In this article, we will look at the 10 Most Undervalued Hotel Stocks To Invest In Now.
On March 10, Tom Lee, Head of Research at Fundstrat Global Advisors, appeared on CNBC’s ‘Closing Bell’ to talk about his base case for equity markets. While he is not negative about stocks, he does have a base case that at some point this year, we are going to go down 20% and have a bear market. Lee said that he expects that decline to happen when the market does not respond to good news.
According to him, right now we are in a period where we already had a bear market in software, the Mag 7, and crypto, and that has already taken out a lot of speculation. He bets that markets will actually lift through the end of the month, and that we are going to be positive for March, maybe hitting 7300. It is only later in the year that he thinks a bear market may show itself.

Lee further said that looking back at the last two days, oil is $15 higher than it was last week, but the S&P is higher, and so he thinks that the market is handling higher oil prices better.
