Morgan Stanley analyst unveils surprising take on stocks after record run
Morgan Stanley analyst unveils surprising take on stocks after record run originally appeared on TheStreet. The S&P 500's rip-roaring rally has taken it to all-time highs, prompting significant debate over whether stocks could run out of steam soon. Many bears say the S&P 500's valuation is near nosebleed territory. With inflation rising and GDP slowing, the risk of stagflation means stocks are too pricey. 💵💰💰💵 What ultimately happens is anybody's guess, but long-time market watcher and Morgan Stanley Chief Strategist Mike Wilson disagrees. This week, he delivered a surprising message to investors, suggesting that not only is the market likely to head higher, but it's only in the early innings. Risks to stocks priced in during "near" bear market The market often finds its footing when everybody panics and presses the sell button. Those oversold conditions can create wonderful buying opportunities for investors who can keep emotions in check. The stock market drubbing this spring is a great example. The S&P 500 tumbled 19% from all-time highs in February to its April low, nearly reaching 20% bear market near bear market drop pushed most measures of investor sentiment deeply into oversold territory, with most predicting that harsher-than-hoped tariffs would cause stagflation or outright recession. Morgan Stanley's Mike Wilson thinks the speed and size of that drop priced in those worst-case scenarios, clearing the way for the start of a new bull market move that could only have just begun. "We're transitioning to an early cycle backdrop — the rolling recovery is beginning," wrote Wilson to clients this week. "The equity market already priced a slowdown in growth in April that's now coming through in the lagging macro data." Last month, the U.S. economy only created 73,000 jobs, far less than the 100,000 Wall Street economists expected. Over the past three months, the U.S. has added only 106,000 jobs, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. That news is discouraging for the economy, but to Wilson's point, it may already have been priced into stocks during the drop this spring. What could happen to the S&P 500 next The S&P 500's 20% plus returns in 2023 and 2024 were driven by increasing optimism of a friendly Fed. After the most hawkish rate hikes since the 1980s in 2022 and 2023, the Fed pivoted to neutral before cutting rates by 1 percentage point last year. This year, the Fed has stayed neutral because it fears that tariffs will be passed on to consumers, causing inflation to increase.

"Ultimately, our house view is for tariff-induced inflation to subside later this year (M/M [month over month] core CPI to peak in August), paving the way for a significant rate cutting cycle." If Wilson is correct that inflation peaks this year and retreats, a "significant" pace of rate cuts in 2026 could position equities for a major move higher, given lower rates fuel GDP, revenue, and earnings growth at publicly-traded companies. "Bottom line, we're bullish on a 6-12 month time horizon due to a rebounding earnings and cash flow environment," wrote Wilson. "In terms of trades, we stay long Industrials, Financials, and U.S. over international equities. Consumer Discretionary Goods remains an underweight amid tariff pressures and weaker pricing power."Morgan Stanley analyst unveils surprising take on stocks after record run first appeared on TheStreet on Aug 12, 2025 This story was originally reported by TheStreet on Aug 12, 2025, where it first appeared.

Why Edgewell Personal Care (EPC) Stock Is Trading Up Today
What Happened? Shares of personal care company Edgewell Personal Care (NYSE:EPC) jumped 3% in the afternoon session after the release of a favorable Consumer Price Index (CPI) report showed inflation cooling more than anticipated. The July report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics indicated a year-over-year inflation rate of 2.7%, just below the 2.8% economists had forecast. This suggests that price pressures on consumers may be easing. Particularly beneficial for the sector was the news that the food index remained flat, with grocery prices even declining by 0.1% month-over-month. This development is seen as a positive for the profitability of food, beverage, and personal care companies, as lower input costs and increased consumer purchasing power could boost sales. A Federal Reserve official's comments on the same day, noting that consumer spending fundamentals remain solid, further bolstered investor confidence in the sector's resilience. After the initial pop the shares cooled down to $22.58, up 2.4% from previous close. Is now the time to buy Edgewell Personal Care? Access our full analysis report here, it's free. What Is The Market Telling Us Edgewell Personal Care's shares are not very volatile and have only had 9 moves greater than 5% over the last year. In that context, today's move indicates the market considers this news meaningful, although it might not be something that would fundamentally change its perception of the business. The previous big move we wrote about was 6 days ago when the stock gained 8.3% on the news that Morgan Stanley upgraded the stock to Equalweight, suggesting the shares may have bottomed out after a steep post-earnings decline. The upgrade followed a steep plunge in the stock's price after the company reported disappointing third-quarter results and lowered its full-year guidance. Edgewell's sales and earnings per share both missed analyst expectations, which the company blamed on a weak sun care season. Morgan Stanley noted that the stock's valuation became compressed after its significant drop. Separately, analysts at Canaccord Genuity maintained a Buy rating, and they believed the stock was oversold, even as they reduced their price target. Edgewell Personal Care is down 32.6% since the beginning of the year, and at $22.58 per share, it is trading 43.9% below its 52-week high of $40.22 from August 2024. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Edgewell Personal Care's shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $734.14.
