) strategists are maintaining a preference for Growth over Value stocks in the US, while adopting a positive view on Value and a neutral outlook on Growth in Europe.
In Europe, the strategists are now positive on Value stocks, citing their appealing valuations and a historical tendency to rally after elections. They expect a broadening of returns fueled by reinflationary policies and a deregulatory push in a potential Trump second term, which could support Value stocks in the region.
"The style while fundamentally sound has overextended, raising risks for a near-term correction," strategists wrote. “Unfavorable historical returns of the styles post elections also contribute to our view,” strategists added. "While we expect some tailwinds for small caps, we believe they face higher earnings and leverage risk given their poor fundamental balance sheets," Barclays cautioned.
