4 stock market moves to make as recession calls rise on Wall Street, according to Morgan Stanley's stock chief
- Wall Street is seeing an increased risk of recession, with Morgan Stanley's Mike Wilson indicating a 30%-35% chance, up from 10%-20% at the beginning of the year.
- Wilson outlined four investment themes for economic slowdown, including shifting away from consumer goods and small-cap stocks.
- Consumer goods stocks are being avoided due to underlying economic weakness, seen in declining home sales and manufacturing activity over the past few years.
- Consumer confidence has been declining, with concerns over income, business activity, and job market, impacting consumer spending.
- Morgan Stanley's focus is on high-quality defensive and growth stocks, as companies lack pricing power in the current economic climate.
- The bank recommends waiting to purchase the weakest sectors and companies when the market officially enters a recession for potential gains.
- Key sectors to watch for investment in a recession include consumer goods, materials, and the energy sector for a potential 'rolling recovery.'
- Amid increasing recession calls, strategists emphasize tactical moves and proper sector positioning for advantageous investment.
- Wilson's team at Morgan Stanley has outperformed the S&P 500 by 7% year-to-date by being strategic and focusing on the right sectors.
- Goldman Sachs and other institutions have also raised recession probabilities, reflecting the growing concerns across the financial industry.
