JPMorgan relève l'objectif de l'indice S&P 500

Gold Finance reports that on April 21st, strategists at JPMorgan Chase stated that enthusiasm for artificial intelligence technology is once again rising, which will help drive the U.S. stock market to reach levels higher than expected this year. The team led by Dubravko Lakos-Bujas raised the annual target for the S&P 500 index to 7,600 points, after having lowered the target to 7,200 points just last month, citing geopolitical risks at the time. On Monday, the S&P 500 closed at 7,109 points, indicating an additional rise of about 7%. The optimistic forecast from these strategists is based on a more positive outlook for the technology and artificial intelligence sectors, as they believe this industry will boost corporate profits and alleviate ongoing concerns related to the Iran war.
