When the trading year comes to an end, some of Wall Street’s biggest firms tend to start rolling out their projections and outlooks for the coming year, and Goldman Sachs has been the latest one to do so here. Investors need to keep track of what these big firms are doing and recommending to their audiences, as some might be bluffing, and some might be insiders "talking their book" just to get the masses to adopt their view.
Based on several economic indicators and other trading indicators, it looks like Goldman Sachs is talking its book right now rather than bluffing the market into a positioning or behavior that benefits the bank at the expense of Main Street. Knowing this, investors will want to grab a pen and paper for this analysis, as a lot of what has been said in the bank’s 2025 macro outlook report is not what it seems.
