The stock market gains seen this year despite rising inflation, rate hikes and recession fears have emboldened market bulls. Many now believe the next year would be a spectacular one for the stock market and stocks would touch new highs. In July, Ed Yardeni from Yardeni Research said that a soft landing is now inevitable and the broader market is now on track to see record gains in 2024. Yardeni said in his note that the bull market that started in October 2022 would last until at least the end of 2023. He said at the time that he was seeing S&P 500 somewhere around 4,800 and 5,400 over the next 18 months. Yardeni, did not however, rule out the chances of a broader correction. He said that the S&P 500 is indeed hot and the NASDAQ is even hotter. However, he said that any meltdown in stocks would be a temporary correction rather than the start of a bear market which many of the Wall Street analysts have been warning about ever since the bull market started. Yardeni said that some analysts are too pessimistic. He sees S&P 500 earnings to hit $270 per share by 2025.
The $75 Trillion Reason Behind Market Optimism
Yardeni at the time said that the chances of a soft landing and a disinflationary scenario were growing. His predictions are yet to be validated since investors are still in a wait-and-see mode. Inflation is still high but showing signs of settling down and labor market is also showing signs of cooling. In his July note, Yardeni set the odds of a recession over the next two and a half years at just 25%. Part of the reason why Yardeni was optimistic on the market was his belief that baby boomers have a whopping $75 trillion in wealth in savings, liquid assets, real estate, and other investments. Yardeni believes consumer spending will remain strong. He thinks we won’t face a broader recession and instead, certain parts of the economy would face contracting while other areas will keep expanding.
However, Goldman Sachs does not agree with the $75 trillion reason. In a report, Goldman Sachs talked about the risks to the US economy in 2024 and said that US household savings are dwindling fast.
“Economists now estimate household savings to be around $350 billion, which could run out by the first quarter of 2024. This coincides with the reinstatement of student loan payments, which may dampen spending, and an aggressive build-up of credit card balances, with interest costs that have soared to historical highs of more than 20%.”
Goldman also said that US government spending might slow down in the near future amid debt ratings downgrades. US government spending will face increased scrutiny in the future which could hamper spending on major government projects. If spending from the government slows down, the trickle-down effect could cause a wider slowdown in money circulation.
JPMorgan also voiced similar concerns in a latest report. The bank’s analysts said that “cracks” have started to appear in the labor market which was a bright spot throughout the market storm. Data shows that the rate of job openings is slowing down and baby boomers are permanently leaving the workforce. JPMorgan said the cooling labor market could be a sign that the economy is entering a recession.
“Overall, the U.S. economy should continue to grow at a tempered pace from here, and while a recession is not guaranteed, a slower-moving economy will be increasingly sensitive to shocks. There remain risks on the horizon, most notably weakness in commercial real estate, that could push this slow-moving economy into a recession within the next year.”

Exela Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:XELA)’s executive chairman Par Chadha said during a latest earnings call that the company is going through a rough patch. Answering a question, the executive said:
“What I referred to was, when we were going through a rough patch, we were in-line to win some of the bid, some of the RFPs, but because of the rough patch, we were not able to win those. The business climate still remains challenging, but however, the business of process automation, as I think I mentioned that in couple of my other calls. It’s a little contrarian, meaning people when they reduce our customers, when they reduce their headcount, they look for variable costs, which means companies like ours benefit from providing at scale services, during the periods of uncertainty in the macro environment. So, I think we are going to see some good wins to help us, grow our business. But our fundamental value proposition, obviously, is driving stability, recurring revenue, and as well as very high renewal rate.”

Miller Value Deep Value Strategy made the following comment about Tupperware Brands Corporation (NYSE:TUP) in its Q4 2022 investor letter:
“During the quarter we only had one detractor, Tupperware Brands Corporation (NYSE:TUP) whose share price was down more than 30%. The company is in a midst of a multi-year transformation focused on enhancing their global direct selling business, expanding their omnichannel presence, exiting non-core assets, rolling out new product innovation and enhancing the company technology and supply chain. Tupperware’s revenues have been adversely impacted by significant market weakness in Europe and China along with the company experiencing weaker volumes from implementing recent price increases. Management has undertaken a $100M cost reduction program and with the recent price actions beginning to offset commodity price pressures, the company should see profitability and cash flow generation improve over the coming year. In addition, management continues to make incremental investments in the business to further expand their omni-channel efforts and modernize their infrastructure. While it will take longer for the company to complete the turnaround plan, we believe the current share price has limited value for successfully completing the transformation.”
