US Equity Outlook 2026: AI Growth Vs. Valuation Risks

While secular growth drivers remain intact, returns are expected to be more moderate and selective. Leadership is likely to broaden beyond mega-cap tech into industrials, energy infrastructure, healthcare, and financials. Markets will shift from narrative-driven to execution-driven investing, with valuations facing a ceiling that caps upside potential.
