While he’s not the most bullish on the Street, Deutsche Bank’s (DB) David Bianco believe that 2014 will indeed see some growth.
“The US economy should sustain a long lasting expansionary cycle of moderate growth, which will make it worthwhile to stay constructive on the S&P 500 for the next couple of years absent a sharp climb in PEs, inflation or interest rates,” Bianco writes in his 2014 outlook.
“At this time, we assign a 75% chance to the S&P reaching 1850 or higher at 2014 end.”
Bianco suggests a “very selective” investment strategy including technology, aerospace, insurance, chemical, and biotechnology stocks.
