Goldman Sachs Eyes Record M&A, Inflation Risks

Watch: Next quarterly earnings will reveal if GS can sustain elevated fee income amid inflation and tightening financial conditions.

Goldman Sachs reports Q1 M&A volumes at $861.1B, up 9.7% YoY, signaling a 2026 surge rivaling 2021 records. GS raised its 2026 S&P 500 target to 8,000, expecting 17% total returns supported by a 24% EPS growth forecast. Inflation remains the biggest economic risk, with April PCE hitting a three-year high and Fed rate hike odds above 50%. GS improved derivatives risk controls, cleared Fed and FDIC reviews, supporting regulatory stability.

Strong M&A activity and S&P 500 gains imply growth for GS's advisory and trading units despite inflation-driven cost pressures and rising bond yields that may shadow near-term earnings.
