What can you say about this crown jewel of brokerage and investment banks that hasn't already been said?
Goldman Sachs (NYSE: GS) is, by far, the most prestigious, as well as the most politically-connected, bank on Wall Street. Its success over both the fat years and the lean years has been difficult to ignore.
So it's no wonder then that shares of this iconic financial giant are up nearly 100% over the past five years, while stocks that comprise the Dow Jones Financial Services index were down 11% over those same five years.
If you want to own the best-of-breed in the financial sector, then Goldman Sachs is the high-priced bargain stock for you.
