North America - Road Ahead 2H26

Flagship

We remain constructive on the full year US equity outlook, having recently lifted

our S&P 500 base case year-end target to 8100. This is predicated on above

consensus index earnings estimates of $350 and $400 for ’26 and ’27

Iran conflict with read throughs per lower oil and, potentially, inflation concerns

sets up for a repositioning consideration. Citi Economists project mostly resilient

economic conditions, with a growing impact from AI investment. Fed rate hike

fears may be overblown. Commodities strategists see lower oil. Our Quant team

favors growth. While AI tailwinds will remain critical to the US equity narrative, we

see opportunity in stock selection across industries, thus making our Mid-Year

Road Ahead a must read for clients.
