As earnings season gets underway, Wall Street appears alive and well. Industry giants JPMorgan Chase, Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, and Bank of America reported a record $134 billion in trading revenue in 2025. 2026 could follow suit.
When discussing the upcoming year in the company’s earnings call, Goldman Sachs CEO noted “the likely scenario is it is a very, very good year for M&A and capital markets activity.”
At New Constructs, we give our clients the tools needed to profit on this “very, very good” outlook.
Gone are the days where investors have to buy whatever Wall Street recommends (which is practically the entire market). Instead, we narrow the market down to the few, elite stocks that carry the rest.
As earnings season continues, the market is bracing for millions of pages of documents, 10-Ks, footnotes, and disclosures that most investors can’t possibly read. This fresh data will reshape hundreds of stock ratings. That’s why on January 21st at 1pm Eastern I want to share something we’ve been working on that’s absolutely groundbreaking. This is your chance to stress-test your portfolio for 2026 before the market does it for you. Reserve your spot here.

4Q25 Earnings Preview:
We call earnings season “propaganda” season because Wall Street insiders make up their own numbers to help them sell more stock. Rather than rely on flawed GAAP or Street Earnings, we use FinSights, our AI agent built by Google Cloud, to find companies most likely to miss consensus earnings.
