Wall Street is betting on a strong US economy in 2025: Morning Brief
Published On Dec 4, 2024, 6:00 AM
Wall Street strategists are optimistic about the U.S. economy continuing to surprise with stronger-than-expected growth into 2025. Key firms like RBC and Wells Fargo are projecting significant growth, with estimates for the S&P 500 reaching 6,600 to 7,007 points by year-end. This optimism is driven by an anticipated GDP growth of 2% to 3%, with a shift towards 'value' stocks anticipated to perform better in this economic environment. Several sectors, including financials, consumer discretionary, materials, real estate, and utilities, are viewed as favorable for investment based on their connection to GDP growth.
