What happened

Well supportedReported by 14 independent outlets

Goldman Sachs strategists contend that corporate earnings at S&P 500 firms are strong, with profits in many companies jumping around 30% during the first two quarters of the year. This robust performance is largely attributed to the artificial intelligence boom and increased corporate capital expenditure. However, the firm warns that this current profitability may be unsustainable, noting that the pace of profit margin expansion at semiconductor-related firms is likely to slow in the coming years.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The market is facing headwinds from high Treasury yields, which reached over 5% on the 10-year bond as of September 18. Strategists caution that the market's dependence on AI investments for growth is high, and the tailwinds supporting current earnings are expected to fade after 2026.
