Goldman Sachs's or Sachs'

Hello,

I'm not quite sure which one I should use here?

"Goldman Sachs'/Sachs's fixed income floor has been doing great"

As far as I know, if singular it goes X's, if plural then Xs'. What happens if the word itself end with an S and its singular?

Thanks

The choice which is technically correct is Goldman Sachs's, but it depends on your editor and/or your editor's style manual. Both are used. com/goldman-sachs%E2%80%99-income-falls-after-paying-16b-dividend-buffett-still-beats-estimates CJ

Most style manuals these days say you should add apostrophe s.
