (https://
Goldman Sachs (NYSE:GS) and the Fed declined to comment.
Goldman Chief Executive Officer David Solomon has sought to reduce the bank's reliance on volatile trading and investment banking by shifting focus to its consumer bank.
Internal projections at the bank show its consumer unit, Marcus, will record losses of more than $1.2 billion this year, Bloomberg News reported in June.
Marcus was launched in 2016 and was originally expected to make profits in 2021, but the cost of investing in new products and acquisitions derailed those projections.

Goldman Sachs (GS) Stock Brushes Off Steep Price-Target Cut
By: Schaeffer's Investment Research | September 12, 2022
• The financial services name's credit card loan loss rate is the worst among U.S. lenders
• The equity is today eyeing its fourth-straight daily win
Goldman Sachs Group Inc (NYSE:GS) is brushing off a steep price-target cut from Deutsche Bank to $370 from $430, last seen up 0.9% to trade at $343.44. The financial services concern is in focus after reports its credit card loan loss rate is the worst among U.S. issuers, and well above that of subprime lenders. Over a quarter of the company's credit card customers have a credit score below 660, leaving it exposed to substantial losses in the event of a recession.
The equity is extending a bounce off a pullback to the $325 region, and is now eyeing a fourth-straight daily win. The 50-day moving average is guiding the shares higher as well, after moving in as support in mid-July. Year-over-year, though, Goldman Sachs stock has shed 15.2%.
The options pits remain firmly bearish, per the security's 10-day put/call volume ratio of 1.27 at the International Securities Exchange (ISE), Cboe Options Exchange (CBOE), and NASDAQ OMX PHLX (PHLX), which ranks higher than 94% of readings from the past year.

Goldman Sachs (GS) Makes Morningstar Undervalued Stocks List
By: TheStreet | July 22, 2022
• Morningstar created a list of stocks that fell to 'significantly undervalued' levels in the past month, compared to their estimates.
With the S&P 500 dropping 17% so far this year, many stocks have sunk to attractive valuations in some experts’ eyes.
The market now trades at about a 15% discount to fair value, as estimated by Morningstar analysts.
The firm put together a list of stocks that fell to “significantly undervalued” levels in the past month compared to Morningstar’s fair value estimates.
Then it filtered that list to include only companies that receive a moat from Morningstar analysts. That means the companies “hold a competitive advantage over their peers, through things such as high switching costs or intangible assets like patents,” Morningstar said.
Here are the eight companies on its list, in order of discounts from Morningstar’s fair value estimates. The valuation discounts are from July 19...

Morningstar’s Take on Goldman Sachs
It has “made progress on the strategic plan that it laid out at the beginning of 2020 and set even more ambitious goals in 2022,” Morningstar analyst Michael Wong wrote in a commentary.
“The company is now targeting a medium-term return on tangible equity (ROTE) of 15% to 17%…, an expense ratio goal of about 60% and growth targets for its asset management and consumer banking businesses.”
Wong isn’t sure the company can do all of that in three years. But “we forecast the company will exceed 15% ROTE … after its consumer business has reached a more profitable scale.”

Goldman profit beat, easing rate-hike bets drive futures higher
By: Reuters | July 18, 2022
• U.S. stock index futures on Monday extended gains from the previous week in the run-up to another round of earnings from big U.S. banks on easing bets of a super-sized interest-rate hike by the Federal Reserve.
(Reuters) – U.S. stock indexes looked set to open higher on Monday after Goldman Sachs beat profit expectations, extending last week’s positive momentum amid easing bets of a super-sized interest-rate hike by the Federal Reserve.
Dow futures rose nearly 300 points in premarket trading, picking up from Friday when U.S. economic data showed stronger-than-expected retail sales, an uptick in consumer sentiment, and lower inflation expectations.
“You’re getting the feeling that perhaps all the bad news is out of the way and investors are looking to see if this would be a reasonable entry point,” said Rick Meckler, partner at Cherry Lane Investments.
Goldman Sachs gained 3.4% as it reported a smaller-than-expected 48% slump in second-quarter profit, helped by strength in its fixed-income trading. The investment banking giant’s results follow upbeat quarterly results from Citigroup Inc on Friday.
Most big U.S. banks were higher on Monday, but Bank of America Corp fell 0.9% after posting a nearly 34% drop in second-quarter profit.
At 8:22 a.m. ET, Dow e-minis were up 282 points, or 0.9%, S&P 500 e-minis were up 31.75 points, or 0.82%, and Nasdaq 100 e-minis were up 117.5 points, or 0.98%.
U.S. futures, however, pulled back from session highs, tracking a fall in European markets after Russia’s Gazprom declared force majeure on some gas supplies to Europe.
Among other shares, Boeing Co jumped 4% after Delta Air Lines said it will buy 100 MAX 10 jets worth about $13.5 billion at list prices and has options to buy another 30 at the Farnborough air show.
With second-quarter earnings season in full swing, analysts now expect aggregate year-on-year S&P 500 second-quarter profit growth of 5.6%, down from the 6.8% estimate at the beginning of the quarter, according to Refinitiv data.

Earnings Previews: Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (NYSE: GS)
By: 24/7 Wall St. | July 14, 2022
• Here is a look at what to expect from four companies on deck to report quarterly results Monday morning.
Goldman Sachs
Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (NYSE: GS) has posted a 12-month share price decline of about 22%. For the year to date, the stock is down 28%. The slowdown in IPOs and M&A likely will hit the firm’s investment banking revenue harder than the rise in net interest income will boost its overall revenue. Trading revenue should be solid, and what the bank projects for the rest of the year will be critical for investors.
Of the 27 analysts covering Goldman Sachs, 17 have a rating of Buy or Strong Buy and the rest have Hold ratings. At a share price of around $290.20, the upside potential based on a median price target of $381.00 is 31.3%. At the high price target of $505.00, the implied upside is 74.0%.
Second-quarter revenue is forecast to come in at $10.77 billion, a decline of about 16.7% sequentially and a drop of 30% year over year. Adjusted EPS are forecast at $6.70, down almost 38% sequentially and 55.4% lower year over year. The forecast for the 2022 fiscal year calls for revenue of $46.29 billion, down 22%, and EPS of $34.39, down about 42.2%.
The stock trades at 8.4 times expected 2022 EPS, 7.7 times estimated 2023 earnings of $37.68 and 7.0 times estimated 2024 earnings of $41.16. The stock’s 52-week range is $278.15 to $426.16. Goldman Sachs pays an annual dividend of $8.00 (yield of 2.76%). Total shareholder return for the past 12 months was negative 21.1%.

Goldman Sachs Makes Morningstar Financial-Stock List
By: TheStreet | July 8, 2022
• Financial stocks have dropped, with the S&P 500 Financials Sector Index slumping 18% year to date.
The year 2022 hasn’t been kind to financial-services stocks. The S&P 500 Financials Sector Index has slumped 18% year to date.
But as of June 27 the drop left more than 70% of the North American financial stocks that Morningstar covers undervalued. The financial-research and -services firm's analysts determine a fair value for each stock that they cover.
“The median North American financial stock trades at a 21% discount to its fair value estimate compared with a 1% discount at the end of the first quarter of 2022 and a 2% premium at the end of the fourth quarter of 2021,” Michael Wong, director of Morningstar’s equity research for North American financial services, wrote in a commentary.
So now might be a time to consider financial stocks.
To be sure, financial companies still face some headwinds. “For banks, loan chargeoffs should begin to increase, as the buffer in savings that consumers stowed away is spent,” Wong said.
“Banks also had abnormally high mortgage refinancing, underwriting, merger advisory, and trading revenue in 2020 and 2021, and these revenue streams should normalize lower over the next couple of years.”
Meanwhile, with U.S. stocks and bonds slumping, “asset and wealth managers with asset-based fees will report a drop in revenue until the markets recover,” Wong said.
But on the plus side, the Federal Reserve’s interest rate increases “benefit the earnings of many financial companies,” Wong noted.
Here are his top picks for financial stocks.

Morningstar assigns it a narrow moat and puts fair value for the stock at $430, 44% above the recently trade at $298.
“Goldman Sachs … will likely face headwinds over the next year or two, as investment banking and trading revenue normalize lower from elevated 2020 and 2021 levels,” Wong said. “We believe much of this is already factored into the stock’s price.”
In the medium term, Goldman should benefit from “initiatives that should improve the stability of its earnings, such as its push into consumer banking and changes in its investment-management business,” Wong said.
