Earnings growth expectations remain strong, buoyed by anticipation of sustained earnings growth over the long term, providing a positive outlook for the stock market. Despite looming tariff concerns, the importance of earnings as the primary driver of stock prices remains unchanged. Economic growth and demand for products and services are robust, while growth has normalized from earlier high levels. However, a disparity exists between hard economic data, which remains positive, and soft sentiment-oriented data, indicating weaker consumer and business confidence. This divergence highlights the importance of focusing on hard data for investment decisions. Analysts predict that the US stock market may outperform the economy due to positive operating leverage resulting from companies' cost structure adjustments. While risks persist, including political uncertainty, geopolitical issues, and economic downturns, long-term investors should remain focused on the long game, which historically yields positive returns.
