Summary

  • Goldman Sachs strategists said capital-intensive companies are likely to post solid earnings this season, setting up further gains over peers tied more to human or digital assets.
  • The call rests on a view that investors remain under-positioned for a shift back toward physical assets, infrastructure and industrial capacity as strategically important parts of the economy.
  • Guillaume Jaisson and colleagues framed the expected outperformance as an earnings-driven extension of a broader market rotation toward asset-heavy businesses.
