Article Abstract:

There is general sense of self-confidence on Wall Street. Within this, confidence in the exceptional performance of US companies and of the US economy is a key element.

Investors will have to accept that very strongly performing companies may co-exist with a less strong stock market. There is no doubt that the US economy will enter a period of slower growth, but it remains to be seen whether companies will use this to boost their productivity.
