Updates with Goldman Sachs' S&P 500 target; ING's growth forecast for China and Barclays' GDP growth forecast for US, China and Euro Area
May 13 (Reuters) - Some of the major brokerages have revised downward their U.S. recession forecasts after a temporary tariff truce between the U.S. and China eased global trade tensions and sparked a rally in riskier assets this week.
Goldman Sachs, the first major brokerage to make this adjustment, lowered its recession probability from 45% to 35%. Barclays has dismissed recession risks altogether, while J.P. Morgan now estimates the likelihood of a recession to be below 50%.
Additionally, Goldman Sachs raised its S&P 500 .SPX year-end target to 6,100 from 5,900.
Following are the forecasts from some top banks on economic growth, inflation and the performance of major asset classes in 2025.
