*OT* U.S. stocks to grow in 1998 despite Asia - Cohen

biz.yahoo.com

NEW YORK, Oct 24 (Reuters) - The U.S. economic and profit outlook remains solid and the consequences of slower Asian growth will likely have only a mild impact long term in the United States, said Abby Joseph Cohen, co-chair of investment policy committee at Goldman Sachs & Co.

The well-respected Wall Street guru made her comments today, following yesterday's turmoil in global stock markets, triggered by a 10 percent plunge in Hong Kong shares.

''We continue to expect the U.S. equity market to rise in price and have made no change to our 12-month target of 1050 (for S&P500 index),'' Cohen said in a report.

At midday Friday, the S&P index was off 9.16 points, or 0.96 persent, at 941.53 points.

''Preliminary results for the third quarter suggest that our $47.00 estimate for S&P 500 operating earnings this year is on track,'' Cohen said.

''We project $51.00 in 1998,'' she added.
