In light of sustained short-term optimism, Societe Generale analysts increased their forecast for the value of the S&P 500 at the end of the year from the previously anticipated 4,300 points to 4,750 points, MarketWatch reports.
According to experts, market expectations of a recession are "moving away or coming to naught" and investors are starting to place bets on more promising economic prospects.
Despite this, SocGen still predicts a downturn in the American economy in the middle of 2024, but the S&P 500 will continue to be "the last survivor" and endure until the very end. "We continue to see support for the S&P 500 index from investments in artificial intelligence and fiscal support for the manufacturing sector," the bank noted.
