Analysts at JPMorgan said in a client note Wednesday that its US Tactical Positioning Monitor triggered level that shows an “attractive set-up” for the S&P 500.
The monitor measures US stock allocations. JPMorgan said positioning currently compares to that of late August 2023 and the late October 2023 lows, when an attractive set-up was also triggered.
When the indicator has reached a similar level previously, it is said that the US equity benchmark gained roughly 3% in the following 20 days.
“The tactical bounce appears poised to continue with the keys being megacap tech earnings and PCE releases this week,” said analysts at JPMorgan.
They add: "Markets may overshoot to the upside if all above releases are favorable, but buy-the-dip has kicked in with tech and value poised to lead and artificial intelligence trade seen resuming."
