Last week, RBC Capital Markets' Myles Zyblock upgraded the S&P 500 to "overweight."
One big reason for this was the upturn in manufacturing data.
"[Last] week’s ISM Manufacturing and global PMI data showed improvement, with both moving above their breakeven level of 50," wrote Zyblock. "These developments suggest that S&P 500 earnings growth, which has effectively flat-lined on a year-over-year basis, should pick up pace in the first half of the new year."
