A Recovery in the Works? Analysts Upgrade or Downgrade Carvana, Cleveland-Cliffs, Target and More
Published:
Markets continued their rally on Tuesday on the back of even more strong earnings hitting the tape. The Nasdaq again was the best-performing index, up 1.8%, while the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones industrials were each up 1.7% each.
Goldman Sachs gave a solid boost to the Dow with its better-than-expected earnings. However, despite this good news, the investment bank’s CEO David Solomon noted that there is a “good chance” that the U.S. economy will enter a recession next year.
The question remains whether equities finally are in recovery, or is this just another bear market rally on the long way down?
