Market Resilience Isn’t Complacency

Wilson maintains his 8,000 S&P year-end target, viewing falling valuations amid strong earnings as a healthy mid-cycle rotation, not a warning sign.

• Mid-cycle transition, not complacency: Over 40% of the Russell 3000 has fallen 20%+ since June even as the S&P 500 sits near record highs, with forward P/E down to 19x (~20% below year-ago levels).
• Earnings carrying the load: Median stock earnings growth runs ~15% and revisions breadth is near cycle highs, offsetting the multiple compression.
