What Do Economic Indicators Tell Us About Future Stock Returns?

Session Summary: This session examines the link between macroeconomic variables (e.g., GDP, interest rates, inflation) and future stock returns, focusing on US data. A key theme of the session is the contrast between backward-looking economic indicators, which do not reliably forecast future stock returns, and forward-looking market prices. The goal of the session is to equip practitioners with practical knowledge that can help inform portfolio positioning in various economic environments.
