October 02 AI Is Becoming a Stock Picker's Market
Trading in artificial intelligence (AI) stocks is evolving as investor interest broadens beyond semiconductor makers and companies that benefit from capital expenditures in AI, says Peter Callahan, US Technology, Media, and Telecommunications sector specialist in Goldman Sachs FICC and Equities. On The Markets podcast, he says investors are increasingly focused on companies that help organizations implement the technology and AI agents for commerce. Callahan also discusses how rising interest rates are impacting technology stocks, the growing dispersion among software companies, and his outlook for semiconductor stocks.

September 25 Why the Bond Market May Be the Stock Market's Biggest Risk
With US 10-Year Treasury yields climbing this week to the highest level since 2007, the bond market may be the biggest risk to further equity gains, says Tony Pasquariello, global head of hedge fund coverage in Goldman Sachs FICC and Equities. Shorting bonds could be a useful
hedge for stock investments, he says on The Markets podcast. S&P 500 earnings growth, meanwhile, has been “mind-bending,” helping to keep valuations from becoming stretched, Pasquariello says. However, the increase in earnings may begin to taper off, and US stock returns may slow from their double-digit annual pace. He also sees opportunities in Japan’s TOPIX, as the country’s equity market gets a boost from shareholder reforms and government spending on defense and industrialization.

September 18 The Opportunities for Investors amid Higher-for-Longer Interest Rates
The Federal Reserve signaled this week that interest rates could be higher for longer, which may pose a challenge for the broader equity market if tighter policy leads to less consumption, says Anshul Sehgal, global co-head of Fixed Income, Currency and Commodities. However, companies that specialize in computing and data centers could be an opportunity for investors amid elevated interest rates. On The Markets podcast, Sehgal also discusses his take on the latest Federal Open Market Committee meeting and his outlook for longer-term bond yields.

September 11 What a Fed Rate Hike Could Mean for US Stocks
Investors are pricing in a higher likelihood that the Federal Reserve will hike rates after core CPI inflation rose in August more than economists had estimated. However, a rate hike may not keep the US stock market from climbing higher, says Jonathan Shugar, head of Cross Asset Sales in Goldman Sachs FICC and Equities, on The Markets podcast. Companies reported strong earnings growth in the second quarter, and valuations near the 10-year average are not stretched, he explains. Shugar also discusses why a Fed hike may not restrain investment in artificial intelligence, the risks in longer-term interest rates, and the potential opportunity for investors in consumer experience stocks.

September 04 Why Gold Is Expected to Rise to Record Highs
Gold set a record high in January, but uncertainty about US interest rates and disruption from the Iran war have led to an “elongated pause” in the rally, according to Tony Kim, global head of Metals Trading in Goldman Sachs FICC and Equities. Ultimately, Kim expects strong central bank demand for the yellow metal to help drive gold to new highs, he says on The Markets podcast. Kim also discusses whether fiscal sustainability concerns could spur a rotation into gold, how reduced investment demand from Asia is impacting gold markets, and why silver has been volatile in 2026.

August 28 What Is the Outlook for Diesel and Gasoline Supplies?
Energy markets have been surprisingly resilient amid the disruption to shipping through the Strait of Hormuz.

Jindal also discusses China’s remarkable adjustment to the disruption in energy supplies and the outlook for natural gas prices in Europe as winter approaches.

August 21 Why US Equity Returns Are Broadening Beyond AI Stocks
While artificial intelligence (AI) has been a key driver of US stocks, a wider range of sectors is starting to power the S&P 500, says Shawn Tuteja, head of ETF and Custom Basket Volatility Trading in Goldman Sachs FICC and Equities, on The Markets podcast. Tuteja also discusses the robust strength in earnings across 9 of 11 sectors in the S&P 500, elevated volatility among AI-related themes, and the interplay between oil prices, longer-maturity bond yields, and Federal Reserve policy.

July 24 Are Hedge Funds Still Bullish on AI Stocks?
Tech stocks been buffeted by a reversal of momentum in US equities, but hedge funds are still fundamentally bullish on AI stocks, according to Vincent Lin, co-head of Prime Insights and Analytics in Global Banking & Markets. In this conversation with Chris Hussey, he explains why the greatest cumulative selling of tech stocks in the history of his data set looks more like a “healthy reset” amid crowded trades and high volatility rather than a loss of conviction in the AI trade.
