This obsession with controlling inflation — and potentially causing serious pain for average Americans — is driven by one major factor: legacy. High inflation eats away at consumers' purchasing power, and persistent inflation seeps into expectations for price and wage adjustments, which further fuel inflation. What's more, the full impact of the Fed's rate hikes have yet to hit. Legacy actsThere are signs that certain Fed officials are ready to dial back on the inflation fight. And navigating such a tricky economy — without throwing hundreds of thousands of Americans out of work — could cement Powell's legacy.
There are two major driving forces of stock-market returns, according to John Hussman: valuations and investor sentiment. "Put simply, we estimate that the S&P 500 faces the same prospect of full-cycle loss and return-free risk as it did in 1929, 2000, and 2007. The S&P 500, in its current form since 1957, fell more than 46% from 2000-2002 and more than 52% from 2007-2009. Hussman FundsAs for investors sentiment — or what Hussman calls "market internals" — he uses a proprietary measure of the uniformity of investor behavior. Predicted in April 2007 that the S&P 500 could lose 40%, then it lost 55% in the subsequent collapse from 2007 to 2009.

Morgan Stanley's Mike Wilson is telling investors to brace for a winter downdraft. He warns S&P 500 is vulnerable to a 23% drop — bringing it to 3,000. Wilson expects earnings season, which kicks off with financials on Friday, will jolt the market by coming in sharply below expectations. "When we actually talk to people, they talk a bearish game about the first half. But they're not really either positioned for it or they don't really think that it's going to be that bad," said Wilson, who has been defensively positioned since last year.
The S & P 500 may have quite a bit further to fall this year, especially if the U.S. is pushed into a recession, according to Morgan Stanley. What Wilson sees in stocks in 2023 Wilson has a few reasons to again go against the grain. He sees the equity risk premium of the S & P 500 – currently around 2.33% –too low given the earnings risk forecast. "Our base case forecast for 2023 S & P 500 EPS is $195 while our bear case forecast (a recession) is $180," he said. "This compares to the bottoms up consensus forecast of $230, which nearly every client agrees is too high."

But Lebowitz thinks there's a much greater chance that a recession occurs, forcing the Fed to back off. And then there's the inverted yield curve, which has preceded every recession since the 1960s. RIA AdvisorsIt's also not a good environment for stocks because yield curve inversions have usually meant large downward earnings revisions, which haven't happened yet. RIA AdvisorsAnother look at history, Lebowitz said, shows that a recession has to be already underway before stocks can bottom out. The yield curve, Chicago PMI, and other analyses argue it's a matter of when but if a recession occurs.
Attention has shifted from interest rates and inflation to earnings growth and a looming recession. The Federal Reserve's moment of glory as the center of attention for market may have already passed. In 2008, the central bank was slashing interest rates rather than raising them. Morgan Stanley has revamped its fresh-money buy list, which contains nine names it sees outperforming next year. Over time, the firm's ever-changing group of elite stocks has outperformed the becnhmark S&P 500 by 18%.
Jon Wolfenbarger thinks the US economy is already in recession. With growth slowing and the Fed still tightening, Wolfenbarger thinks stocks are due for big losses. The S&P 500 is already down around 20% year-to-date. All of that spells further trouble ahead for stocks, Wolfenbarger said, despite the fact that the S&P 500 has already fallen about 20% in 2022. In a recessionary scenario, Goldman Sachs' David Kostin said the S&P 500 could fall to 3,150, though that is not his base case.
Here are 11 top investment firms' views on what's next for stocks and the economy in 2023. Even Wall Street's biggest bears didn't predict how disastrous 2022 would be for stocks and the economy. Heading into this year, the lowest S&P 500 price target among top investment firms was 4,400, which was set by long-time bear Mike Wilson of Morgan Stanley. The firms had 2023 year-end S&P 500 price outlooks ranging from 4,500 (an 18% gain from the current level of about 3,800) to as low as 3,400 (a nearly 11% loss). Below is the S&P 500 forecast, stock market outlook, and economic outlook from each of these major Wall Street firms, ranked from highest S&P 500 price target to lowest.
John Hussman expects a "far deeper retreat" in stocks, despite the S&P 500's 20% loss in 2022. The 20% loss the S&P 500 has suffered this year has most investors searching for a bottom. "Though recent market losses have removed the most extreme speculative froth, our most reliable valuation measures remain near their 1929 and 2000 extremes." He also said he expects -6% returns over the next 10-12 years for the S&P 500. The chart below shows actual market returns (vertical axis) over 12 years when considering market capitalization of non-financial stock-to-gross value added valuations.
The Fed blew it on inflation stocks are going to have to suffer as a result. The central bank has no choice now but to keep hiking until inflation is down, experts have said. Here are five top voices in markets warning investors not to pin their hopes on a Fed put to save stocks. El-Erian has been a loud critic of the Fed's response to inflation this year, slamming central bankers for saying inflation was "transitory" in 2021. That's the cost of the Fed being late to the game, and the central bank can't back away from its monetary tightening now, El-Erian warned.
A brutal year for stocks has made Wall Street strategists cautious about what's ahead as most are forecasting a similarly bumpy 2023 with minimal returns. The S & P 500 could tumble more than 16% from Wednesday's close to 3,250 before a strong rally to end 2023 higher. He sees the S & P 500 dropping 20% to the 3,000-3,300 level by the first quarter of next year. The firm noted that S & P 500 companies' third-quarter reports showed margins contracted year over year for the first time since the pandemic. If the economy goes into a recession, Goldman said, the S & P 500 would decline to 3,150.
Morgan Stanley's Mike Wilson expects the benchmark S&P 500 will bottom out next year. That presents stock investors with a "terrific buying opportunity," the investment chief told CNBC.

The S&P 500 slipped into bear market territory in June, as the Federal Reserve slammed the brakes on the US economy with aggressive interest rate hikes. Wilson said earnings expectations for next year are 20% too high, but suggested that volatility, rather than a hit to stock prices, is in focus for Morgan Stanley.
