New Expectations Strong Targets for the S&P 500
Bank of America has raised its target for the S&P 500 again, targeting $7,200,
from $7,000 previously.
According to reports, Bank of America sees a more accommodating
monetary policy currently boosting interest-sensitive sectors,
while spending on goods and services returns to normal.
Bank of America analysts also stated that they are pricing
in a 12-month market yield, and expect the return
on the index from current levels to be around 8%.
Bank of America believes that small businesses have borne the
losses resulting from tariffs, and that companies
are now using up their inventory.
The group also stated that attention should soon shift to other sectors
apart from technology and artificial intelligence, and focus
on sectors such as energy, tooling, and others.
