2023 Market Outlook
The interplay between Fed policy, inflation, economic growth and earnings will drive the market in 2023, analysts say.
But inflation could fall far enough (3%-4%) for the Fed to essentially think it has accomplished its mission (although it won’t say it directly as the target is still 2%), but for all intents and purposes, we could exit 2023 without a material inflation problem,”
A resilient job market so far has optimists — and Fed officials — arguing that the economy could avoid a so-called hard landing as monetary policy continues to tighten.
anticipating an economic recession to materialize early in 2023, as evidenced by the three quarters of projected S&P 500 index earnings declines and continued defensive sector leanings,” said Sam Stovall, chief investment strategist at CFRA, in a Wednesday note. “The severity of the recession remains in question. We expect it to be mild.”

Market Valuation Indicators
...
The CAPE Ratio (also known as the Schiller P/E or PE 10 Ratio) is an acronym for the Cyclically-Adjusted Price-to-Earnings Ratio. The ratio is calculated by dividing a company’s stock price by the average of the company’s earnings for the last ten years, adjusted for inflation.
The CAPE ratio allows the assessment of a company’s profitability over different periods of an economic cycle. The ratio also considers economic fluctuations, including the economy’s expansion and recession. Essentially, it provides a broader view of a company’s profitability by smoothing out the cyclical effects of the economy
In the past, the CAPE ratio has proved its importance in identifying potential bubbles and market crashes. The historical average of the ratio for the S&P 500 Index is between 15-16, while the highest levels of the ratio have exceeded 30. The record-high levels occurred three times in the history of the U.S. financial markets. The first was in 1929 before the Wall Street crash that signaled the start of the Great Depression. The second was in the late 1990s before the Dotcom Crash, and the third came in 2007 before the 2007-2008 Financial Crisis.
recent changes in the calculation of earnings under the GAAP distort the ratio and provide an overly pessimistic view of future earnings.
