Here’s what may drive stocks even higher (hint: not the trade war or the Fed)
The reason is tepid earnings results throughout 2019, according to analysts at DataTrek in a Monday note. “2019’s no-growth earnings will make for easy [comparables] in 2020 if the U.S.-China trade war abates,” DataTrek co-founder Nicholas Colas wrote. Colas said the final three months of 2019 should benefit from comparisons with last year, but Wall Street strategists now expect a 1.1% decline in earnings for the quarter.

Bank of America hikes 10-year yield forecasts
Bank of America Merrill Lynch upgraded its year-end forecasts for the 10-year bond yields of the U.S., the U.K. and Germany. It lifted its 10-year yield U.S. view to 2% from 1.25%, its German view to -0.2% from -0.75% and its U.K. view to 0.8% from 0.5%. "Relative to our more pessimistic revision in August, the US and China are working to de-escalate trade tensions, no-deal Brexit risks have been banished for now, global data have started to stabilize, and central banks have shifted from dovish to neutral policy stances," the broker said. The new forecasts are much closer to current levels -- the U.S. 10-year yield was 1.94%, the German 10-year yield was -0.24% and the U.K. 10-year yield was 0.81%.

Gold falls to three-month low as demand for haven assets wanes
Gold futures settled firmly lower Monday, driving the yellow metal to the weakest level level in about three months. December gold concluded the session off $5.80, or 0.4%, at $1,457.10, marking the lowest finish for the most-active contract since early August, according to Dow Jones Market Data. A recent resurgence in equity markets, notably the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 index , have sapped demand for gold and assets perceived as havens, including Treasurys. Indeed, rising yields, which move inversely to prices, with the 10-year Treasury note at 1.94%, can compete against gold, which doesn't offer a coupon.

Bank of America declares ‘the end of the 60-40’ standard portfolio
Investors have long been told that the ideal portfolio should carry 60% of its holdings in equities and 40% in bonds, a mix that provides greater exposure to historically superior stock returns, while also granting the diversification benefits and lower risk of fixed-income investments. “The relationship between asset classes has changed so much that many investors now buy equities not for future growth but for current income, and buy bonds to participate in price rallies,” Harris and Woodard wrote.
