Eric Balchunas: Confidence in U.S. government backstop for stock market under question
U.S. market intervention confidence faces doubts

Eric Balchunas, senior ETF analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence, asks how confident investors are that the U.S. government will intervene to support the U.S. stock market in the event of a severe selloff, referencing the so-called Fed Put.

The poll raises questions about market expectations relating to future government intervention during periods of market stress.

Balchunas has previously commented on shifts in the ETF industry, discussing why JPMorgan acquiring DFA could create a powerful active ETF dynasty. In a separate post, he noted that JPMorgan raised its Tesla price target from $145 to $475 as analyst coverage changed. His recent poll follows this series of observations on institutional strategies and expectations.
