‘Goldilocks' is ignoring the three bears, Wall Street analysts say
Markets are mostly maintaining their all-time highs despite Trump's tariffs, threats to Fed independence, and analysts reducing their expectations for U.S. GDP growth. Investors are instead enjoying a 'Goldilocks scenario,' Goldman Sachs says. Barclays agrees: 'Another week, another tariff salvo, and another market shrug.' S&P 500 futures are barely moving this morning after the index itself hit an all-time high yesterday, poking its head above 6,300 for the first time ever and closing at 6,305.6. In Asia and Europe, there was a small amount of profit-taking earlier today but nothing to be concerned about—equities remain mostly near their record peaks globally. There is no excuse for this behavior, arguably. There are three bearish indicators that ought to be scaring investors right now: The U.S. is imposing a trade tax on the entire planet; President Trump has threatened the independence of the Federal Reserve; and Goldman Sachs just moved down its forecast for U.S. GDP in the second half of the year (to 1.1%). But, as Goldman's Christian Mueller-Glissmann told clients in a recent note seen by Fortune, the markets appear to be ignoring this and enjoying a 'Goldilocks scenario' instead. 'Another week, another tariff salvo, and another market shrug,' Barclays analyst Christian Keller et al. told their clients. 'Resilient US consumer data and robust Q2 earnings for now dominate over initial signs of tariff effects on CPI, continuing threats of tariff escalations and increasing political pressures on the Fed.' There are reasons to worry that stocks might be overpriced. Deutsche Bank's Henry Allen pointed out recently that the Fed Funds futures speculators are betting in a way that suggests they expect an upcoming recession. 'If we look at Fed funds futures as of last night's close, we can see that just over 100bps of cuts are priced in over the next year to August 2026. That comes on top of 100bps already delivered between Sep-Dec 2024. So, if realised, that would be just over 200bps of cuts in two years. But historically, getting 200bps of cuts in two years has almost always required a recession,' he wrote in a research note. Maybe. It's worth remembering that the Fed Funds futures market changes daily, sometimes moving quite dramatically. These investors may not literally be pricing in a recession. But they are certainly betting that Fed Chair Jerome Powell will deliver cuts to interest rates sooner or later. More cheap money is good for stocks, and that's what stocks seem to be reflecting right now. Here's a snapshot of the action prior to the opening bell in New York: S&P 500 futures were off 0.13% this morning after the index hit a new high, at 6,305.60, up 0.14% yesterday. The S&P has never been above 6,300 before. The UK's FTSE 100 was clinging on above 9,000, at 9,008.61 in early trading. STOXX Europe 600 was down 0.44% in early trading. Japan's Nikkei 225 was down 0.11%. China's CSI 300 Index was up 0.8%. Bitcoin is still above $118K. This story was originally featured on

Lockheed Martin Under Intense Wall Street Pressure On Mounting Program Risks, Q2 Woes
Lockheed Martin Corp. (NYSE:) faces growing pressure from Wall Street after delivering mixed second-quarter results and absorbing nearly $1.6 billion in charges across key segments. Goldman Sachs analyst Noah Poponak reiterated a Sell rating on Lockheed Martin and lowered his 12-month price forecast to $398 from $406. He pointed to ongoing problems that could hurt profits, reduce cash flow, and make future earnings less predictable. Poponak noted that the latest charges in classified Aeronautics and helicopter programs within Rotary and Mission Systems (RMS) reduce segment margin expectations and may drag free cash flow lower beyond also highlighted risks tied to NGAD program losses and uncertainty around future F-35 funding, both of which threaten a substantial share of Lockheed's earnings base. Despite continued demand in missile defense and other high-profile programs, Poponak believes Lockheed is entering a more challenging phase. He cut his 2025-2028 EPS estimates and lowered his 12-month price target to $398 from $406, while maintaining a target P/E multiple of 0.81x relative to the S&P 500. Other Analysts Also Turned Cautious Following The Results: Susquehanna's Charles Minervino maintained a Positive rating and lowered his price forecast from $550 to $490. RBC Capital's Ken Herbert kept a Sector Perform rating and cut his forecast from $480 to $440. Truist's Michael Ciarmoli downgraded the stock from Buy to Hold and reduced his forecast from $554 to $440. Baird's Peter Arment maintained an Outperform rating while trimming his forecast from $540 to $500. JP Morgan's Seth Seifman maintained an Overweight rating while lowering the price forecast from $520 to $465. Earnings Recap: Margins Hit by Legacy Program Charges Lockheed reported net sales of $18.16 billion, slightly missing estimates, while adjusted EPS of $7.29 beat the $6.63 consensus. However, GAAP earnings fell to $1.46 per share, down sharply from $6.63 a year ago due to charges related to cost overruns and schedule slippage in legacy programs. Operating margin collapsed to 4.1% from 11.9%, and free cash flow turned negative at $150 million. The company reaffirmed its 2025 sales guidance of $73.75 billion to $74.75 billion and free cash flow outlook of $6.6 billion to $6.8 billion, but lowered its GAAP EPS forecast to $21.70-$22.00, from $27+ previously. IRS Dispute and 'Golden Dome' Talks Adding to the pressure, Lockheed's CFO reportedly confirmed that the IRS is seeking $4.6 billion in additional income taxes. According to Reuters, the company is challenging the claim through the IRS Independent Office of Appeals and is prepared to pursue judicial action if necessary. Meanwhile, CEO James Taiclet confirmed discussions with U.S. officials over former President Trump's proposed $175 billion 'Golden Dome' missile shield. While no contracts have been awarded, Taiclet said Lockheed is 'all in' on the concept. Lockheed Martin reached a 52-week high of $618.95 on Oct. 21, 2024, and a 52-week low of $410.11 on July 22, 2025, the day after it reported second-quarter results, marking an approximate 34% decline from its peak.
