Elevated building material costs and tariff uncertainty put pressure on the index.
Ed Yardeni, Yardeni Research president, joins 'Squawk Box' to discuss the latest market trends, why he's lowering his S&P 500 year-end target, state of the economy, President Trump's tariff policy, and more.
Three is a trend, as RBC Capital Markets joined Goldman Sachs and Yardeni Research in slashing S&P 500 price targets.
The S&P 500 index jumped over 2% on Friday, after a fall into the correction zone on Thursday last week, whereas the Nasdaq continues to be in the correction territory. While technical analysis points toward bearish trends, this analyst says that investors can start looking for buy signals.
The iShares Core S&P 500 Index ETF (XUS:CA) has outperformed the S&P 500, making it a compelling option for Canadian investors despite currency headwinds. The fund's AUM has surged strongly to CAD8.6 billion since 2023, indicating growing investor interest and a bullish outlook for XUS:CA. XUS:CA's higher turnover rate and strategic rebalancing have contributed to its superior returns compared to similar ETFs like SPY and IVV.
The sudden nature of the stock market's reversal may have made the drawdown feel even worse, especially for retail investors.
Only a few months into 2025, the sharp decline of the U.S. stock market has prompted some of Wall Street's top forecasters to scale back their bullish predictions for the S&P 500.
The S&P 500 experienced its worst day since August on Monday, dropped into correction territory on Thursday, and posted its best day since the election on Friday. The volatile week led to a weekly loss of 2.3%, the index's fourth consecutive week in the red.
