Barclays Bank: The market remains under pressure, continue to buy on dips. The S&P 500 index has fallen about 4.2% this month.

Gate News reports that on March 26, Barclays Bank stated that despite recent market fluctuations caused by the US-Iran conflict, rising oil prices, and inflation pressures, investors should maintain their allocations and buy on dips. Data shows that the S&P 500 Index, the benchmark for the US stock market, has fallen about 4.2% this month. Strategist Ajay Rajadhyaksha pointed out that US corporate earnings remain solid, and the investment cycle continues to advance, indicating that overall fundamentals are still stronger than market sentiment. Currently, asset prices mainly reflect short-term shock expectations, and the market generally believes that the impact of geopolitical conflicts on inflation will be temporary. Meanwhile, although oil prices have risen, long-term gains are limited, and market stress indicators have eased. The S&P 500 is still about 6% below its all-time high, showing that the overall pullback is relatively manageable. The bank believes the market is in a “wall of worry” phase; despite high uncertainty, it does not justify a long-term bearish outlook.
