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>

Goldman Sachs Adds 3 Stocks To 'Conviction List,' Flags 5 Market Trends To Monitor In 2025

Looking into the current session, Evercore Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EVR#NYSE">EVR</a>) shares are trading at $277.01, after a 0.32% drop. Over the past month, the stock decreased by 8.58%, but over the past year, it actually increased by 69.24%. With questionable short-term performance like this, and great long-term performance, long-term shareholders might want to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1735667108_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Evaluating Evercore P/E in Comparison to Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Evercore has a better P/E ratio of 35.63 than the aggregate P/E ratio of 30.62 of the Capital Markets industry. Ideally, one might believe that Evercore Inc. might perform better in the future than it's industry group, but it's probable that the stock is overvalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1735667108_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

<h2>Analyst Ratings: What Are They?</h2>
Analysts work in banking and financial systems and typically specialize in reporting for stocks or defined sectors. Analysts may attend company conference calls and meetings, research company financial statements, and communicate with insiders to publish "analyst ratings" for stocks. Analysts typically rate each stock once per quarter.
Some analysts publish their predictions for metrics such as growth estimates, earnings, and revenue to provide additional guidance with their ratings. When using analyst ratings, it is important to keep in mind that stock and sector analysts are also human and are only offering their opinions to investors.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Why Financial Stocks Soared In 2024</h3>
The 2024 rally in financial stocks has been driven by a potent cocktail of strong economic growth, declining interest rates, and deregulation optimism.
The U.S. economy demonstrated remarkable resilience, with economic growth accelerating from 1.6% in the first quarter to 3% in the second quarter, and maintaining a solid 2.8% in the third quarter. 
Survey data for December further underscored this momentum, showing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/12/42511277/us-services-sector-booms-at-fastest-pace-since-october-2021-business-activity-leaps-to-over-two-year-highs">private-sector activity expanding at its fastest pace since April 2022</a>, with particularly strong growth in the services sector—the backbone of the financial economy.
Bank of America&#8217;s global economics team recently summarized the sentiment, stating, &#8220;Pro-growth policies like deregulation of financial services and energy, as well as lower taxes, are boosting market sentiment and asset prices.&#8221;
One of the most critical tailwinds was the de-inversion of the U.S. yield curve. The Federal Reserve's decision to ease interest rates, coupled with steady economic growth and resilient inflation, flipped the gap between short- and long-term Treasury yields. This dynamic allowed banks to borrow cheaply via short-term funding and lend at higher, long-term rates—improving net interest margins and boosting profitability.
Mortgage rates, for example, remain high because they are linked to longer-dated Treasury yields, even as interest rates have declined. 
"Economic growth data has been coming in generally better than expected lately, which has helped push Treasury yields higher, while at the same time pricing out the need for an aggressive rate-cutting campaign by the Fed," LPL Financial said in a recent note.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">What's Next for Financial Stocks In 2025?</h3>
Heading into 2025, Wall Street sees more tailwinds for the financial sector, particularly from deregulation. "We expect a broad deregulatory push benefiting energy and financial services," Bank of America said. The firm also noted that deregulation in the banking system could ease credit constraints while stabilizing the financial system, especially given the rapid rise of private lending, which remains largely unregulated.
According to Goldman Sachs analyst Richard Ramsden, large-cap banks remain optimistic about the economy. "Healthy consumer spending trends and strong corporate balance sheets have supported a constructive outlook," Ramsden said in a recent note.
However, regional banks remain cautious about loan growth, with many pointing to a potential rebound in early-to-mid 2025. While client sentiment has improved post-election, this optimism hasn't yet translated into higher lending activity.

Financial Stocks Near Record Year: Could Trump Deregulation Fuel Bigger Gains In 2025?

Wells Fargo analyst Michael Brown maintains Evercore (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EVR#NYSE">EVR</a>) with a Equal-Weight and raises the price target from $266 to $318.

Wells Fargo Maintains Equal-Weight on Evercore, Raises Price Target to $318

Evercore's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EVR#NYSE">EVR</a>) short percent of float has fallen 22.39% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 719 thousand shares sold short, which is 2.01% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.78 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Evercore Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1731519023_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Evercore has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Evercore's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Evercore's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 2.88%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze/">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

How Is The Market Feeling About Evercore?

Financial stocks are basking in a post-election rally after Donald Trump's election win as investors anticipate a friendlier regulatory landscape for banks, brokers and<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets"> consumer finance companies</a>.
With expectations of deregulation and possible tax cuts, traders are piling into financials at levels not seen in years.
The Financials Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLF#NYSE">XLF</a>) jumped over 5% last week, hitting fresh record highs, while weekly inflows surged to $1.573 billion—the highest in over two years. 
Regional banks, in particular, were on fire, with the SPDR S&amp;P Regional Banking ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KRE#NYSE">KRE</a>) skyrocketing nearly 11% and seeing $1.09 billion in inflows, marking its largest influx of money since March 2023.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Key Drivers: Deregulation, Tax Cuts Fuel Investor Optimism</h3>
Investors are betting on a wave of Trump-favored financial reforms that could benefit the sector. 
Richard Ramsden, a Goldman Sachs analyst, highlighted that "the market is pricing in the potential for changes to a number of proposed regulations, a step up in capital markets activity, as well as the potential for a reduction in the corporate tax rate."
Potential regulatory changes under Trump could include:
<ol>
<li>401K Reform: Opening up retirement plans to private investments could attract a flood of new capital.</li>
<li>Relaxed Antitrust Regulations: A more lenient antitrust stance may spark increased mergers and acquisitions (M&amp;A) activity.</li>
<li>Reduced SEC Oversight: There is limited clarity on whether the SEC will continue probing brokers' sweep pricing practices.</li>
<li>Crypto-Friendly Policies: Financial firms with crypto exposure may benefit from a more favorable regulatory environment and higher digital asset prices.</li>
</ol>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Goldman Sachs's Top Picks Among Financials Stocks</h3>
In anticipation of these shifts, Ramsden and his team have identified several top picks across the financial sector. 
Here's where they see the biggest potential gains:
<ul>
<li>Large Banks: Citigroup Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/C#NYSE">C</a>), JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>), and Wells Fargo &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WFC#NYSE">WFC</a>).</li>
<li>Consumer Finance: Bread Financial Holdings (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BFH#NYSE">BFH</a>), Synchrony Financial (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SYF#NYSE">SYF</a>), and Capital One Financial Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COF#NYSE">COF</a>).</li>
<li>Capital Markets: Blackstone Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BX#NYSE">BX</a>), Apollo Global Management Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APO#NYSE">APO</a>), KKR &amp; Co. Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KKR#NYSE">KKR</a>), LPL Financial Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LPLA#NASDAQ">LPLA</a>), Tradeweb Markets Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TW#NASDAQ">TW</a>), Evercore Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EVR#NYSE">EVR</a>), and PJT Partners Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PJT#NYSE">PJT</a>).</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Steeper Yield Curve Expected to Boost Regional Banks</h3>
As markets react to potential economic stimulus and reduced regulatory pressure, analysts anticipate a steeper yield curve, which could be a windfall for banks with heavy exposure to fixed-rate assets. 
Around 60% of both regional and large banks' balance sheets consist of fixed-rate holdings, positioning them to profit as long-term rates rise.
Ramsden's picks for banks that stand to gain the most from a steeper yield curve include:
Regional Banks: 
<ul>
<li>Citizens Financial Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CFG#NYSE">CFG</a>)</li>
<li>Comerica Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMA#NYSE">CMA</a>)</li>
<li>First Hawaiian Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FHB#NASDAQ">FHB</a>)</li>
<li>Zions Bancorporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ZION#NASDAQ">ZION</a>)</li>
<li>Truist Financial Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TFC#NYSE">TFC</a>)</li>
<li>Huntington Bancshares Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HBAN#NASDAQ">HBAN</a>)</li>
<li>Regions Financial Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RF#NYSE">RF</a>)</li>
<li>PNC Financial Services Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PNC#NYSE">PNC</a>)</li>
<li>Ally Financial Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALLY#NYSE">ALLY</a>).</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Surge in Capital Velocity: M&amp;A and Trading Boost Expected</h3>
Trump's pro-business stance is also expected to accelerate capital velocity in the M&amp;A and equity capital markets, providing a strong backdrop for trading activity. 
According to Ramsden, large banks like Morgan Stanley (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MS#NYSE">MS</a>) could be the biggest beneficiaries, while among regional banks,&nbsp;KeyCorp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KEY#NYSE">KEY</a>)&nbsp;and&nbsp;Citizens Financial Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CFG#NYSE">CFG</a>)&nbsp;stand out.
Investment banks could also see a boost, with&nbsp;Jefferies Financial Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JEF#NYSE">JEF</a>),&nbsp;Moelis &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MC#NYSE">MC</a>),&nbsp;PJT Partners Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PJT#NYSE">PJT</a>), and&nbsp;Piper Sandler Companies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PIPR#NYSE">PIPR</a>)&nbsp;positioned to capitalize on a more active M&amp;A market. 
In the alternative asset management space,&nbsp;Carlyle Group Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CG#NASDAQ">CG</a>),&nbsp;KKR,&nbsp;Apollo,&nbsp;TPG Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TPG#NASDAQ">TPG</a>), and&nbsp;Ares Management Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARES#NYSE">ARES</a>)&nbsp;are expected to benefit from an uptick in private equity deal flow.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Tax Cut Hopes Could Supercharge Regional Banks</h3>
Financial stocks are uniquely positioned to benefit from any corporate tax reductions, given that 90% of their earnings come from the U.S. and are currently taxed at an average rate of 23%. After the 2017 tax reform slashed the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%, financials saw their effective tax rate drop by 10 percentage points.
Ramsden estimates that if the Trump administration pursues another tax cut, regional banks would likely see the most significant upside. 
His top tax-cut beneficiaries include&nbsp;Moelis &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MC#NYSE">MC</a>),&nbsp;American Express Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AXP#NYSE">AXP</a>),&nbsp;Evercore Inc.,&nbsp;Bread Financial Holdings,&nbsp;Piper Sandler,&nbsp;First Citizens BancShares Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FCNCA#NASDAQ">FCNCA</a>),&nbsp;Synovus Financial Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNV#NYSE">SNV</a>), and&nbsp;Western Alliance Bancorporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WAL#NYSE">WAL</a>).
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Insurers to Benefit from Steeper Curve, P&amp;C Pricing Power</h3>
The insurance sector may also stand to gain under Trump's pro-business policies. Ramsden expects potential increases in claim costs but sees positive momentum for property and casualty pricing.
Insurers with substantial U.S. exposure and a favorable position on the yield curve could see tailwinds.
Ramsden's picks in the insurance space include&nbsp;W.R. Berkley Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WRB#NYSE">WRB</a>),&nbsp;Hartford Financial Services Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HIG#NYSE">HIG</a>), and&nbsp;The Travelers Companies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TRV#NYSE">TRV</a>), which he believes are better positioned than brokers to benefit from these trends.
