Tom Lee Says The Bottom Is In And The S&P 500 Is Heading To 7,300

Fundstrat’s Tom Lee says the bottom is in and the S&P 500 (NYSE:SPY) is heading to 7,300, arguing last week proved stocks can rise even as the Iran war worsened and oil surged from $87 to $116.

The Bottom Is In

“I think the bottom’s in because last week was a period where the war was getting worse and oil was going up, but stocks weren’t going down,” Lee told CNBC’s Scott Wapner Wednesday.

“So that’s a good precondition and today now we have the rate of change that the war is de-escalating,” he added.

From mid-March, oil rose from $87 to $116 while the S&P 500 climbed from 6,300 to 6,600. Stocks rose even as the Iran war worsened. This proved stocks could handle bad news.
