Two major Wall Street trading desks from Citigroup and JPMorgan Chase are recommending investors to focus on this year's biggest laggards in the US stock market for short-term profits. Citi's Stuart Kaiser noted that investors are under-positioned and have substantial capital available to buy these underperforming stocks. JPMorgan's Andrew Tyler added that any short squeeze could drive small- and mid-cap companies to outperform. This bullish stance comes as trade tensions ease, prompting a strategic shift toward stocks that have underperformed in 2025.
