Are Stocks Rebounding After the Recent Selloff?
The S&P 500 officially entered correction territory last week, falling more than 10% from its recent highs before rallying 2% on Friday. Analysts, including CFRA Research’s Sam Stovall, believe the market could find a floor near 5,400, implying a modest downside from Friday’s close. Despite the bounce, the Nasdaq remains in correction mode, down 12% from its peak.
Investor uncertainty continues as markets react to evolving tariff policies and concerns over corporate cost-cutting. Comments from officials indicate a willingness to accept near-term economic pain to push through structural changes, adding to market volatility.
