Wall Street could get a boost from $1 trillion in buybacks, Goldman says

According to a Reuters article published on January 16, 2025, Wall Street is expected to see a significant boost from a potential $1 trillion in share buybacks, as forecasted by Goldman Sachs. The article highlights that this surge in buybacks could be driven by several factors including strong corporate earnings, a more favorable economic environment, and changes in tax policies that encourage companies to return capital to shareholders. Goldman Sachs analysts suggest that this level of buyback activity could provide substantial support to stock prices, potentially offsetting some of the market's volatility and providing a cushion against economic downturns. The anticipation of these buybacks comes at a time when companies are flush with cash, and with interest rates expected to remain relatively low, the cost of financing these repurchases remains attractive.
