I never thought I'd write this but … I miss the old Goldman Sachs. That was the voice of Goldman Sachs 2009 — the adamantine firm that managed to make its way through the crisis relatively unscathed. This sort of dry humor worked back then, but for today's Goldman Sachs, the joke just doesn't hit the same way. Van Praag — who was once dubbed "Goldman Sachs' Rococo PR prince" by The Observer — left the firm in 2012. It would be nice to see the old Goldman Sachs ferocity is still out there somewhere, even if it's not on Wall Street.

☆ The Fed may hike interest rates another 3 times this year, Goldman says - and that would dial up pressure on stocks
▼ + stars: | 2023-02-21 | by ( Zahra Tayeb | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +3 min

The Federal Reserve could lift interest rates by another 75 basis points in total this year, Goldman Sachs says. The bank's chief economist suggested the Fed might raise rates at its March, May and June meetings to beat inflation. Most investors anticipate the US central bank will ease up on tight monetary policy or even start cutting interest rates this year as inflation cools. But with retail sales and payrolls surging and unemployment falling, there's a possibility the Fed may decide it has to keep ratcheting up interest rates. Higher interest rates encourage saving over spending and make borrowing more expensive, which tends to alleviate upward pressure on prices.
