European stock bulls looking for the region’s equities to close the gap on superior returns in the US next year are set for disappointment.
The Stoxx Europe 600 Index will end 2025 at 535 points, Bloomberg’s survey of 20 strategists showed, indicating gains of less than 3% from Wednesday’s close. Compare that with forecasts for the S&P 500 Index to rise 7.5% on average, and as much as 17% under the most bullish outlook.
