According to the Yitong Financial APP, despite the fact that the US stock market is continuously breaking historical records, Wall Street analysts covering these stocks are not eager to chase this uptrend. It has been observed that those stock researchers who almost always predict an increase in stock prices are currently lowering their expectations for the S&P 500 index components at a faster pace than raising them, marking the second occurrence of this situation since the outbreak of the Iran war. Data from Jefferies LLC also shows that in the broader Russell 3000 index, the proportion of component stocks with a "buy" rating is almost the same as four years ago, and far lower than the peak during the dot-com bubble.
