Morgan Stanley suggests a recent divergence between gold’s sharp decline and the stock market’s resilience, particularly since the start of the Iran conflict, is a bullish sign for equities. The firm’s Chief Equity Strategist, Mike Wilson, highlights the surge in the S&P 500-to-gold ratio as a constructive market development, indicating capital is flowing into stocks rather than safe havens. This trend challenges the narrative that markets are underestimating geopolitical risks, pointing instead to the broader resilience of the U.S. economy.
