Usually when indexes hit and break new high, it is a good sign. Hence, I believe the market is bullish now

Goldman expects SP 500 to rally even more

Forget panic over a new chapter in the euro-zone crisis, courtesy of a reviled Cyprus bank bailout. Goldman Sachs expects the  SP 500 index , which has rallied nearly 9% so far this year, to keep climbing.

In a report dated Monday, Goldman equity strategist David Kostin and his team raised their year-end target for the SP 500 to 1,625 from 1,575, representing a 4% rise from Friday’s levels.

The stock-market gauge closed at 1,560.70 on Friday, within 5 points of its all-time high of 1,565.15, hit on Oct. 09, 2007. The SP 500 has approached its peak six months sooner than expected, according to the Goldman strategists.

“The 2013 U.S. equity market story is becoming one of improving business activity accompanied by increased CEO confidence,” they wrote. Recent economic data including employment growth and retail sales have been strong, while the sequester spending cuts have gone into effect and the government is still functioning, the analysts noted. Goldman Sachs expects the U.S. economy to grow 2% in 2013 and 2.9% in 2014.

The Goldman analysts recommended cyclical exposure rather than defensive stocks. They believe that financial stocks, along with industrials and materials, should outperform. “The thesis behind our bullish view on financials involves accelerating economic growth, rising 10-year interest rates, improving [return on equity], and rising dividends and buybacks,” they said.

Goldman also recommended asset re-allocation away from Treasurys and into equities for investors with intermediate and long-term horizons. The 10-year Treasury yield will likely reach 2.5% by the end of the year, according to Goldman that yield is currently trading around 1.95%.

Kostin’s colleague Jernej Omahen on Monday called the Cyprus bailout  an “uncomfortable precedent” for the longer term.

x 1 		Soon there will be a great migration of funds from expensive bonds into cheap equities. Properties are not the place to invest your funds in for now. At current properties price level, they are very expensive. Investor who wants to hedge against inflation will invest in equities because the valuations are very attractive at current levels.

x 0 		As investors push equities and other risk assets to multi-year highs, one question being raised by analysts is whether upbeat markets are becoming too complacent. Lim Say Boon, chief investment officer at DBS Private Bank in Singapore, says while markets are probably not pricing in long-term structural problems such as huge debt levels in many major economies, the sharp and swift move into stocks this year do not reflect complacency. Instead, the rally in risk assets shows investors are finally taking a step back from high levels of fear and anxiety that ruled last year. In the past three months, shares in the U.S. and Asia have rallied more than 6 percent, while stocks in Europe have gained 4 percent, as fears about U.S. fiscal worries subside and economic data paint a brighter outlook for global growth. It's a sharp contrast to the middle of last year, when a surge in Spanish government bonds yields and worries about a break-up of the euro zone triggered a sharp fall in the euro and equity markets globally.

Expect gradual ascent for STI towards 3450 by end June and
3600 by year end, re-rating depends on earnings upgrades. We
believe the Singapore market has shifted into a more gradual ascend
compared to the fast paced climb that lifted the STI by 13% in mid Nov
to reach 3320 in early February. Liquidity has pushed STI’s forward PE
up to its average of 14.1x, and has the potential to lift the index closer
to 3600 by year-end based on FY14F earnings. While temporary
choppiness is expected in the near term, we maintain our view that
equities will rise further in 2013, with momentum picking up in 2H.
Earnings have stabilized in 4Q12, pointing to potential for earnings
upgrade, ending a two-year downgrade trend. FY13F earnings growth
of 4.9% for STI stocks and 8.9% for stocks under DBS coverage
indicate a low base for big caps.

x 0 		Morgan Stanley's Global Economics team expects GDP growth to 
have bottomed out and the global economy to enter 'Daylight' 
from 'Twilight' with around 4 percent global GDP growth in the 
second half of 2013 and in 2014. 
" We believe that a combination of oligopolistic growth 
companies and investment led growth will continue to drive 
Indonesian and Thai markets," it said. 
Indonesia is its most preferred ASEAN 3 market, followed by 
Thailand and Singapore, respectively. 
" We are playing a potential recovery in global growth by 
being 'overweight' energy and materials in Thailand and 
'overweight' transportation sector in Singapore," it said. 
Morgan Stanley's preferred stocks to play the potential 
recovery in global growth in the second half of 2013 are PTT Pcl 
, PTT Global Chemical Pcl  , IRPC Pcl 
and Singapore Airlines Ltd  .
