Stocks, Sass, and Surprises: A Goldman Sachs Guru’s Glorious Gamble šŸŽ²šŸ“ˆ

Ah, the world according to Goldman Sachs’ Anshul Sehgal—a man who looks at the global economic stage and sees not chaos, but a perfectly choreographed musical number. And darling, he’s tap-dancing straight into the stock market with bells on. šŸŽ©āœØ

As the global co-head of fixed income, currency, and commodities (a title so long it needs its own PR team), Sehgal has declared himself “definitely long stocks.” Because why wouldn’t you be? The earnings reports are practically waltzing in with ā€œblockbuster goodā€ news, and AI is apparently doing everything short of making him a cup of Earl Grey. ā˜•šŸ¤–

ā€œYou look at the AI CapEx boom,ā€ he trills, as if reciting poetry, ā€œthat’s contributing to GDP today. And over the next five to ten years, it’s the AI deployment that will add even more.ā€ Oh, Anshul, darling, do go on—though we suspect you’ll still be saying this when robots are writing your memos for you. šŸ¤–šŸ“

His strategy is nothing if not a smorgasbord of financial fabulousness: ā€œLong stocks, long the dollar, long carry because rates aren’t going anywhere, long mortgage basis, long US treasuries, short options on ratesā€¦ā€ One might wonder if he’s less of a strategist and more of a Hogwarts wizard casting spells on the market. šŸŖ„šŸ’ø

And let’s not forget President Donald Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill, which Sehgal believes could pair up with AI and robotics to unleash a credit boom so productive it would make Marie Kondo weep with joy. šŸ¦āœØ He insists this bonanza will favor US stocks above all else, leaving other investments looking like last season’s hand-me-downs.

ā€œWhen you look at it top down from that perspective, stocks continue to look very cheap to us.ā€ Cheap, darling? Or just delightfully underappreciated, like a vintage Chanel bag at a garage sale? Either way, Sehgal’s optimism is infectious—though one can’t help but wonder if he’s simply been sipping too much bubbly. šŸ¾šŸ’¼
