10/29/2018 Morgan Stanley says October sell-off is 'morphing' into a bear market
The rosier view from Goldman comes amid a largely solid economic
backdrop. Third-quarter GDP rose 3.5 percent, according to a
preliminary reading Friday.
Still, Morgan Stanley has defended its forecast for a dismal stock
performance this year, even as the S&P 500 rallied 9.5 percent by
mid-September. Since then, stocks have plunged more than 8
percent, erasing nearly all of their 2018 gains over that span of five
weeks as the markets appear to reward Wilson's persistence.
The strategist also said that the U.S. equity market sold off in ways
"we haven't seen in years," highlighting losses in technology and
consumer discretionary stocks. Wilson said those sectors are where
money managers have the most exposure, and translates into
"extreme portfolio pain."
"The rolling bear market is quickly moving to complete its job with
growth stocks (Tech, Health Care and Discretionary) catching up on
the downside and we don't think it will be over until this gap is
completely closed," he wrote.
Wilson's bear case for the market of 2,400 implies more than 10
percent downside from current levels; his base case of 2,750 implies
around 3 percent upside.
