As the third-quarter earnings season approaches, Goldman Sachs has issued a note identifying key stock opportunities for investors looking to profit <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41255250/banks-gear-up-for-earnings-season-15-top-stock-picks-including-citigroup-morgan-stanley-and-truist">from financial results.</a>
Analyst John Marshall and his team shared their insights on Thursday, highlighting 18 stocks that could benefit from upward earnings revisions and seven stocks likely to face downward revisions.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">The &#8216;Stock Picker&#8217;s Year&#8217;: 10% Upside In S&amp;P 500</h3>
Goldman Sachs analysts call 2024 "the year of the stock picker," emphasizing the importance of selective investing in a volatile earnings environment.
According to the investment bank&#8217;s latest projections, the average S&amp;P 500 stock could see a 10% upside over the next 12 months. 
"We see relief rally potential," Marshall stated in his note. "Directional positioning in the options market is balanced, a much better set-up than this time last quarter."
The analysts also observed that activity in options markets, both from hedge funds and retail traders, has decreased recently, signaling a "wait-and-see" approach as investors prepare for third-quarter earnings reports and the upcoming U.S. elections.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Earnings Season Volatility Remains Elevated</h3>
Goldman Sachs highlighted that single-stock volatility surrounding earnings events remains at a 14-year high. 
This trend, driven by critical market debates on topics like artificial intelligence, interest rates, and the upcoming election, is expected to continue through the remainder of the year.
&#8220;We expect earnings day moves to remain elevated as most of the key debates for the market have winners and losers in the equity space,&#8221; the note added. 
With this heightened volatility, the firm continues to recommend options-based strategies, advising investors to consider buying options ahead of earnings events and selling options between earnings periods to capitalize on price movements.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">18 Stocks Goldman Sachs Is Bullish On For Third-Quarter Earnings</h3>
Goldman Sachs&#8217; analysts have identified 18 stocks they believe are primed for upside as earnings revisions could be favorable. These stocks span a variety of sectors, from energy and financials to healthcare and technology.

Cheniere Energy Partners, L.P.&nbsp;(NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cqp#NYSE">CQP</a>) has witnessed upward earnings estimate revisions for 2024 and 2025 in the past 30 days.
<h3>Factors Driving the Stock</h3>
<h3>Favorable Style Score</h3>
Cheniere Partners has an impressive&nbsp;Value Score&nbsp;of B. Value Score helps find stocks that are undervalued. Back-tested results have shown that stocks with a favorable Value Score, combined with a solid Zacks Rank, are the best investment bets.
<h3>Robust Outlook</h3>
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for CQP&#39;s 2024 earnings is pegged at $4.15 per share, suggesting growth of 57% from the year-ago reported figure. The consensus mark for 2025 earnings is pegged at $4.18 per share, also indicating a year-over-year improvement.
<h3>Impressive Earnings Surprise History</h3>
Cheniere Partners&#39; bottom line outpaced estimates in the trailing four quarters, the average surprise being 28.8%.
<h3>Key Business Tailwinds</h3>
CQP holds a strong position in the market as a leading LNG exporter in the United States, thanks to its Sabine Pass LNG terminal, which boasts a production capacity of 30 Mtpa.

As of Mar 31, 2024, Cheniere Partners maintained a robust liquidity position, with $2.1 billion in total available liquidity. This includes $333 million in cash and cash equivalents, $59 million in restricted cash, and substantial available commitments under credit facilities.

This represents a 2% increase in cargo and a 4% increase in volume from the same period in 2023. The consistent rise in LNG exports highlights the partnership&#39;s operational efficiency and ability to meet global LNG demand.
<h3>Risks</h3>
