- There are six potential bull market surprises that could drive stocks higher, according to Bank of America.
- The bank highlighted the deflationary impact of ChatGPT and a potential end to the Russia-Ukraine war.
- "Bearish sentiment + $5 trillion of cash [is] still the 'best friends forever' for risk assets, especially stocks," BofA said.
The stock market has already staged an impressive year-to-date rally of about 8%, but those gains could balloon by the end of the year if one of Bank of America's bullish surprises plays out.
