Goldman Sachs: Fed's July Hold Absolutely Correct, Should Stay Flexible Ahead of September
: Goldman Sachs analyst Robert Kaplan said the Fed's decision not to raise interest rates in July was "absolutely" correct, urging policymakers to keep an open mind ahead of September, citing the complex factors affecting inflation and warning that rigid forward guidance could be counterproductive. Kaplan noted: "If we see meaningful improvement, I might be willing to continue holding, but I want to make full use of every moment before September to assess the situation, avoiding rigidity or preconceived notions."Kaplan believes the forces currently at play include: inflationary pressures from AI infrastructure build-out, tariffs, labor constraints, and surging oil prices; meanwhile, AI applications are working in the opposite direction, accelerating the trend of disinflation. He suggested that Warsh should use his speech at this month's Jackson Hole symposium to briefly explain the Fed's reasoning for holding steady in July, rather than delivering a purely "philosophical" address. Kaplan said he is more concerned about the long end of U.S. Treasury yields than the federal funds rate itself. He noted that the rebound in long-term government bond yields globally reflects structural supply-demand imbalances driven by persistent wide fiscal deficits, rather than Fed policy. (Jin Shi)

Goldman Sachs: US AI Investment to Reach $600 Billion, GDP Boost Only 0.1 Percentage Points
According to TechFlow Research, Goldman Sachs' August 10 research report predicts that U.S. AI investment will reach $600 billion by 2026, accounting for nearly 2% of GDP and over 10% of business fixed investment. The three major crowding-out channels total approximately $50 billion: substituting other tech investment by about $30 billion, crowding out other construction by about $10 billion, and AI bond issuance pushing up interest rates by about 5 basis points corresponding to an investment reduction of about $10 billion. AI investment directly boosts GDP by only 0.1 percentage points; after adjusting statistical methodology, the real boost is about 0.3 percentage points; considering wealth effects and crowding-out effects, the net impact is about 0.2 percentage points. Goldman Sachs believes the market narrative on AI driving growth is somewhat exaggerated; much of AI investment is spent on imported equipment; data center construction shows significant local crowding-out but is offset by a decline in manufacturing facilities at the national level; AI bond issuance impacts interest rates by only 5 basis points. AI is neither a panacea nor a vampire; the actual boost to the economy is smaller than it sounds, and the crowding-out effect is also less than feared.

$1 billion Bitcoin premium income ETF yields 27%, Goldman Sachs to Hold BTCI in Neos Trades
Odaily News: Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas posted on X platform, stating that Goldman Sachs will hold BTCI in Neos trades. BTCI is a $1 billion Bitcoin premium income ETF with a 27% yield, capturing most but not all of Bitcoin's upside. He noted this explains why Goldman Sachs never launched its Bitcoin covered call options product filed months ago; rather than launching a similar product, it is better to surpass BlackRock's BITA.

Bank of America: NVIDIA $500 Billion Third-Party Financing Diversifies Risk, No Need to Tap Balance Sheet
According to TechFlow Research, a Bank of America research report on August 10 pointed out that NVIDIA signed a memorandum of understanding with Apollo, BlackRock, Blackstone, Brookfield, Goldman Sachs, and KKR to mobilize over $500 billion in third-party capital through an independent platform. Previously, NVIDIA invested approximately $70 billion in equity in ecosystem partners such as OpenAI and Anthropic, accounting for only 15% of the expected free cash flow of $470 billion from 2026 to 2027, without affecting the commitment to return 50% of free cash flow to shareholders. Bank of America believes the financing structure shifts the capital burden from NVIDIA to the consortium. GPU computing power can be transferred across operators, and CUDA extends the service life, with the asset quality itself resisting depreciation. The $500 billion fund pool allows non-investment grade buyers to acquire GPUs at preferential rates, transforming AI computing power acquisition from capital-intensive purchases to financial leasing, supporting the $1.7 trillion AI system TAM by 2030. Bank of America maintains a Buy rating with a target price of $350, corresponding to 26 times the expected earnings per share in 2027. The upcoming earnings conference call is the next important catalyst.

Goldman Sachs: US Plans to Ban Chinese Optical Modules, Leading Manufacturers' Moat Deeper Than Market Expects
According to TechFlow Research, Reuters reported on August 4 that the Trump administration and the FCC are drafting a plan to ban US imports of Chinese data center components, with optical modules specifically mentioned. Goldman Sachs responded to three core questions in an August 10 research report: rapid technological iteration, strong AI demand, and high R&D requirements for multiple SKU varieties make clients more reliant on existing leading manufacturers in the current environment and unlikely to switch to new suppliers easily. Seven of the top ten global optical module suppliers are headquartered in China, and their market share in 2025 will expand further compared to 2024. Goldman Sachs pointed out that leading manufacturers have outstanding advantages in capacity commitments, automated production, and manufacturing efficiency. Product upgrades to 1.6T and above further raise the manufacturing threshold, making it difficult for small and medium-sized manufacturers to catch up in the short term. Overseas capacity deployment is underway; Eoptolink's Phase I in Thailand is at full capacity, and Phase II will expand in 2026, establishing a long-term diversification trend. Goldman Sachs gave Buy ratings to Eoptolink and Robotechnik, and also gave Buy ratings to FOCI, LandMark, and VPEC (all Taiwan stocks), believing that technology, capacity, and customer synergy constitute difficult-to-replicate competitive barriers.

Nvidia Partners with Six Major Asset Managers to Drive AI Infrastructure Financing, Aiming to Mobilize Over $500 Billion in Capital
Odaily News Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang announced that the company has partnered with Apollo, BlackRock, Blackstone, Brookfield, Goldman Sachs, and KKR to establish an independent financing platform, planning to mobilize over $500 billion in third-party capital over the long term to support AI infrastructure development.Huang stated that the AI industry is transitioning from a phase where "enterprises purchase chips and build data centers project by project" to a new stage where AI factories serve as financeable productive infrastructure. AI computing power is becoming an investable asset, characterized by long-term institutional capital support, repeatable construction, and usage by diverse customers.Nvidia noted that AI factories encompass not only GPUs but also high-speed networking, system software, AI frameworks, and the CUDA ecosystem. Built on globally widely adopted architectures, AI factories can serve different customers, cloud providers, and application scenarios, while possessing strong asset liquidity and residual value.In this collaboration, Apollo, BlackRock, Blackstone, Brookfield, Goldman Sachs, and KKR will independently evaluate specific projects, including customer demand, compute utilization, cash flow, and asset value. Nvidia will provide the AI factory platform, while the financial institutions will handle long-term capital and financing capabilities.Huang indicated that in some projects, Nvidia may provide up to 25% residual value support, but this will be prudently assessed on a project-by-project basis. The mechanism is designed to supplement, not replace, the independent judgment of institutional investors.He believes that AI factories will become the "infrastructure of the intelligent era," much like how electricity, transportation, and communication infrastructure drove past industrial revolutions. Going forward, growing demand for AI computing will create a virtuous cycle where "more compute drives stronger AI, stronger AI generates more revenue, and more revenue further fuels compute demand."

NVIDIA Partners with Six Major Wall Street Institutions to Establish $500 Billion AI Infrastructure Financing Platform
According to CNBC, Nvidia has signed a memorandum of understanding with Apollo Global Management, Blackstone, BlackRock, Brookfield Asset Management, Goldman Sachs, and KKR to jointly establish a financing platform for Nvidia customers, aiming to mobilize over $500 billion in third-party capital for hyperscale data center construction and Nvidia hardware procurement. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang characterized this as the first time AI chips have become an "investable asset class," stating they possess revenue-generating capabilities, long service lives, and can be transferred across customers, while analogizing compute infrastructure to electricity and the internet. BlackRock CEO Larry Fink defined the project as the "next future of financial engineering" following the securitization of mortgages in the 1970s, and stated that more funds would be raised as soon as possible. Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon revealed that this collaboration was initiated by Jensen Huang. Currently, some funds have already been raised; the parties will provide financing support for GPUs and data centers through institutional credit, insurance capital, and private capital, helping end users complete AI infrastructure construction without tapping their own balance sheets.

Goldman Sachs: Hedge Funds Buy Global Stocks for Second Consecutive Week, Risk Appetite Clearly Rebounds
Odaily News: Goldman Sachs data shows that global hedge funds have increased their stock holdings for the second consecutive week, reversing the significant reduction in risk exposure seen in late July, indicating that institutional investors' risk appetite is warming up.The report shows that overall hedge fund trading activity has risen to its highest level in seven weeks, with long buying volume exceeding short selling volume at a ratio of 1.4:1. Meanwhile, single-stock trading has seen its first net buying in nearly a month, suggesting that fund managers are beginning to re-establish exposure to individual stocks.In terms of sector allocation, the materials sector has emerged as one of the areas with the strongest capital demand, experiencing the largest short-covering rally in nearly two years. Goldman Sachs noted that the recent improvement in market sentiment has led to the rapid unwinding of previously established short positions, further boosting related sector performance.Earlier, hedge funds significantly reduced their stock positions in late July due to concerns over economic growth, heightened market volatility, and policy uncertainty. This consecutive buying spree suggests that some institutions are once again betting on a rebound in risk assets.

Bullish executive urges passage of the CLARITY Act: The FTX incident proves the crypto market needs a legal regulatory framework
According to Odaily, Randi Abernethy, Head of Clearing and Group Risk at Bullish, stated that the U.S. Senate's failure to pass the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act (CLARITY Act) does not mean the digital asset market will stop developing; rather, it highlights the necessity of establishing a federal regulatory framework.Abernethy noted that during the Senate's consideration of the CLARITY Act, traditional U.S. financial institutions have continued to accelerate their entry into the on-chain market. JPMorgan Chase has explored tokenized ETF holdings through a production pilot with the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC), and more than 50 institutions (including BlackRock and Goldman Sachs) are also participating in the development of tokenized stock and Treasury bond infrastructure. The current regulatory discussion is no longer just a "crypto industry issue," but one that concerns the future infrastructure of the entire financial system.Abernethy cited the 2008 financial crisis as an example, noting that financial risk spreads along shared infrastructure, and even institutions not directly involved in related assets can be affected. Today, the stablecoin market size has exceeded $100 billion, with a large portion of stablecoin reserves invested in U.S. Treasuries. If a major stablecoin were to face a crisis, it could impact liquidity in traditional financial markets. She stated that supporters of the CLARITY Act believe the bill could establish a unified regulatory framework for the digital asset market, including core investor protection mechanisms such as customer asset segregation, conflict of interest management, capital requirements, and information disclosure.
