Mike Bailey, director of research at FBB Capital Partners, shared his outlook on large-cap stocks during an appearance on CNBC. Bailey expressed optimism about the U.S. economic outlook for 2025 and beyond, highlighting job growth and strong macroeconomic conditions as key factors.
He emphasized that large-cap companies are better positioned than small caps to deliver consistent long-term earnings growth and exceed expectations. Three of the large-cap stocks have seen significant gains due to favorable market conditions and growth prospects.
The selection of these stocks, all with market capitalizations exceeding $10 billion, was based on their top performance over the 30 days ending January 22, 2025. Among the standouts are SoFi Technologies, United Airlines, and Rocket Lab, which benefited from strong earnings, strategic partnerships, and growth in innovative sectors, cementing their positions as key players in their respective industries.
Finsum: Finding large caps without technology could be the short term play with all of the tech volatility.
