What Trump’s policies could mean for the Fed
Trump, Rob Kaplan, Alison Nathan
In a November 11, 2024 discussion, former Dallas Fed President Rob Kaplan and Goldman Sachs' Alison Nathan evaluate the Federal Reserve's successful "soft landing" execution while highlighting significant purchasing power erosion for the lower 65 million workers. Kaplan predicts distinct regulatory shifts under the new administration and warns that structural factors like labor contraction and potential deregulation will complicate future inflation and growth trajectories. Consequently, he advises markets to treat the anticipated December rate cut as a conditional "game-time decision" pending clearer data on labor dynamics and the administration's fiscal strategy.

What Trump’s win means for markets and portfolios
Trump, Christian Mueller-Glissmann, Brian Garrett, Alison Nathan
Following Donald Trump's presidential victory, U.S. stocks, bond yields, and the dollar surged sharply as clients rapidly shifted from underweight to long positions in banks, technology, and energy sectors. Goldman Sachs analysts project a potential S&P 500 rally to 6,100 by mirroring 2016 post-election patterns, while noting that European equities and renewable energy stocks face immediate pressure from tariff fears and policy changes. Although the VIX dropped to historic lows due to suppressed hedging, the firm maintains an equity-overweight strategy with a neutral duration outlook, warning that sustained yield spikes or reflation frustration could eventually trigger market indigestion.
