The stock market likely faces further losses later this year as the possibility of a deeper recession in the second half of 2023 grows, according to BofA.

The continuation of the Fed's aggressive campaign to raise interest rates likely means that a "hard landing" outcome — in which the economy tumbles into a recession — will follow in the latter part of 2023, he said.

The gloomy forecast comes after a brutal year for the stock market, its worst since the 2008 financial crisis. All three indexes tumbled in 2022, snapping a three-year win streak. The Dow Jones Industrial Average ended the year down 8.8%, the best of the three. The S&P 500 sank 19.4%, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq composite plunged 33.1%.

Stocks initially rallied in early 2023, although equities have lost some of that momentum amid rate-hike fears. The S&P closed Friday up about 6.67% from the start of the year, but down about 0.83% for the week.to raise interest rates eight consecutive times to a range of 4.5% to 4.75%, and signaled last month that a "couple more" increases are on the table this year.
