Goldman Sachs research kicked off the new year with bold stock picks and a spotlight on five investment themes poised to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/12/42710358/veteran-investor-bets-big-on-sp-500-hitting-7000-by-end-of-2025-these-sectors-could-lead-the-charge">shape markets in 2025.</a>
What Happened: In a note shared Thursday, the analyst team led by Steven Kron shuffled its &#8220;Conviction List&#8221; — a carefully curated portfolio of top investment ideas.
Goldman Sachs added Belden Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BDC#NYSE">BDC</a>), Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NCLH#NYSE">NCLH</a>), and Uber Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>) to the list. These companies replaced Fox Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FOXA#NASDAQ">FOXA</a>), Parker Hannifin Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PH#NYSE">PH</a>), and TPG Inc. (TPG).

Why It Matters: Industrial tech is back in vogue. Analyst Mark Delaney sees Belden riding a cyclical industrial recovery while expanding its high-margin software solutions business. Delaney models earnings per share (EPS) above consensus estimates for both 2025 and 2026, making this a standout pick in the industrial space.
Cruises are sailing into a stronger 2025. Analyst Lizzie Dove cites accelerating Net Purchase Intent (NPI) data and cost savings from a 2023 management shuffle. Dove expects Norwegian to widen its yield-to-unit-cost spread by 2.5 percentage points, bringing its valuation closer to peer Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RCL#NYSE">RCL</a>).
Analyst Eric Sheridan remains bullish on Uber despite skepticism over its mobility business and the rise of autonomous vehicles. He forecasts a robust 39% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) in adjusted EBITDA from 2023-2026. According to the bank, Uber is set to deliver $3.50 in GAAP EPS by 2026—a projection that sits 7% above consensus. Goldman Sachs holds a 12-month price target of $96 on Uber stock, implying a nearly 60% upside from current market levels.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Key Themes For 2025: AI, M&amp;A, Deglobalization, And More</h3>
The investment bank also outlined five key themes to track as we enter the new year.
<ul>
<li>Artificial Intelligence: Goldman's Kash Rangan expects AI investment to shift in 2025, moving from infrastructure spending to platforms and applications. In a recent note, Rangan highlighted the increasing integration of AI into enterprise software. Stocks with exposure to this trend include Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), Snowflake Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNOW#NYSE">SNOW</a>) and Teradyne Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TER#NASDAQ">TER</a>).</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>De-regulation, M&amp;A, And Capital Markets Rebound: Regulatory changes under a potential second Trump administration could accelerate M&amp;A activity, Goldman analysts say. Financial firms like Citigroup Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/C#NYSE">C</a>), Evercore Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EVR#NYSE">EVR</a>), and S&amp;P Global (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPGI#NYSE">SPGI</a>) are positioned to benefit. Analyst Richard Ramsden recently indicated a more favorable environment for banks and financial advisors.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Re-powering America: Carly Davenport flagged the surging power demands of data centers and AI compute, noting this trend is driving sustained growth in utilities capex. Her team stressed the importance of energy infrastructure to support the transportation electrification. Stocks like DBA Sempra (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SRE#NYSE">SRE</a>) is Goldman&#8217;s top pick here.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Deglobalization: The era of tariff wars is far from over. Jan Hatzius and economics team expect a 20 percentage point hike in tariffs on Chinese imports and new duties on European autos and Mexican EVs. Companies like Vulcan Materials Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VMC#NYSE">VMC</a>) and Woodward Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WWD#NASDAQ">WWD</a>) are well-positioned to adapt to supply chain disruptions caused by these policies.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Resilient US Consumers: Despite macro concerns, Goldman Sachs continues to paint another strong year for U.S. consumers. Discretionary cash flow is expected to grow by 5.2% in 2025, up from 4.4% in 2024, supported by higher savings rates. Stocks to watch include Norwegian Cruise Line, Uber, Burlington Stores Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BURL#NYSE">BURL</a>), and Pinterest Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PINS#NYSE">PINS</a>).</li>

<h3>Why Insider Activity Matters in Finance</h3>
It's important to note that insider transactions alone should not dictate investment decisions, but they can provide valuable insights.
Exploring the legal landscape, an "insider" is defined as any officer, director, or beneficial owner holding more than ten percent of a company's equity securities, as stipulated by Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This encompasses executives in the c-suite and major hedge funds. These insiders are required to report their transactions through a Form 4 filing, which must be submitted within two business days of the transaction.
Highlighted by a company insider's new purchase, there's a positive anticipation for the stock to rise.
But, insider sells may not necessarily indicate a bearish view and can be motivated by various factors.
<h3>Exploring Key Transaction Codes</h3>
Taking a closer look at transactions, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-tools">investors</a> often prioritize those unfolding in the open market, meticulously cataloged in Table I of the Form 4 filing. A P in Box 3 denotes a purchase, while S signifies a sale. Transaction code C denotes the conversion of an option, and transaction code A signifies a grant, award, or other acquisition of securities from the company.

Shares of companies within the broader tech sector are trading lower amid overall market weakness. Weakness may be due to August's ISM Manufacturing PMI data indicating an economic contraction.

While &quot;the trend is your friend&quot; when it comes to short-term investing or trading, timing entries into the trend is a key determinant of success. And increasing the odds of success by making sure the sustainability of a trend isn&#39;t easy.
The trend often reverses before exiting the trade, leading to a short-term capital loss for investors. So, for a profitable trade, one should confirm factors such as sound fundamentals, positive earnings estimate revisions, etc. that could keep the momentum in the stock alive.
Our &quot;Recent Price Strength&quot; screen, which is created on a unique short-term trading strategy, could be pretty useful in this regard. This predefined screen makes it really easy to shortlist the stocks that have enough fundamental strength to maintain their recent uptrend. Also, the screen passes only the stocks that are trading in the upper portion of their 52-week high-low range, which is usually an indicator of bullishness.
<h2>Belden</h2>
(NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/bdc#NYSE">BDC</a>) is one of the several suitable candidates that passed through the screen. Here are the key reasons why it could be a profitable bet for &quot;trend&quot; investors.
A solid price increase over a period of 12 weeks reflects investors&#39; continued willingness to pay more for the potential upside in a stock. BDC is quite a good fit in this regard, gaining 4.1% over this period.
However, it&#39;s not enough to look at the price change for around three months, as it doesn&#39;t reflect any trend reversal that might have happened in a shorter time frame. It&#39;s important for a potential winner to maintain the price trend. A price increase of 10.6% over the past four weeks ensures that the trend is still in place for the stock of this communications equipment company.
Moreover, BDC is currently trading at 97.8% of its 52-week High-Low Range, hinting that it can be on the verge of a breakout.
Looking at the fundamentals, the stock currently carries a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), which means it is in the top 5% of more than the 4,000 stocks that we rank based on trends in earnings estimate revisions and EPS surprises -- the key factors that impact a stock&#39;s near-term price movements.
The Zacks Rank stock-rating system, which uses four factors related to earnings estimates to classify stocks into five groups, ranging from Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) to Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell), has an impressive externally-audited track record, with Zacks Rank #1 stocks generating an average annual return of +25% since 1988.
Another factor that confirms the company&#39;s fundamental strength is its Average Broker Recommendation of #1 (Strong Buy). This indicates that the brokerage community is highly optimistic about the stock&#39;s near-term price performance.
So, the price trend in BDC may not reverse anytime soon.
