Good MorningThe market gyrations continued on Wednesday with Tuesday’s losers moving higher and winners moving lower. The big story is rotation. The market is rotating out of growth and into value but a big question remains unanswered; what will happen to the S&P 500 over the next few months. With the number of new COVID cases rising daily, it appears we are on the brink of the darkest days of the pandemic. Economic restrictions have already resumed, there is another widespread shutdown the S&P 500 could easily retest the March lows.
The silver lining is the economy. The economy is rebounding much stronger than anticipated and now sustaining itself. A massive drawdown of inventory has the U.S. on the brink of a major manufacturing rebound that will last for years to come. That is compounded by what one analyst called a Golden Age for Homebuilders that promises jobs, jobs, and more jobs.
