  • Investors View Greenland Headlines as Buying Opportunity Amid Market Selloff

Stocks fell sharply Tuesday, with Dow down 870 points and S&P 500 sliding 2%, triggered by President Trump's Greenland remarks and a surge in Japan's 40-year bond yields. Despite the selloff, investors say the pullback is a buying opportunity. Economic fundamentals remain strong, with expected double-digit earnings growth (12-15%) and 5.3% Q4 2025 GDP growth. Market strategists recommend focusing on large- and mid-cap financials, industrials, and utilities, while cautioning on consumer sectors.

Risks persist from rising bond yields and geopolitical uncertainties, but the consensus sees the dip as temporary, setting the stage for further upside.
