Spark’s Take on GS Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, GS is a Outperform.

The score is driven by strong technical momentum and a bullish earnings-call outlook with clear growth targets and robust capital returns. Financial performance is solid on revenue/profitability but tempered by high leverage and weak cash-flow trends, while valuation is only moderately supportive given the P/E and modest dividend yield.
