Hedge fund long positions continue to outperform as turnover falls
Hedge fund portfolio turnover continues to fall but the record of long position outperformance
persists. Our Hedge Fund VIP list beat the S&P 500 by 900 bp in 2013 (41% vs. 32%) and has posted
a positive absolute YTD return (1.2%) while the S&P 500 declined modestly (-0.2%). Activist funds
have returned 40% during the past two years vs. 23% for the typical equity hedge fund. More than
25 activist campaigns have been launched YTD. This report analyzes 778 hedge funds with $1.8
trillion of gross equity positions ($1.2 trillion long and $570 billion short) at the start of 2014.

Goldman Sachs Hedge Fund Trend Monitor
This Hedge Fund Trend Monitor analyzes 778 hedge funds with $1.8 trillion of gross
equity positions ($1.2 trillion long and $570 billion short). Our analysis of hedge fund
positions at the start of 1Q 2014 is based on 13-F filings as of February 14, 2014. We list 9
conclusions below.
1. VERY IMPORTANT POSITIONS: Our Hedge Fund VIP list (Bloomberg: <GSTHHVIP>)
continues to outperform in 2014 following 900 bp of excess return in 2013 (41% vs.
32%). The basket contains the 50 stocks that appear most frequently among the top 10
holdings of fundamentally-driven hedge fund portfolios. The VIP list has returned 1.2% YTD,
140 bp better than the S&P 500. Top 5 stocks: GM, GOOG, AAPL, AIG, and HTZ. Turnover in
our VIP basket was below its historical average, with 13 new constituents: AAL, AGO, COLE,
ENDP, GILD, HCA, LAMR, LBTYK, NRF, OCN, STZ, TMUS, and VC. See page 8.
2. ACTIVISM: The number of activist campaigns has risen by 23% during the past two
years but remains below the prior peak of 2007 and 2008. We expect activism to
continue in 2014, with 25 campaigns already launched YTD. Activist hedge funds have
posted returns of 40% during the past two years compared with a 23% return for the typical
equity hedge fund. Three of our VIP constituents have open campaigns: EBAY, YHOO, TWC.
3. TURNOVER: Turnover of hedge fund positions continues to drop, falling to a record
low of 28% in 4Q as fund portfolios remain static. The turnover of the largest quartile of
holdings also fell to an all-time low of 14%. The average fund holds 63% of long assets in
its top 10 positions compared with 31% for the average mutual fund. See page 20.
4. RISK: We estimate hedge funds in aggregate operate 54% net long at the portfolio
level, the highest ratio in at least a decade. Risk appetite by this metric dipped modestly
in mid-2013 but climbed to new highs along with the market to start 2014. See page 14.
5. CONCENTRATION: Our basket of the 20 Most Concentrated hedge fund stocks
(Bloomberg ticker: <GSTHHFHI>) continues to outperform the S&P 500. We define
concentration as the share of equity cap owned by hedge funds. Since 2001, the strategy
has outperformed the S&P 500 71% of the time by an average of 262 bp per quarter.
Following 1700 bp of outperformance in 2013, the basket continues to lead the S&P 500 in
2014 (+1.8% vs. -0.3%). Four new constituents: ALLE, APD, QEP, and CVC. See page 12.
6. PERFORMANCE: Hedge funds returned an average of -0.5% YTD through January,
with 82% of funds outperforming the S&P 500 (-3.5%). Last year the typical fund posted
a 9.8% return compared with 32% for the S&P 500 and average large-cap core mutual fund.
See page 4.
7. ETFs: Hedge funds hold large positions in EM equity, volatility, gold, and bond ETFs.
Hedge funds generally use ETFs more as a hedging tool than directional investment
vehicles, and most of these positions reflect net shorts. ETFs represent 3% of long holdings,
the lowest since 1Q 2010. See page 21.
8. SHORT INTEREST: The S&P 500 short interest ratio reached 3 days to cover in 4Q
2013, the highest since mid-2007. Aggregate dollars of short interest outstanding hit
record levels in late 2013 as the S&P 500 reached record highs. The market rally combined
with low trading volumes drove the S&P 500 short interest ratio to a six-year high. Page 15.
9. VERY IMPORTANT SHORT POSITIONS: Our Hedge Fund Very Important Short
Position basket (<GSTHVISP>) provides a more effective short than the S&P 500. The
basket contains the 50 S&P 500 stocks with the highest total dollar value of short interest
outstanding that are not in our VIP long basket. Our long VIP/short VISP pair trade has
mirrored the HFR Equity Hedge Index with an average quarterly return of 148 bp vs. 141 bp
since 2001, but with a higher Sharpe Ratio (0.46 vs. 0.27). See page 11.

Hedge funds held steady as the market pulled back in January
The typical hedge fund generated a return of -0.5% in January, compared with -3.5%
return for both the S&P 500 and the average large-cap core mutual fund (Exhibit 1).
82% of hedge funds outperformed the S&P 500, and one half posted positive absolute
returns. Long/short equity funds returned -0.3%, in line with the average across strategies.
The most popular hedge fund long positions outperformed as the market pulled back
in early 2014, demonstrating funds stockpicking ability as well as position conviction.
Our Hedge Fund VIP list (Bloomberg ticker: <GSTHHVIP>) and High Concentration basket
(<GSTHHFHI>) each outperformed the S&P 500 by more than 100 bp in January, despite
the 6% risk-off pullback inspired by EM fears and weak economic data.

as of January 31, 2014

Top hedge fund long positions also posted exceptionally strong returns in 2013, but
shorts hampered overall returns. While the VIP basket returned 41% in 2013, the typical
hedge fund returned 9.8%. Fewer than 5% of funds outperformed the S&P 500 last year.

Activist campaigns have steadily increased
Investor activism has increased in recent years. The number of Russell 3000 activist
campaigns rose by 6% to 129 in 2013, following a 15% increase in 2012. However, while the
S&P 500 index trades close to an all-time high, the number of announced activist
campaigns remains below 2007 and 2008 levels (see Exhibit 3).
Hedge funds participated in 75% of activist campaigns in 2013, the highest share in at
least a decade. In a typical year, hedge funds participate in 64% of campaigns (see Exhibit
4). Three constituents of our Hedge Fund VIP list have open campaigns: eBay (EBAY),
Yahoo! (YHOO) and Time Warner Cable (TWC).
We expect the number of activist campaigns will remain high in 2014. 25 campaigns
have already been announced since the start of the year, more than the 22 campaigns
announced during the first two months of 2013.

The majority of campaigns involve maximizing shareholder value or board
representation/control. In 2013, maximizing shareholder value was the purpose of 43% of
campaigns. Methods include strategic mergers, spin-offs, leverage adjustment, dividends,
and share repurchases. Board representation accounted for another 34% of campaigns.
Activism on larger companies is on the rise. Historically, Russell 1000 firms accounted
for 32% of activism in the Russell 3000, in line with its share of stocks in the index (34%,
1013/3008). But in 2013, constituents of the Russell 1000 accounted for 38% of campaigns.

Performance of activist-targeted stocks has been stronger in recent years. Between
2007 and 2009, the median stock underperformed its Russell 3000 sector during the three
months following a campaign announcement. After 2009, activist-targeted stocks
outperformed their sector by 100-350 bp. The median activist campaign lasts four months.
Post-announcement gains are strongest in the first month. Median sector-relative
performance in during months two and three is typically flat to slightly negative.

As the number of activist campaigns and the size of targeted stocks grow, non-
activist investors should focus on the ability of targeted stocks to sustain returns
following a campaign announcement.
Recent campaigns have been more likely to outperform over extended periods of
time. While post-announcement outperformance typically decays over longer periods of
time, sector-relative outperformance has shown signs of greater endurance in recent years.
See Portfolio Manager Toolkit: An Investors Cornucopia: Activism, Inventories, The Search
for Value & Margins (November 12, 2013) for more information.
Unsurprisingly, the outperformance of activism targets is evident in the performance
of activist hedge funds. The HFR Activist Index rose by 21% in 2012, significantly higher
than the HFR Equity Hedge Index (+7%). While the Activist Index also outperformed the
Equity Hedge Index in 2013 (16% vs. 14%), both indices underperformed the Russell 3000
(+34%).
In January 2014, The HFR Activist Index returned -0.5% versus -0.9% for the HFR Equity
Hedge Index and -3% for the Russell 3000.
Exhibit 8: Activist funds outperformed equity hedge funds between 2012 and 2013
as of January 31, 2014

Note on methodology: For our analysis we utilize FactSets SharkRepellent database. The universe is
limited to Russell 3000 constituents at the time of campaign announcement. Campaign purposes are
limited to board control, board representation, director or officer removal, shareholder value
maximization, or corporate governance enhancement.

LONG HFR Activist Index /

Stocks that matter most: The hedge fund VIP list
Our hedge fund VIP list (Bloomberg ticker: <GSTHHVIP>) consists of stocks in which
fundamentally-driven hedge funds have a large stake. We define stocks that matter
most as the positions that appear most frequently among the top 10 holdings within
hedge fund portfolios. This specific approach yields a similar list of stocks as simply
choosing the largest aggregate long positions. For this analysis, we limit our universe to
hedge funds with 10 to 200 distinct equity positions in an attempt to isolate fundamentally-
driven investors from quantitative funds or funds that mirror private equity investments.
Our hedge fund VIP list offers investment ideas and tracks long exposure of hedge
funds. By construction, the VIP list identifies the 50 stocks whose performance will largely
influence the long side of many fundamentally driven hedge funds.
The basket of the 50 stocks that matter most has outperformed the S&P 500 by 76
bp on a quarterly basis since 2001, with a Sharpe ratio of 0.29. The VIP basket has
outperformed the S&P 500 by 140 bp (+1.2% vs. -0.3%) YTD through February 14. As
illustrated in Exhibit 9, the VIP basket outperformed the S&P 500 by more than 720 bp in
both 2012 and 2013 (23% vs. 16% in 2012; 41% vs. 34% in 2013).
From an implementation standpoint, the hedge fund VIP list offers an efficient vehicle
for investors seeking to follow the smart money based on 13-F filings. The VIP
basket has a large-cap bias with a median market capitalization of $39 billion compared
with $17 billion for S&P 500. Top constituents include GM, GOOG, AAPL, AIG, and HTZ.
Our hedge fund VIP basket is not sector-neutral to the S&P 500. The VIP list contains
stocks from eight of the ten sectors, with Utilities and Materials absent. The basket
overweights the Consumer Discretionary sector (28%) and underweights Energy (4%)
relative to the broad market index.
Turnover for the basket during 4Q 2013 was significantly below the historical average,
with 13 new stocks entering the VIP list compared with an average quarterly turnover of 17
stocks since 2001. New constituents are AAL, AGO, COLE, ENDP, GILD, HCA, LAMR, LBTYK,
NRF, OCN, STZ, TMUS, and VC (see Exhibit 10).

Estimating the short side: The Very Important Short Position list
Our Very Important Short Position (Bloomberg ticker: <GSTHVISP>) list tracks short
exposure of hedge funds. The equal-weighted basket consists of 50 S&P 500 constituents
with the highest total dollar value of short interest outstanding. The VISP basket excludes
companies in our long VIP List and stocks with more than 10% of float-adjusted shares held
short. The VISP basket has a large-cap bias with a median market capitalization of $74
billion compared with $17 billion for the S&P 500 and $39 billion for the VIP List.
Constituents of this basket are not based on 13-F holdings and this is not a basket of
stocks most held short. The median stock has a higher value of short interest compared
with the median S&P 500 company ($1.4 billion vs. $0.4 billion) but similar short interest as
a percent of float-adjusted shares (about 2% for each). The top five VISP constituents are
INTC, T, VZ, XOM, and IBM (see Exhibit 13).
We use the total dollar value of short interest outstanding as an estimate of short
portfolio holdings. Short positions in large-cap stocks can still be significant on a total
dollar value basis even though the size of these stocks typically leads to lower short
interest as a percentage of shares outstanding. We did not adjust our analysis to take into
account the impact of convertible arbitrage strategies on short interest outstanding.
However, when we incorporated these positions it did not significantly affect the results or
the composition of the basket.
The long GSTHHVIP/short S&P 500 pair is one method of tracking hedge fund
performance as it replicates the long/short nature of fund holdings, but it is a proxy
with shortcomings. The Hedge Fund VIP List consists of an equal weighted basket of 50
stocks whereas the S&P 500 is market cap weighted. S&P 500 stocks with weights greater
than 2%, such as Apple (AAPL), are implicitly underweight even if held on the long side. It
is also a blunter tool, disregarding information about shorts disclosed by the exchanges.
By addressing these issues, we can create a better approximation of hedge fund short-side
performance.
The performance of a long GSTHHVIP / short GSTHVISP pair tracks hedge fund
performance better than the long GSTHHVIP / short S&P 500 pair. The long/short VIP
pair has generated an average quarterly return of 148 bp (5.9% annualized) since 2001,
close to the average return of the HFR Equity Hedge index. The Sharpe ratio of the pair has
been 0.46, higher than the Equity Hedge index Sharpe ratio of 0.27.

The impact of hedge funds: Look at the concentrated positions
We define concentration as the share of market capitalization owned in aggregate
by hedge funds. The strategy of buying the 20 most concentrated stocks has a strong track
record over more than 10 years. Since 2001, the strategy has outperformed the market 71%
of the time by an average of 262 bp per quarter (not annualized).
Exhibit 14: Hedge fund concentration baskets versus the S&P 500
as of February 14, 2014

Source: Lionshares via FactSet, IDC, and Goldman Sachs Global Investment Research.
The high hedge fund concentration strategy works in an upward trending market but
tends to perform poorly during choppy or flat markets. The stocks in the basket tend to
be mid-caps (at the lower end of the S&P 500 capitalization distribution), which
outperformed large-caps from 2004 to 2007, contributing to the attractive back-test results.
The baskets are not sector neutral versus the S&P 500.
The most concentrated stocks performed exceptionally well in 2012 and 2013. After
underperforming the S&P 500 by 400 bp in 2011 (-2% vs. +2%), our High Concentration
basket outperformed by 800 bp in 2012 (+24% vs. +16%) and 1700 bp in 2013 (+51% vs.
+34%).
Four stocks entered the most concentrated basket this quarter: ALLE, APD, QEP, and
CVC.

Exploring hedge fund net exposure
Short positions shed light on the other side of fund portfolios
We combined $1.2 trillion of single-stock and ETF long holdings in 13-F filings of 778
hedge funds with our estimate of hedge fund short positions. We estimate hedge funds
accounted for 85%, or $570 billion, of the $671 billion in single-stock, ETF and market index
short interest positions filed with exchanges as of December 31, 2013. Our analysis
suggests that hedge funds operate 54% net long (net/long), a new record high. We estimate
roughly 15% of short positioning is conducted via ETFs with 9% occurring at the broad
index level.
Short positions offer more comprehensive insight to hedge fund sector tilts. Our
analysis of short interest data suggests that hedge fund sector net exposure may differ
from what 13-F filings of long positions would indicate.
Allocation differences between long and short positions skew sector positioning
relative to the Russell 3000 beyond what long holdings alone would suggest. Hedge
fund long exposure shows funds are overweight Consumer Discretionary relative to the
Russell 3000 (21% versus 14%). Short interest data indicates Consumer Discretionary
accounts for 18% of all short positions. Combining long and short data, hedge funds
appear to hold a 24% net weighting in Consumer Discretionary and are more overweight
relative to the Russell 3000 than long exposure suggests. Similar portfolio skew occurs in
the overweight of the Materials sector and underweight of the Information Technology
sector, among others.

Exhibit 19: The biggest discrepancy between long and short portfolio positioning is in Consumer Discretionary
Holdings as of December 31, 2013; Pricing as of February 14, 2014

We believe hedge funds account for the vast majority of short positions. The steady
growth of shorts in the US equity market from 2002 to 2008 accompanied the rise in hedge
fund assets (Exhibit 20). We estimate that hedge funds account for 85% of all short
positions. Short interest remained at about 2.0% of market cap in 4Q 2013, where it has
hovered since mid-2012. The short interest ratio (days to cover) rose to 3.0 days, the
highest since mid-2007, as the market rallied but volumes remained low.
We acknowledge certain limitations to our hedge fund short position analysis. There
is time delay, as short interest is filed bi-weekly with the exchanges and released with a 10-
day delay. The short interest information we have represents positions reported by US
broker/dealers. Broker/dealers incorporated outside the US do not have to report their
positions. Swaps and other derivatives are also not captured in this analysis.

Sectors: Funds keep steady allocations
Commodity sectors remain overweights; Health Care underweight
During 4Q 2013, average hedge fund long sector allocations remained largely
unchanged from 3Q 2013. While allocations to some sectors shifted by as much as 50 bp,
the overall over- and underweight positioning and ranking of sectors remained constant.
Consumer Discretionary and Consumer Staples are consistently the largest over- and
underweight sector positions relative to the Russell 3000, and those biases remained this
quarter (see Exhibit 22). We recognize hedge funds do not manage assets based on a
benchmark, but understanding and interpreting sector tilts requires an orientation to some
index.
Hedge funds added exposure to Health Care but remained underweight. Hedge funds
reduced exposure to the Energy, Financials, and Consumer Staples sectors.
Mutual funds also lowered exposure to the Energy sector. Mutual funds and hedge
funds both raised allocations to Health Care and Industrials and lowered exposure to
Utilities but made opposite adjustments to exposure in most other sectors.
Sub-sectors: What hedge funds are buying and selling
We estimate the dollars invested by hedge funds in various sub-sectors based on
change in ownership during the quarter. Sub-sectors in which hedge funds added to
positions underperformed sub-sectors in which they sold during 4Q (10% vs. 12%).

Note: Based on analysis of 778 hedge funds with $1.2 trillion of single-stock equity assets. Mutual fund holdings represent an aggregate multi-cap core portfolio.

Size: Large-cap stocks account for almost 50% of typical fund
Small-cap stocks compose 33% of the average funds portfolio
The typical hedge fund allocates 33% of its assets to small-cap stocks (Russell 2000)
and 46% to large-cap stocks (largest 500 in the Russell 1000). Mid-cap stocks (bottom
half of the Russell 1000) account for 20% of the average funds portfolio (Exhibit 25).
On an aggregate asset basis, hedge funds allocate just 17% of their assets to small-
cap stocks, while 63% is allocated to large caps. The difference between the average
and the aggregate suggests that the hedge funds with the largest assets under
management target large-cap stocks.
For comparison, mutual funds invest an average of 11% of their portfolios in small-
cap stocks and 62% in large-cap stocks. Similarly, on an aggregate asset basis 9% of
assets are invested in small-cap stocks and 63% is in large-cap stocks.
Exhibit 24: Small-caps have generally performed in line with large-caps since 2006

Hedge fund portfolio density and position turnover
Hedge fund returns are highly dependent on the performance of a few key stocks. The
typical hedge fund has an average of 63% of its long-equity assets invested in its 10 largest
positions compared with 31% for the typical large-cap mutual fund, 22% for the average
small-cap mutual fund, 18% for the S&P 500 and just 3% for the Russell 2000 Index.

Hedge funds and ETFs: Hedging tools, not investment vehicles
Hedge funds use ETFs more as a hedging tool than as a directional investment
vehicle, based on our analysis of 13-F and short interest filings. We estimate that hedge
funds hold $143 billion in gross exposure to ETFs compared with $1.7 trillion of gross
exposure to single-stocks. ETFs represent 3% of long holdings, down from nearly 6% in 1Q
2009 and the lowest level since 1Q 2010 (Exhibit 28).
The $109 billion of short ETF positions accounts for 76% of the hedge fund gross ETF
exposure. In contrast, single-stock short positions ($486 billion) represent 29% of hedge
fund gross single-stock positions. The most shorted ETFs tend to be index hedges.
Commodity-related, bond funds, and Emerging Market ETFs appear to make up the
majority of ETFs that hedge funds utilize (see Exhibit 29). Specific notable short positions
include the Energy and Utilities sectors, real estate, and 20+ year Treasuries.

Appendix A: Drawbacks of our hedge fund holding analysis
Data limitations
One weakness of our analysis is that it excludes any synthetic positions that hedge
funds may create through the use of derivative contracts (options, swaps, futures).
Such financial instruments are not required to be disclosed in public filings.
We track both natural and leveraged long positions based on filings of hedge fund holdings.
However, a hedge fund could offset a long position that we are able to monitor with a
synthetic short position in options or futures on the underlying stock or an index of similar
stocks that we currently are not able to monitor because the data on such trades and
positions is not disclosed. These positions could either magnify or reduce the conclusions
of our Hedge Fund Trend Monitor.
Lack of international holdings
Hedge funds are not required to include foreign holdings in their 13-F filings.
Consequently, our analysis may not capture all the long equity positions of hedge funds.
While we do not believe this lack of data significantly affects our analysis of holdings by
sector and capitalization size, we may overestimate the density of hedge fund portfolios.
Incomplete reporting of short positions
Our data is limited to publicly disclosed short interest statistics released by the
exchanges. Only US broker-dealers are required to report short positions to these
exchanges, so we miss any shorts held in overseas accounts. We assume that hedge funds
account for 85% of all short interest in the market and that the short side of hedge fund
portfolios mirrors the overall short market in terms of sector allocation.
Timeliness
Another potential weakness of our analysis relates to the timeliness of the reported
data. For example, the equity holdings for the 778 hedge funds we studied were based on
13-F filings of positions owned as of December 31, 2013, although most of these filings
were not made public until mid-February 2014.
Importantly, we believe our analysis of December 31, 2013 hedge fund holdings based
on filings made in mid-February 2014 is probably more reflective of actual current
holdings than many market participants are inclined to believe.
Hedge fund holdings turnover is lower than most expect. Most securities (72%) that
were in hedge fund portfolios on September 30, 2013, also appeared in portfolios on
December 31, 2013. Because the overall holdings picture was surprisingly constant, we
think it is reasonable for us to believe that the most recent holdings data is not so out-of-
date as some might suggest.

Appendix D: GS Portfolio Strategy Baskets on Bloomberg
Basket Construction and Constituent Weighting
Our hedge fund baskets are equally weighted at rebalance. Stocks with higher returns will
increase their weight in the basket, while stocks with lower returns will fall. Our baskets are
automatically adjusted for dividends and corporate actions. Dividends for a company
increase that companys weight within the basket. If a company is acquired, that
constituents weight at closing in the basket will be reallocated to the remaining
constituents in proportion to their current basket weights. Our hedge fund baskets are not
designed to be sector-neutral to the S&P 500.

Ratings, coverage groups and views and related definitions
Buy (B), Neutral (N), Sell (S) -Analysts recommend stocks as Buys or Sells for inclusion on various regional Investment Lists. Being assigned a Buy
or Sell on an Investment List is determined by a stock's return potential relative to its coverage group as described below. Any stock not assigned as
a Buy or a Sell on an Investment List is deemed Neutral. Each regional Investment Review Committee manages various regional Investment Lists to a
February 20, 2014 United States

Goldman Sachs Global Investment Research 40
global guideline of 25%-35% of stocks as Buy and 10%-15% of stocks as Sell; however, the distribution of Buys and Sells in any particular coverage
group may vary as determined by the regional Investment Review Committee. Regional Conviction Buy and Sell lists represent investment
recommendations focused on either the size of the potential return or the likelihood of the realization of the return.
Return potential represents the price differential between the current share price and the price target expected during the time horizon associated
with the price target. Price targets are required for all covered stocks. The return potential, price target and associated time horizon are stated in each
report adding or reiterating an Investment List membership.
Coverage groups and views: A list of all stocks in each coverage group is available by primary analyst, stock and coverage group at
http://www.gs.com/research/hedge.html. The analyst assigns one of the following coverage views which represents the analyst's investment outlook
on the coverage group relative to the group's historical fundamentals and/or valuation. Attractive (A). The investment outlook over the following 12
months is favorable relative to the coverage group's historical fundamentals and/or valuation. Neutral (N). The investment outlook over the
following 12 months is neutral relative to the coverage group's historical fundamentals and/or valuation. Cautious (C). The investment outlook over
the following 12 months is unfavorable relative to the coverage group's historical fundamentals and/or valuation.
Not Rated (NR). The investment rating and target price have been removed pursuant to Goldman Sachs policy when Goldman Sachs is acting in an
advisory capacity in a merger or strategic transaction involving this company and in certain other circumstances. Rating Suspended (RS). Goldman
Sachs Research has suspended the investment rating and price target for this stock, because there is not a sufficient fundamental basis for
determining, or there are legal, regulatory or policy constraints around publishing, an investment rating or target. The previous investment rating and
price target, if any, are no longer in effect for this stock and should not be relied upon. Coverage Suspended (CS). Goldman Sachs has suspended
coverage of this company. Not Covered (NC). Goldman Sachs does not cover this company. Not Available or Not Applicable (NA). The
information is not available for display or is not applicable. Not Meaningful (NM). The information is not meaningful and is therefore excluded.

General disclosures
This research is for our clients only. Other than disclosures relating to Goldman Sachs, this research is based on current public information that we
consider reliable, but we do not represent it is accurate or complete, and it should not be relied on as such. We seek to update our research as
appropriate, but various regulations may prevent us from doing so. Other than certain industry reports published on a periodic basis, the large
majority of reports are published at irregular intervals as appropriate in the analyst's judgment.
Goldman Sachs conducts a global full-service, integrated investment banking, investment management, and brokerage business. We have
investment banking and other business relationships with a substantial percentage of the companies covered by our Global Investment Research
Division. Goldman, Sachs & Co., the United States broker dealer, is a member of SIPC (http://www.sipc.org).
Our salespeople, traders, and other professionals may provide oral or written market commentary or trading strategies to our clients and our
proprietary trading desks that reflect opinions that are contrary to the opinions expressed in this research. Our asset management area, our
proprietary trading desks and investing businesses may make investment decisions that are inconsistent with the recommendations or views
expressed in this research.
The analysts named in this report may have from time to time discussed with our clients, including Goldman Sachs salespersons and traders, or may
discuss in this report, trading strategies that reference catalysts or events that may have a near-term impact on the market price of the equity
securities discussed in this report, which impact may be directionally counter to the analyst's published price target expectations for such stocks. Any
such trading strategies are distinct from and do not affect the analyst's fundamental equity rating for such stocks, which rating reflects a stock's
return potential relative to its coverage group as described herein.
We and our affiliates, officers, directors, and employees, excluding equity and credit analysts, will from time to time have long or short positions in,
act as principal in, and buy or sell, the securities or derivatives, if any, referred to in this research.
This research is not an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any security in any jurisdiction where such an offer or solicitation would be
illegal. It does not constitute a personal recommendation or take into account the particular investment objectives, financial situations, or needs of
individual clients. Clients should consider whether any advice or recommendation in this research is suitable for their particular circumstances and, if
appropriate, seek professional advice, including tax advice. The price and value of investments referred to in this research and the income from them
may fluctuate. Past performance is not a guide to future performance, future returns are not guaranteed, and a loss of original capital may occur.
Fluctuations in exchange rates could have adverse effects on the value or price of, or income derived from, certain investments.
Certain transactions, including those involving futures, options, and other derivatives, give rise to substantial risk and are not suitable for all investors.
Investors should review current options disclosure documents which are available from Goldman Sachs sales representatives or at
http://www.theocc.com/about/publications/character-risks.jsp. Transaction costs may be significant in option strategies calling for multiple purchase
and sales of options such as spreads. Supporting documentation will be supplied upon request.

site visit or meeting.
