The S&P 500 is on a "parallel path" to more gains, according to Citi.

At on end, according to Scott Chronert, U.S. equity strategist at the bank, there's mega-cap growth and artificial intelligence. On the other side, there's the rest of the market.

Now, investors are wondering which can catalyze the next leg higher. The answer could be a combination of both.

"Our view on this is mostly intuitive," Chronert wrote to clients. "Using the old 'it takes a village' analogy, the healthiest path to higher index levels is a combination of Growth/Tech leadership persisting but with other areas of the market additive more so than has been the case this past year."

Chronert also said that investors can expect upside to be driven by a smaller number of companies that detract from growth.

KeyBanc has turned bullish on Duolingo, upgrading shares to overweight from sector weight on Sunday. Its price target of $460 per share implies nearly 41% upside from Friday's close.

The digital education app has underperformed amid concerns its business is peaking and that artificial intelligence will contract its total addressable market, analyst Justin Patterson said in a note to clients.

"In our view, the AI backlash was a bump in the road, and a combination of product … and viral marketing efforts creates upside risk to estimates over the next 12 months," he wrote. "Further, price optimizations remain an untapped growth lever that could aid growth and profitability."

The stock was up nearly 5% in morning trading.
