Morgan Stanley analysts are joining the global recession bandwagon as they slash their market outlook for the S&P from 2175 to 2050. They are advising that investors sell stocks that have recovered in this latest rally. Accordingly to Morgan Stanley this rally has run its course and is on the final stages. Their market outlook is stocks will fall from shortly. They are not alone in their outlook.

In their comments they indicated: “Weaker growth forecasts and rising political risk lead us to close our positive tactical stance and lower exposure in global equities,” the analysts said in the note. “The probability of a global recession has risen.”

Market Outlook – Global Recession

They anticipated that the risk of a global recession was 30%. However they also indicated that the USA remained their favorite equity market and cautioned investors they they would need to be selective in stock choice. Meanwhile they are increasing holdings of cash, Japanese government bonds and US Treasurys.
