Credit Suisse strategist: "we have an economy that is healthy and creating a ton of jobs"

We think stocks are going to continue to deliver over the next several years — high single digits or better returns... The real key here is that we have an economy that is healthy and creating a ton of jobs... I think the feeling among investors is anything that causes any near-term pain is inherently bad, but it’s very possible that as a result of this [trade war] we’d end up with more open access to Chinese markets in the long run, and a better situation for intellectual rights. And if those are the outcomes, then yes, this will increase volatility for a period of time, but it’s possible the results here are positive ones.

I think all the people who are waiting to buy on a dip this year, a lot of them waited too long. The market is very attractively valued, and the economy is in good shape and corporate profits were fine.
