In keeping with a long history of bullish forecasts, Abby Joseph Cohen told CNBC that even though her firm cut its quarterly gross domestic forecast last week from 3 percent to 2 percent, that doesn't reflect broader pessimism about where the economy and markets are heading.
"We believe that 2 percent GDP number for the quarter is something that represents special factors in the quarter and we do think economic growth will be reaccelerating toward the end of the year," Cohen said in a live interview. |
