Christopher Harvey, head of equity strategy at Wells Fargo Securities:
- says he remains optimistic about the long-term outlook for equities
- cautions investors against overlooking the potential fallout from the April 2 tariff announcement
He noted:
“We remain constructive on equities longer term given:
(1) potential monetary stimulus (i.e., 75+ bps of 2025 Fed rate cuts) starting by mid-year;
(2) anticipated tax bill movement (and possible enactment) this summer;
and (3) several uber-caps already look oversold (TSLA, AVGO, NVDA),”
“However, the risks are not small and recession is possible. We are worried most about the potential unintended consequences of aggressive tariff moves,”
