Investors are crowding into the biggest stocks in the S&P 500 at levels seen in prior bubbles. On a surface level, the S&P 500 looks like it's having a stellar start to 2023. The chart below shows crowding levels in low-volatility stocks, which investors seek in recessionary environments. If the US economy continues to avoid a recession, stocks could be well positioned to continue their gains this year. But many strategists believe a downturn — or at least a pullback in earnings — will drag the S&P 500 down to its October 2022 lows, or worse.
Next week's market action could be dictated by how well the latest quarterly reports from corporate America are received.

That is hardly an "earnings recession." More accurately: analysts are predicting a mild "earnings recession" for the first half of the year, but then a rebound in the second half. The strategists have good reason to be nervous Strategists are nervous because the market is priced for a perfect landing. It is not even priced for a "mild" recession. The difference between a "mild" recession and a "deep" recession on stocks is enormous: a "typical" recession will produce an earnings decline of 10%-20%, and a multiple compression of 20%-25%.
As commercial real estate comes under even greater pressure, investors should steer clear of these stocks that are overexposed to the sector, JPMorgan said. Commercial real estate is already facing more challenges this year than other parts of real estate, such as retail or lodging. Last year, office real estate dropped 37.6%, also on a total return basis. Given this, JPMorgan screened for a basket of stocks with direct and indirect exposure to U.S. commercial real estate. JPMorgan also identified pharmacy store chains Walgreens Boots Alliance and CVS Health as having direct exposure to any slowdown in commercial real estate.

Bad news has recently been good news for the stock market, but that won't be the case much longer, according to Dubravko Lakos-Bujas, chief U.S. equity strategist at JPMorgan. "Lately, equities have been shrugging off bad economic news and rising on weaker [economic] data and lower yields," Lakos-Bujas said in a note. The S & P 500 has risen about 2% so far in 2023 following its worst year since 2008. JPMorgan's year-end S & P 500 year-end sits at 4,200, about 8% higher than the index's current level around 3,900. The bank's forecast is slightly higher than the average target among Wall Street strategists, according to CNBC's market strategist survey that rounds up 15 top strategists' outlooks.

Stocks still have at least 7% more to fall before hitting a bottom, according to JPMorgan's chief stock strategist Dubravko Lakos. He told CNBC that earnings estimates for 2023 are still too high, and the Fed would likely stay restrictive on monetary policy. "I don't think the Fed is going to make it easy for the market. He predicted the S&P 500 will dip at least to 3,600, representing a 7% decline from current levels, particularly since central bankers are expected to keep interest rates restrictive. The Fed hiked interest rates by 425 basis points last year to rein in inflation, leading the S&P 500 to sink 20% for its worst losses since 2008.
The economic and market pressures hitting consumers are likely to show even greater impact in 2023, according to JPMorgan. "Consumers have mostly exhausted post-Covid excess savings and for the first time are getting hit by a broadening negative wealth effect from all assets simultaneously (e.g., housing, bonds, equities, alternative/private investments, crypto). The proverbial snowball should continue to gain momentum next year as consumers and corporates more meaningfully cut discretionary spending and capital investments," Lakos-Bujas said. The S & P 500 is down about 14% in 2022, even with a recent rally. Lakos-Bujas wrote that he expects S & P 500 to test its recent lows in the first half of 2023 before rebounding, if the Fed starts to change its course.
As inflation eases in the U.S., certain equities are poised to outperform, according to JPMorgan. Names poised to gain on lower inflation As this happens, some equities will see more of a benefit than others, according to the note. To identify such names, JPMorgan constructed an inflation underperformer basket, "a portfolio of stocks that are likely to underperform the broader market if inflation continues to rise and is expected to outperform the broader market if inflation surprises on the downside in the future." Popular beverage makers and restaurant chains should also get a boost if inflation eases, according to JPMorgan. "As inflation normalizes to a healthy rate and the cycle turns a corner, we would expect both reflation sensitive and long-duration sectors to outperform," wrote Lakos-Bujas.
