Yahoo Finance VideoGoldman Sachs stock 'a clear winner' in current market: Analyst
Goldman Sachs (GS) reported first quarter earnings, beating analyst expectations on both the top and bottom lines. UBS's US Brokers and Asset Managers Analyst Brennan Hawken joins Yahoo Finance to discuss why Goldman Sachs stock "makes a ton of sense" for investors. Hawken notes that capital markets recovery has contributed to the upside seen in Goldman Sachs' stock performance. Additionally, the successful sale of GreenSky and the bank's exit from the consumer business have helped drive "better-than-expected" results. The analyst observes that the first quarter is "typically a seasonally strong quarter for investment banking." While cautioning that Goldman Sachs' earnings shouldn't be viewed as a straightforward trend, Hawken acknowledges that the results have demonstrated "they've repositioned this franchise in order to drive earnings." Addressing the market volatility stemming from Federal Reserve rate cut uncertainty, Hawken states that "volatility drives volume," which is "a good thing" for trading businesses like Goldman Sachs — calling the bank "a clear winner in this environment."
