Goldman Sachs Predicts Stock Market Slowdown

Goldman Sachs forecasts a significant slowdown in the stock market, predicting returns will drop from an average of 13% per year over the last decade to just 3% annually over the next ten years. This steep decline is attributed to several macroeconomic factors, including a potential trade war, high interest rates, and substantial national debt. Additionally, the report highlights the dominance of seven major tech companies, termed the 'Magnificent Seven,' whose growth may stagnate, thus dragging the overall market down with them. Historically, similar patterns have emerged after periods of concentrated market growth, suggesting that while Goldman Sachs' forecast may not necessarily repeat history, the trends can show parallels.
