Check Out What Whales Are Doing With Goldman Sachs Gr

The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/2024-election">hotly contested 2024 election</a> between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump has Americans bracing for a down-to-the-wire finish. While Harris has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40969781/nate-silvers-forecast-kamala-harris-retakes-lead-over-donald-trump">a slight lead</a> in polling forecasts, the race remains an essential toss-up. 
As market participants consider investment ideas tied to the election, telling signs might be found in the aftermath of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/2016-presidential-election">the 2016 election</a>.
Election Debrief: Trump won the 2016 election in a surprising upset over Democrat Hillary Clinton. He ran on a platform of building a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border, repealing Obamacare, enacting deregulation and prioritizing fossil fuels.
Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/20/11/18261020/joe-biden-wins-2020-presidential-election-as-donald-trump-pushes-lawsuits-recounts">lost the 2020 election</a> to Democrat Joe Biden.
2016 Winners: Large bank stocks benefitted the most from Trump&#8217;s 2016 triumph.
Shares of JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>) soared over 13% in the week following Trump&#8217;s surprising win, according to data from Yahoo Finance. Goldman Sachs Group Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>) traded up over 17% that week. Morgan Stanley (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MS#NYSE">MS</a>) saw an 18% bump in share price. Wells Fargo &amp; Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WFC#NYSE">WFC</a>) also had a fantastic week as shares jumped over 16%.
Blackstone Inc&#8216;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BX#NYSE">BX</a>) Stephen Schwarzman is among <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/05/39021029/donald-trump-to-get-endorsement-from-blackstone-ceo-steve-schwarzman-report">Trump&#8217;s biggest supporters</a> on Wall Street. Shares of the private equity giant traded up nearly 9% in the week following the 2016 election.
The market&#8217;s preference for financial stocks after Trump's win comes as no surprise, given his strong support for deregulating the financial sector.

Trump&#8217;s 2016 victory was also favorable to the oil and coal industries due to his support for deregulating the energy sector and prioritizing American energy production. Shares of coal mining company Arch Resources Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARCH#NYSE">ARCH</a>) rocketed up over 21% in the week following the election. Exxon Mobil Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XOM#NYSE">XOM</a>) and Chevron Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVX#NYSE">CVX</a>) saw modest gains.
2016 Losers: Indexes in foreign countries fell overnight on election day 2016, <a href="https://money.cnn.com/2016/11/08/investing/global-markets-stocks-trump-clinton-us-presidential-election/index.html">according</a> to CNN. The Mexican peso plunged 9%, while European indexes fell a few percentage points. The Russia-tracking iShares MSCI Russia ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ERUS#NYSE">ERUS</a>) ticked higher overnight.
Tech stocks closed the week in the red, perhaps due to regulatory concerns. Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) and Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) all ticked down 2 to 3 percentage points.
Clean energy stocks faced challenges after the 2016 election. Electric vehicle manufacturer Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) ended the week down over 5%, following Trump&#8217;s victory. At the time, CEO Elon Musk had not <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40145805/elon-musk-says-his-endorsement-of-trump-doesnt-mean-he-agrees-with-everything-ex-president-is-saying">yet endorsed Trump</a> for a future run, but the market reaction reflected broader concerns for clean energy under a pro-fossil-fuel administration. Canadian Solar Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSIQ#NASDAQ">CSIQ</a>) saw an even steeper decline, shedding over 16% of its market value in the week after the election.
Why it Matters: If history were to repeat itself, a Trump win in 2024 would likely bode well for financial, oil and coal companies. On the flip side, tech companies under regulatory scrutiny and clean energy stocks could see declines in Trump&#8217;s hypothetical return to the White House.

Spotlight on Goldman Sachs Gr: Analyzing the Surge in Options Activity

After securing a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41175197/openais-latest-eye-popping-valuation-ignites-analyst-expectations-for-tidal-wave-of">whopping $6.6 billion funding</a> round, ChatGPT-parent&nbsp;OpenAI has bagged a&nbsp;$4 billion revolving credit line.
What Happened: The new credit facility will bolster its liquidity to $10 billion, allowing the AI startup to invest in high-cost <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/07/39856365/openai-in-talks-with-broadcom-to-develop-new-ai-chip-aims-to-reduce-reliance-on-nvidia-report">computing capacity</a> including Nvidia Corporation&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) chips.
&#8220;This credit facility further strengthens&nbsp;our balance sheet and provides&nbsp;flexibility to seize future growth&nbsp;opportunities,&#8221; said OpenAI CFO&nbsp;Sarah Friar, in a blog on Thursday.
The credit line is facilitated by a consortium of banks: JPMorgan Chase (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>), Citigroup, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/C#NYSE">C</a>), Goldman Sachs (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>), Morgan Stanley (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MS#NYSE">MS</a>), Banco Santander S.A.

Why It Matters: Earlier this week, OpenAI, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41149788/openai-valuation-soars-to-157b-in-latest-funding-round">valued at nearly $157 billion</a>, raised funds&nbsp;from returning venture capital investors&nbsp;such as&nbsp;Thrive Capital and Khosla Ventures.
Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), which has already invested approximately $13 billion into the AI firm over the last five years,&nbsp;and new investor Nvidia, also&nbsp;participated in the funding round.
Despite <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/41059344/sam-altman-hits-back-at-trolls-after-mira-muratis-openai-exit-explains-executive-drain-as-natural-we">major executive changes</a>, including the sudden exit of CTO Mira Murati, investors remain optimistic about OpenAI&#8217;s growth prospects.
However, OpenAI has also faced criticism from Elon Musk, who accused the company of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41156902/elon-musk-says-openai-is-evil-after-chatgpt-parent-reportedly-asked-investors-not-to-invest-in-rival">unfair funding practices</a>.
On the other hand, analysts expect a &#8220;tidal wave&#8221; of AI spending, with OpenAI&#8217;s latest valuation seen as a trigger for this growth stage.

Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Comparing Goldman Sachs Gr's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>

According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Goldman Sachs Gr's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.39%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

Oppenheimer Maintains Outperform on Goldman Sachs Gr, Raises Price Target to $577

Earlier this month, the Federal Reserve slashed interest rates by 50 basis points at its September Federal Open Market Committee meeting, lowering the federal funds rate in the range of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/09/40926026/federal-reserve-delivers-bold-0-5-rate-cut-signals-further-easing-ahead" rel="noreferrer noopener">4.75%-5%</a>.
The Fed also hinted at the potential for additional cuts in the coming months, with the updated dot plot revealing a more aggressive rate-cutting trajectory than <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/09/40965372/fed-delivers-large-interest-rate-cut-in-bid-to-sustain-labor-market-stocks-gold-set-new-record-h" rel="noreferrer noopener">forecasted in June</a>.
Morgan Stanley economists anticipate an additional 150 basis points of rate reductions by mid-2025, with the U.S. economy steering clear of a recession.
Morgan Stanley highlights the banks expected to see the greatest net interest margin (NIM) expansion or compression through the end of 2025, based on the projection that short-term rates will decrease by 200 basis points.
Midcap banks are in a stronger position as they experienced greater pressure on deposit costs (higher deposit betas) when interest rates increased. They anticipate this pressure to ease at a similar pace as rates fall.
Also, midcap banks hold more fixed-rate assets that were issued when rates were much lower in 2021 and 2022, allowing for higher repricing even as rates decrease coupled with lower liquidity requirements.
For midcap banks, the analyst identifies Prosperity Bancshares Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PB#NYSE">PB</a>), rated Overweight, as offering the best risk-reward profile. The firm is expected to experience one of the largest net interest margin (NIM) expansions through the fourth quarter of 2025, driven by the upward repricing of fixed-rate loans and securities.
Similarly, Cadence Bank (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CADE#NYSE">CADE</a>), newly rated Overweight, is projected to benefit from a significant rise in NIM as deposit costs decline. It has minimal exposure to floating-rate loans and net cash, which tend to weigh on earnings when interest rates drop.
While M&amp;T Bank Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MTB#NYSE">MTB</a>), the analyst&#8217;s top pick, ranks in the middle of the group, Morgan Stanley writes that future rate cuts will slightly boost NIM—a view that contrasts with the broader market consensus, which sees rate cuts as a long-term negative for margins.
Rate cuts are advantageous for the seven major large-cap banks sensitive to liabilities. These money center banks also have significant revenue exposure to capital markets, likely boosting fee income growth in a low-rate, soft-landing scenario.
Morgan Stanley expects this environment to strongly support M&amp;A and Equity Capital Markets (ECM) activity. Additionally, lower rates are generally a credit positive for the banking sector.
For large-cap banks, Morgan Stanley holds an Overweight rating on Citigroup Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/C#NYSE">C</a>), Goldman Sachs Group Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>), and Bank of America Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>), citing expectations for a rebound in capital markets revenues amid a lower-rate environment and a sharp increase in buybacks following the Basel Endgame reproposal.
Regions Financial Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RF#NYSE">RF</a>) and U.S. Bancorp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/USB#NYSE">USB</a>) are favored due to their liability sensitivity and commercial and industrial loan growth potential to accelerate post-rate cuts.
Meanwhile, Wells Fargo &amp; Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WFC#NYSE">WFC</a>) is highlighted for its strong excess capital levels and the possibility of progress on lifting its asset cap, which could favorably tilt the risk-reward outlook.

Wells Fargo, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs Poised For Gains Amid Fed Rate Cuts - Morgan Stanley

Singapore's proximity to China, Japan, and India, paired with world-class trade infrastructure and a stable political and regulatory landscape, cements its status as a premier business hub in the region. With English as an official language, communication, and navigation are furthermore effortless—Singapore can be regarded as the West's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/singap">gateway to Asia.</a>
That is Benzinga's take after attending <a href="https://milkeninstitute.org/events/asia-summit-2024">Milken Institute's Asia Summit</a> and <a href="https://www.token2049.com/">TOKEN2049</a>, held alongside the <a href="https://singaporegp.sg/en/">Formula One Singapore Grand Prix</a>. The events were a big draw, attracting tens of thousands and jamming the city-state country with traffic. Global leaders from the public and private sectors seized the opportunity to share how they navigate multipolarity and transformation; here are some key takeaways from Singapore.
Takeaway 1: Invest In China
At the Milken Institute's Asia Summit, Ray Dalio, founder of Bridgewater Associates, warned of looming economic challenges, describing it as a "hundred-year storm." While U.S. assets may be fairly valued, they carry more risk to the downside. Accordingly, Dalio advised diversifying into Asia, with China offering significant potential for growth.
Lim Chow Kiat, CEO of GIC, the firm managing Singapore's foreign reserves, and Stephanie Hui, head of Private and Growth Equity in Asia Pacific, head of Asia Pacific Private Investing, and global co-head and co-chief investment officer of Growth Equity within Goldman Sachs Asset Management, echoed Dalio's sentiment.
"You need to diversify into Asia," Hui said. "That's where the growth is."
Takeaway 2: Global Trade Order Disrupted
Peter Mandelson, the co-founder and president of Global Counsel and chairman of the International Advisory Board, focused on growing uncertainties around the global trading order and the shift towards a multipolar world, noting that "danger signals are flashing."
Jacqueline Poh, managing director of Singapore's Economic Development Board, pointed out that Southeast Asia—especially Singapore—is benefiting. While global trade as a percentage of GDP has decreased, foreign direct investment (FDI) has risen in Southeast Asia, with companies increasingly moving their global supply chain hubs to Singapore.

Takeaway 3: Recruiting Beyond Universities
Anne Corona, CEO of AON PLC (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AON#NYSE">AON</a>) Asia Pacific, calls for a more diversified approach to recruitment, urging companies to look beyond universities. At the Milken Institute event, she emphasized that diverse talent pools can bring fresh perspectives and higher retention, with employees often expressing a stronger desire to learn and grow within.
Takeaway 4: Words To Motivate A Workforce
On the same panel, James Vowles, the team principal of Williams Racing, shared his approach to leadership, which focuses on trusting and empowering his team.
"My job is to put them on a pedestal and promote them to the world," he said. "They are remarkable individuals—let the world know that."
Takeaway 5: Walk Before Running In Crypto
Wrapping up Benzinga's coverage at the Milken Institute's Asia Summit, Crypto.com's President and Chief Operating Officer, Eric Anziani, expressed a more measured approach to making digital assets accessible to everyone worldwide.
"We like to set the foundation before we run," he explained. "Then we go aggressive and put our name out there," referencing Crypto.com's strategic approach to marketing, something its competitor OKX serendipitously nailed across the city after it unveiled the limited-edition ‘Legend Reborn' livery on the car that ended up winning the 2024 Singapore Grand Prix.
"If you look at crypto, for a large part of our existence, it's been a very engineering-lead industry," OKX's Chief Marketing Officer Haider Rafique shared during a TOKEN2049 panel alongside McLaren Racing driver Lando Norris. "We want to be remembered as a design and engineering-led technology company."
Takeaway 6: Crypto Moving To Horizontal Model
Sudhu Arumugam, chief product officer at M2 Exchange, envisions crypto adopting a horizontal model where exchange, clearing, and custody are separate. This approach, taken from traditional finance, would enable M2 to focus on doing what it does best: building an on-ramp into digital assets with new tools for spending, saving, and investing. Arumugam adds M2's offerings will cater to a broader range of users, including sophisticated participants looking to more efficiently capitalize on opportunities like pricing discrepancies between spot and futures markets.
"Only the professional trading firms and HFTs have been able to have access to that."
Takeaway 7: Crypto's Real-World Use Cases
Propy co-founder Denitza Tyufekchieva privately showcased how blockchain makes real estate transactions faster and safer. She explains that Propy automates processes like title transfers and escrow, allowing buyers to verify funds and complete purchases within minutes. Conversely, agents can lean on AI to cut paperwork and focus more on clients.
"We've built this transactional engine that allows the instant access of transfer of ownership and transfer of funds and everything to be recorded on-chain," Tyufekchieva said, noting Propy is building a single source on-chain registry for real estate ownership. "Our mission is to help end users buy and sell real estate quickly."

Top 7 Takeaways From Milken, TOKEN2049, And F1 Singapore: Why Experts Say 'Diversify Into Asia'

In the face of a contentious U.S. presidential election, changing Federal Reserve policies, and potential recession threats, U.S. stocks have <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40429580/kamala-harris-and-donald-trump-push-economic-agendas-as-election-nears">shown resilience and growth</a>.
What Happened: The S&amp;P 500 Index has recorded its third successive week of gains, with a 5.1% increase in the third quarter, marking its best start to a year since 1997. The index&#8217;s market capitalization has also crossed the $50 trillion milestone for the first time.
Surprisingly, these gains were not significantly driven by Big Tech companies. The Nasdaq 100 Index saw a modest 1.7% increase for the quarter, while the equal-weight version of the S&amp;P 500 surged nearly 9%, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-09-29/traders-blow-off-us-election-risks-as-stocks-race-into-october?srnd=homepage-americas&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">reports</a> Bloomberg.
Mary Ann Bartels, chief investment strategist at Sanctuary Wealth, expressed her bullish outlook on stocks, predicting the S&amp;P 500 to end this year at 6,000, a roughly 4.6% increase from Friday&#8217;s close.
This optimism is echoed by trading data from Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>), which reveals a threefold increase in bets on information technology stocks rising than falling.
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/41080258/while-trump-launches-100k-luxury-watch-wife-melania-trump-talks-about-rising-inflation-the-country-i">While Trump Launches $100K Luxury Watch, Wife Melania Trump Talks About Rising Inflation: &#8216;The Country Is Suffering, People Not Able To Buy Necessities For Their Families&#8217;</a>
However, concerns persist. The Fed is striving to orchestrate a soft landing following a period of swift inflation and aggressive rate hikes, and the likelihood of a recession in the next 12 months remains high, according to the New York Fed.
Despite these risks, the consensus expectations are for steady economic growth. The Atlanta Fed&#8217;s GDPNow model forecasts real gross domestic product to rise at a 3.1% annual rate in the third quarter, up from 3% in the second quarter.
Why It Matters: Investors are now shifting their focus to the coming weeks, which will bring crucial jobs reports, a wave of earnings from major US companies, the US presidential election on Nov. 5, and the Fed&#8217;s next interest-rate decision on Nov. 7. These events will undoubtedly influence the market&#8217;s trajectory and investor sentiment in the near term.

US Stocks Defy Odds, Reach New Milestones Amid Economic Volatility

In the current market session, Goldman Sachs Gr Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>) share price is at $493.68, after a 0.52% increase. Moreover, over the past month, the stock fell by 2.26%, but in the past year, went up by 53.18%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is overvalued, even if the company is performing up to par in the current session.

<h3>How Does Goldman Sachs Gr P/E Compare to Other Companies?</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of the 43.44 in the Capital Markets industry, Goldman Sachs Gr Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 15.76. Shareholders might be inclined to think that the stock might perform worse than it's industry peers. It's also possible that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1727360110_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.

Smart Money Is Betting Big In Goldman Sachs Gr Options

In October 2023, Sanofi SA (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNY#NASDAQ">SNY</a>) announced its plans to spin off its consumer healthcare business as the French pharmaceutical company outlined its strategic update to increase investment in its drug-development <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/23/10/35458838/sanofi-goes-the-rival-way-plans-separation-of-consumer-healthcare-unit" rel="noreferrer noopener">pipeline and cut costs</a>.
Sanofi said the spinoff would allow it to increase its focus on innovative medicines and vaccines.
Sanofi&#8217;s consumer health unit boasts a portfolio that includes popular over-the-counter products like Phytoxil cough syrups, Icy Hot pain relief gels, and Dulcolax laxative tablets.&nbsp;
According to a Bloomberg <a target="_blank" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-09-24/sanofi-said-to-get-binding-bids-from-cd-r-pai-for-consumer-arm?srnd=prognosis&amp;embedded-checkout=true" rel="noreferrer noopener">report</a>, two private equity firms, Clayton Dubilier &amp; Rice and PAI Partners, made separate bids for Sanofi&#8217;s consumer health division.
The update pushes the European pharma giant closer to one of the largest European deals this year, which could value the unit at 15 billion euros ($16.8 billion) or more, the Bloomberg report added.
The separation is expected to occur by Q4 2024 by creating a publicly listed entity headquartered in France.
In July, Goldman Sachs Group Inc.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>) and&nbsp;Morgan Stanley (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MS#NYSE">MS</a>) said they were preparing to arrange more than $6.5 billion (6 billion euros) in debt financing for potential buyers interested in acquiring&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/07/39755459/sanofis-20b-consumer-health-unit-sale-goldman-sachs-morgan-stanley-line-up-6-5b-financing" rel="noreferrer noopener">Sanofi&#8217;s&nbsp;consumer health division</a>.
The move highlighted banks&#8217; interest in supporting leveraged buyouts through pre-arranged financing.
Sanofi may opt for a spinoff of its consumer health business if the offers aren&#8217;t appealing, Bloomberg noted, citing sources. A company spokesperson told Bloomberg that Sanofi is evaluating potential separation options, with the earliest possible transaction happening in the fourth quarter of this year, and noted that preparations are progressing as planned.
In November 2023, Sanofi reportedly initiated talks with Rothschild &amp; Co. to explore the possibility of spinning off its consumer health division, which could potentially value the business <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/23/11/35823034/major-buyout-firms-eye-sanofis-consumer-health-division-spinoff-valued-over-20b" rel="noreferrer noopener">at over $20 billion</a>.&nbsp;
Rival pharma giants&nbsp;GSK Plc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GSK#NYSE">GSK</a>)&nbsp;and&nbsp;Johnson &amp; Johnson (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JNJ#NYSE">JNJ</a>) split their consumer healthcare units&nbsp;Haleon Plc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HLN#NYSE">HLN</a>) and Kenvue Inc&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KVUE#NYSE">KVUE</a>), respectively.

The Fed lowered its key interest rate on Wednesday by an unexpected 50 basis points to a range between 4.75% and 5%, setting in motion an expected gradual decrease in rates on bonds, car loans, mortgages and anything else with an interest rate.
Wayfair said the proceeds from the notes, which will mature in 2029, go towards paying back certain convertible senior notes and general corporate purposes.
