【BitPush】Goldman Sachs’ latest 2026 economic outlook has been released. Here’s what they say — the US economy will maintain strong growth, while inflation remains moderate, with both happening simultaneously.

More importantly, the Federal Reserve’s moves. According to Goldman Sachs’ forecast, the Fed will continue to cut interest rates, with two rate cuts expected for the year. When exactly? Once in June and once in September, each by 25 basis points.

This forecast has a significant impact on the market. Strong growth indicates solid economic fundamentals, moderate inflation suggests prices won’t spiral out of control, and the ongoing rate cut cycle provides a favorable liquidity environment for risk assets. For those paying attention to macro trends, this is a signal worth monitoring.

Wow, Goldman Sachs' prediction is way too optimistic. Is it real or not? Just two rate cuts to save the market? I doubt it. If the Federal Reserve dares to cut rates, US Treasury yields will skyrocket, and what good will that do for risk assets? Strong growth + moderate inflation happening at the same time, I feel like it's more difficult than climbing to the sky. At this pace, the liquidity environment for risk assets is indeed good, but the premise is that Goldman Sachs hasn't miscalculated. I'm just worried that there will be another round of adjustments, as the market loves to operate in the opposite direction.

Still just talking big. Can two interest rate cuts really save the market? I just don't believe it.

Here we go again with the hype... How many times have they said there will be rate cuts? Are they really going to follow through?

Once again, Goldman Sachs' "perfect forecast"—strong growth + mild inflation + rate cuts—this combination is just too comfortable... Why do I always feel something's off? Two rate cuts sound good, but really, until June? Feels a bit far away. Are two 25bp cuts really enough? Can risk assets be fully supported? Did Goldman Sachs not deceive me this time? How did their predictions turn out last year... Wait, does this mean the crypto world is also about to take off? Is the era of abundant liquidity here? I wonder if entering now might be risky. Can anyone tell me how reliable these predictions are? Strong growth + mild inflation sounds like a fairy tale, haha. Good liquidity is great, but I'm worried it's just surface-level prosperity. But if rates really do cut, my short positions might get caught off guard... This batch of Goldman Sachs is a bit impressive, but I still believe the market is smarter than them.

Here comes another positive news from Goldman Sachs. Can we trust it this time, brother? Last time, what they said about controlled inflation was proven wrong.

Here we go again... Strong growth + mild inflation + interest rate cuts. Who would believe such a perfect story? Thinking that two interest rate cuts will save the market? I think it's more like covering up something. Hearing about abundant liquidity has become tiresome; it's better to see how retail accounts are doing. I don't really trust what Goldman Sachs says; history has proven it too many times. Let's wait until the interest rates are actually cut; anything else is just talking to no avail.
