A strong earnings season should bolster the rattled U.S. stock market, but potentially not without some further turmoil, according to JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s head of quantitative and derivative strategy, Marko Kolanovic.
“Liquidity was a big problem in the market meltdown of early February, and hasn’t really recovered since then,” Kolanovic said in a March 29 interview in New York, referring to the worst selloff in the S&P 500 Index since August 2015. Buyers’ strikes could continue to plague the market as investors grapple with worries ranging from a global trade war to pressures on Facebook Inc., he said.
