UBS is advising investors to maintain a full strategic allocation to U.S. equities, even after the recent market rally and Friday’s U.S. credit rating downgrade by Moody’s to Aa1.
In a note published Monday, the bank clarified that its recent downgrade of U.S. equities from “Attractive” to “Neutral” reflects short-term valuation concerns, not a bearish outlook.
“We continue to recommend a full strategic allocation,” UBS wrote. “Earnings season highlighted the resilience of structural AI trends, and we expect U.S. stocks to move higher over the next 12 months.” The bank remains overweight on communications services, information technology, health care, and utilities.
I would have thought neutral would mean less than a full allocation. Maintaining "full strategic allocation" despite trimming its outlook seems convoluted reasoning to me. But, hey, maybe that's why they get paid the big $$$?
