I've written on multiple occasions about how deficit spending ultimately hampers GDP growth by crowding out private investment. It can also weigh on GDP growth when inflows of foreign dollars go toward funding the fiscal deficit instead of buying US goods or being invested in US asset...
There is little to be worried about currently in the next four quarters' expected S&P 500 EPS and revenue growth. Energy, Health Care, Technology, and Utilities are the sectors that have seen downward pressure on their expected EPS growth rates. 2021 will likely have a very di...
