In that context, they stressed that an eventual rebound of the S&P 500 could make sense only under certain assumptions: “With the somewhat more reasonable valuations today (it is still far from being cheap), it is well worth asking what opportunities begin to appear. We believe that, to the extent that you can avoid a recession, an entry point between 4,800 and 5,000 for the S&P500 makes a lot of sense (it is not cheap, but it makes sense) if we invest a long horizon of investment,” Ignacio Murua, Financial Advisor of Quicktrade SBS.
However, expectations go “Quite lower if the main economy of the world enters recession and we could see the S&P500 quoting near or below 4,000 points. That is why, despite the temptation that generates seeing the collapse of certain companies, mainly technological, we recommend caution and prudence when investing,” Murua added.

Regarding the weights, The day of the day was given by the CER titles, which suffered decreases of up to 3.2%, since with the decline of the official exchange rate, the expectations of a price leap in April begin to deflate.
“The highlights of the day came from the hand of the official dollar that again fell again. In this way, the jump of the exchange rate post exit of the stocks would be void. Attentive to this, the expectations of an inflationary jump in April, began to reduce. The market began to reflect it today in the CER curve, which marked strong casualty”commented from IEB Group. “If on Tuesday the dynamic continues and the dollar continues to yield, we could see greater casualties in the CER curve,” They warned.
