US banking giant Goldman Sachs has issued an alert to investors, predicting a market correction based on factors such as declining real income growth, slowing GDP growth, weakening consumer sentiment, overbought stocks, rising concentration in equities, and potential negative impact from the US and European election cycles. While they anticipate a likely downside move, they do not foresee a long-term bear market, citing a slightly expanding economy and potential rate cuts as positive factors.
In a new note to clients, the firm’s strategists say a series of fundamental factors suggest a market correction is on the horizon. They point to declining real income growth, a slowdown in the nation’s GDP growth, and weakening consumer sentiment as headwinds as the second half of the year kicks off. The strategists also highlight that stocks may be overbought, with the S&P 500’s recent outsized performance compared to other markets. Additionally, they point to rising concentration in equities, with the ten largest companies in the index carrying the most weight since 1929, as an additional negative factor.
Goldman’s team says the election cycle could also act as a negative catalyst in the short term. They note, "Election concerns in the US and Europe may also hit consumer and business confidence in coming months." The strategists warn that current market conditions often correspond with bearish "inflection points," offering "a warning signal that a correction and period of higher volatility and lower returns is now more likely."
Despite the data suggesting a move to the downside is likely, the strategists do not believe a long-term bear market is about to begin, pointing to a slightly expanding economy and the potential for rate cuts as positive indicators.
