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.
