Goldman Sachs just refreshed its lists of top global stock picks, adding some and removing others. The investment bank's "Conviction List - Directors' Cut" aims to offer investors a "curated and active" list of 15 to 25 buy-rated stocks. The stocks are selected by a subcommittee designated by the bank's Investment Review Committee for each region. Here are three of the latest additions to Goldman's directors' cut lists — for Asia-Pacific and Europe — that were given more than 30% upside potential in the next 12 months. Goldman has a target price of 11,850 British pence ($148.71) on the stock, giving it around 30.7% upside potential.

Citigroup on Friday posted first-quarter revenue that topped analysts' estimates, helped by better-than-expected results in the bank's investment banking and trading operations. Revenue slipped 2% to $21.10 billion, mostly driven by the impact of selling an overseas business in the year-earlier period. Investment banking revenue jumped 35% to $903 million in the quarter, driven by rising debt and equity issuance, topping the $805 million StreetAccount estimate. Fixed income trading revenue fell 10% to $4.2 billion, edging out the $4.14 billion estimate, and equities revenue rose 5% to $1.2 billion, topping the $1.12 billion estimate. Now, analysts want to know if Citigroup can maintain its previous guidance for full-year revenue and expense targets.

Arm shares rocketed as much as 41% late Wednesday after the chip designer reported revenue and earnings that sailed past analysts' estimates. SoftBank took Arm public in September and still owns about 930 million shares, or roughly 90% of the chip designer's outstanding stock. Arm pared its initial gains, but SoftBank's stake still jumped by almost $16 billion — from close to $71.6 billion to $87.4 billion — after the earnings report. Softbank acquired Arm in 2016 for $32 billion, and its shares were worth just over $47 billion at the time of the IPO last year. The Vision Fund, SoftBank's venture arm, posted a $6.2 billion loss in the second quarter of 2023, tied to WeWork and other soured bets.

While demand for artificial intelligence applications is seeing rapid growth, several non-tech companies are well-positioned to benefit directly from the AI boom over the next few years, according to Scotiabank. This is because although GPUs, the specialized chips that power AI applications, are more efficient, they consume more than twice as much electricity to operate compared to non-AI chips such as CPUs. The Scotiabank analysts named six stocks that they think are well-positioned to capitalize on surging demand for data centers and renewable energy from AI applications. Meanwhile, earlier this week, fellow data center firm Equinix launched a new cloud service that will allow companies to manage their Nvidia AI supercomputing infrastructure to build AI applications. Due to their massive, power-hungry data centers, Scotiabank noted that the tech companies are the largest corporate consumers of renewable power.

As always the names indicated in green are stocks we hold, so it seems we believe they can. The average price-earnings ratio for Bank of America, Wells Fargo, JPMorgan Chase and Citigroup is just 10.3, less than half the S & P 500 overall. Upside with limited risk Notice that the earnings related implied move in the table indicates modest volatility expectations around earnings. Bank of America took on more duration risk than competitors, and consequently its assets took more of a hit as interest rates rose. BEFORE MAKING ANY FINANCIAL DECISIONS, YOU SHOULD STRONGLY CONSIDER SEEKING ADVICE FROM YOUR OWN FINANCIAL OR INVESTMENT ADVISOR.

"We can do that because we already spend 300 million euros a year for social causes," Messina said. Intesa has among core shareholders charitable banking foundations inspired by Catholic values, commonly referred to in Italy as "Catholic finance". "I hope to have the honour to continue to lead our company for many years with this philosophy," Messina said. At the helm since 2013, Messina has made the digital switch a key plank of his long-term strategy for Intesa, with a view to cutting costs and focusing resources on wealth management and insurance operations. Intesa this year launched both Isybank, a cloud-based, low-cost mobile bank to serve younger, mass-market clients, and Fideuram Direct, a digital wealth management service targeting younger private banking clients.

Morgan Stanley CEO James Gorman attends the Reuters NEXT Newsmaker event in New York, December 1, 2022. Morgan Stanley posted third-quarter results Wednesday that topped profit estimates on better-than-expected trading revenue. But the bank's all-important wealth management division generated $6.4 billion in revenue, below the $6.63 billion estimate by more than $200 million, as compensation costs in the division rose. Shares of Morgan Stanley dipped 3.2% in premarket trading. Led by CEO James Gorman since 2010, Morgan Stanley has managed to avoid the turbulence afflicting some rivals lately.

Morgan Stanley CEO James Gorman plans to retire by May 2024. "Cross-pollinating key leaders across our major businesses further knits the Morgan Stanley culture," Gorman wrote in a memo at the time. Morgan Stanley, which was the lead underwriter, had to step in to prop up the stock. In 2010, Morgan Stanley was picked as one of two lead underwriters — the other being JPMorgan — for the IPO of General Motors. With Morgan Stanley at the top of its game, breaking up this well-oiled team could be disastrous.

MARRAKECH, Morocco, Oct 12 (Reuters) - World Bank shareholders on Thursday endorsed further reforms and a new vision statement committing the multilateral development bank to work for "a world free of poverty on a liveable planet," German Development Minister Svenja Schulze said. "With the reform, we will make the World Bank into a better bank that uses its funds in a more targeted way," she said. "The World Bank will be able to provide more funds for poverty reduction and climate action." The World Bank would begin piloting this option for small states that are particularly affected by climate change, she said. Schulze said the bank's shareholders would push on to enact reforms and improvements at other development banks.

The next 10 years will be unlike the last two decades for investors, according to investment advisors and wealth managers. Those conditions could create more volatility and lower returns for assets that have done well over the past decade, according to Monchau. ELTIFs allow individual investors to invest alongside institutions in assets like infrastructure, private equity and private credit. "The ability to generate income is going to be far and away the better place for the next decade for investment," he said. For younger investors more than 10 years from retirement, Cox recommends a 100% equity portfolio, maximising returns with low-cost index ETFs.

JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon is bullish on the benefits of artificial intelligence, which is already being used by thousands of employees at his bank, and he predicts it'll usher in the norm of a shortened workweek. "Your children are going to live to 100 and not have cancer because of technology," Dimon said Monday in an interview with Bloomberg TV. Dimon says the bank's investments in AI "will add huge value" and is being leveraged across the firm's research, trading, customer service and other functions. When asked if the technology is likely to replace some bank jobs, he responded that "of course" it will, but that "technologies always replace jobs." Tech innovations also create new jobs and opportunity: AI technology could improve labor productivity and boost global GDP by as much as 7% over time, Goldman Sachs' report noted.

The logo of SoftBank Group Corp is displayed at SoftBank World 2017 conference in Tokyo, Japan, July 20, 2017. REUTERS/Issei Kato/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsTOKYO, Sept 21 (Reuters) - S&P Global Ratings revised its credit outlook for Japanese technology investor SoftBank Group (9984.T) to positive from stable after the initial public offering (IPO) of British chip designer, Arm Holdings , its largest asset, last week. Analysts have said that improving SoftBank's credit rating was likely a central motivation for listing Arm. SoftBank shares failed to climb on the improved credit outlook, instead falling 2% in morning trade, their third day of declines. While Arm had a stellar first day of trade on Sept. 15 with shares soaring 25%, it last traded just above its IPO price of $51.

That's after a year of "defence mode" when tech valuations crashed amid higher interest rates and global banking jitters. Few companies in SoftBank's investment portfolio have demonstrated commercial utility in AI, analysts said.

Arm CEO Rene Haas rings the opening bell, as Softbank's Arm, chip design firm, holds an initial public offering (IPO) at Nasdaq Market site in New York, U.S., September 14, 2023. Arm says it has a 10% share in cloud computing chips, 41% in automotive chips, 25.5% in networking and 64.5% in Internet of Things. That makes Arm China, not better-known names like Apple (AAPL.O) or Qualcomm (QCOM.O), Arm's largest customer. Arm China, in which Arm itself is in effect only a minority shareholder, underwent a nearly two-year boardroom battle between its local chief and shareholders that ended last year. In its latest earnings for the June quarter, SoftBank valued Arm at $45 billion, but two months later, it bought back a 25% stake in Arm that had been owned by SoftBank's investment vehicle, the Vision Fund, at a $64 billion valuation.

If the negotiations lead to a deal, the Japanese tech investor would be delivering a major, immediate windfall to VF1 investors, including Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund and Abu Dhabi's Mubadala. A big windfall for VF1 investors could boost SoftBank's chances of tapping them for capital again in the future. VF1's investment committee and SoftBank's investment advisory board, attended by fund investor representatives, are handling the negotiations, one of the sources added. SoftBank, VF1 and Arm declined to comment. SoftBank, which took Arm private for $32 billion in 2016, sold a 25% stake in the company to VF1 for $8 billion in 2017.
