Goldman Sachs: $700B in IPOs and Follow-Ons Won't Overwhelm Stock Market in 2026

According to Goldman Sachs chief US equity strategist Ben Snider, the bank believes this year's combined IPOs and follow-on share issuances totaling approximately $700 billion will not overwhelm the stock market. The analyst noted that while the dollar magnitude sounds large, it represents only about 1% of total equity market capitalization—lower than the long-term average and in line with 2015–2019 levels. Snider cited three main reasons: the number of deals remains historically normal, market size has grown over time, and corporate demand remains robust, with share buybacks expected to exceed $1 trillion this year, offsetting supply pressure.
