"Bold Prediction: S&P 500 to Soar to 5,000 in 2024"

RBC Capital Markets predicts that the S&P 500 will reach a new record high of 5,000 by the end of next year, joining other bullish forecasts for 2024. Strong investor sentiment and buoyant equity valuations are expected to drive the index to new heights. Despite relatively high Treasury yields, analysts believe they do not pose a threat to the appeal of equities. The forecast is based on five models that consider sentiment, valuation and earnings, the economy, politics, and the relationship between stocks and bonds. The US presidential election is seen as a potential source of uncertainty for the stock market in 2024.

Market's ability to ignore recession tested again.

According to Lori Calvasina, head of US equity strategy at RBC Capital Markets, the stock market may be ignoring all signs of a recession, similar to the post-WWII era. Calvasina found that the 1945 recession was the only one with no market pullback. She listed the resemblance between the government war funding in 1945 to 2020's massive Covid relief and the Fed's rate hikes as a few examples. However, she also acknowledged that there are differences between the two time periods and noted that she isn't a believer of the bull case. Her S&P 500 year-end price target is 4,100.

However, there are promising signs that the vaccine is working, according to RBC Capital Markets analyst Luca Issi. Moderna is currently working on an updated version of the shot that could improve its effectiveness against strain B, and plans to begin a confirmatory study of that updated vaccine later this month.
