US economic growth expectations have slipped dramatically throughout Q1 as weaker-than-expected (real) macro data has spoiled the party (along with rising geopolitical risk). However, surveys of economic hope are hyped up on goldilocks-like hype - to an extent we have never seen before... ever.
As BofAML's latest report shows, based on economic survey data, US economic growth should be (and should have been) up near 7%... a far cry from 'reality'...
And perhaps even more worrisome is BofAML's macro model divergence from the 'micro'-economic surge in company's earnings expectations (think tax cuts)...
In other words, profit bulls are now massively dependent on a sharp snapback in US GDP growth in Q2... just as the treade wars are hotting up.
