Who is the biggest shareholder of Goldman Sachs? Volkswagen Holdings?

It is owned by the public, and few individuals in the United States directly hold shares. Are all legal persons holding shares. I don't know who the largest shareholder is, but what is certain is that the largest shareholder does not hold shares. Buffett bought $900 million in Goldman Sachs preferred stock during the financial crisis (but not personally, Berkshire Hathaway is a legal person). It is said that it will be converted into common stock, and this shareholding will definitely advance to 10. Not only Goldman Sachs, but almost all investments in the US financial market are institutional investors. The largest institutional investor is pension fund, the second largest is mutual fund, and the third largest is insurance company. But in the end, it is the American ordinary people (mainly the middle class)-to know the foundation of the middle class and even the United States, the American dream is the dream of the American middle class. A senior government official like Gary Locke can't represent the American dream. In short, there are many forms of investment companies in the United States. The model is to raise funds from the public and then turn the door to invest. Money is still public money. For example, Fidelity Investment Group, the largest fund group in the United States, can be said to be a heavyweight player in the American financial market, and its fund buyers are mainly middle class. Generally speaking, in the United States, the rich rarely share the same fund. They all invest in private placement, hedge funds, venture capital and some special customized and exotic investment products, but the overall scale of these funds is far less than that of mutual funds and pension funds. In America, the financial market is very developed. You will feel that buying financial products in America is just like buying food and daily necessities. There are too many things and personalized customization, and the capital efficiency is super high. If you have the opportunity, you must go to the United States to experience this financial and commercial culture!

The Morgan family, the Warburg family, the Rockefeller family and, of course, the Rothschild family were all over a hundred years ago. Today's modern capitalist system and previous capitalism can be said to be completely different. Why is there such a conspiracy theory now? Goldman Sachs was founded by two German immigrants, Goldman Sachs and Sachs. Today, it has almost nothing to do with them, and Lehman Brothers and Lehman Family have nothing to do with it. In the early days of monopoly capitalism, the capital market was mainly the territory of big consortia, and the general public did not participate. However, in the contemporary capitalist society, public capital began to enter the financial field, which immediately diluted the consortium capital like a flood, but the influence of the so-called consortium was greatly reduced-in fact, this is the power of the masses. Today, the energy of investment banks is not because of the scale of their own capital, but because they are at a key node and play a key role in connecting public capital and financial markets.
