Wall Street could get a boost from $1 trillion in buybacks, Goldman says Investors have been hoping Donald Trump's return to the White House next week will boost the U.S. stock market, while Goldman Sachs sees stocks benefiting from the biggest expected company buybacks in at least five years.

Employees give hedge fund diversity and inclusion lowest score in four years, says Reboot Employee perceptions of how hedge funds handle diversity and inclusion have fallen to their lowest level since before 2021, when Reboot Financial Services began its annual report, the financial services campaigning group said on Tuesday.

More than 100 hedge fund workers in the UK were asked to score how they felt about actions their workplace took to improve ethnic and racial diversity and inclusion.

These hedge funds earned their lowest score in four years.
