Will the Market Broaden in 2025?
The earnings season is upon us and the investors are excited to see how the market sets the pace for the rest of 2025. On January 14, Thomas Martin, senior portfolio manager at GLOBALT Investments, appeared in an interview on Wealth at Yahoo Finance to share his outlook on the market and the sectors he expects to grow.
Martin shared that strategists have been putting out their target price for the S&P 500 since November 2024, which happens to be particularly wide. However, in 2025, the market is seeing one of the lowest rates of standard deviation in a while. In addition to that, the rate of return based on the targets in November is around 10% which is in line with the long-term average of the S&P 500. Based on this, Martin concluded that analysts are conservative with their estimates and are not willing to make bets on the outliers.
With uncertain policies, inflation expectations, and interest rates, he believes that the market will either experience a “down market” or a “very strong up-market” by the end of 2025. Martin also added that he expects 15% overall earnings growth followed by a 10% rate of return, emphasizing that this combination may result in the contraction of multiples. He shared that the contraction may happen because of several factors, especially interest rates being higher than usual.
Martin is extremely bullish on the financials, information technology, and communication services industries. He also expects some growth in the healthcare sector as the market broadens out. He also suggested that an optimal product portfolio will include names with strong fundamentals and sound financial performance. He added that diversification is particularly important and emphasizes the need for cash in emergency situations.
As Martin suggested, a safer portfolio is more diversified and involves names with stronger fundamentals. However, at the same time, some stocks are garnering immense traction from people on social media because of their growth potential and sound financial performance.
