The bank expects global equities to rise by around 15% through next year, led by resilient corporate profitability and long-term investment themes such as AI-driven power demand, healthcare innovation, and the energy transition. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>(Tap or click the headline above to read this story with all of the links <\/strong>to our background as well as external sources.)<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The US is still the engine of global equity returns<\/strong>, says UBS, which anchors its 2026 outlook in the US, where strong earnings momentum \u2014 including a prediction the S&P 500\u2019s earnings per share will rise 10% y-o-y to USD 305 \u2014 supports the bank\u2019s call that the index could reach 7.7k by year-end. The Magnificent 7 remain central to that view, with UBS estimating that the group will contribute nearly half of earnings growth next year as AI adoption, higher corporate investment, and supportive policy continue to drive profitability.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>UBS also flags several sectors that it thinks are entering stronger phases.<\/strong> Healthcare stands out thanks to policy stability and the continued boom in obesity meds. Utilities are poised to benefit from rising power demand tied to AI infrastructure, while their valuations remain at an 18% reduction from historical averages. Banks are expected to deliver more stable returns, with sector-wide return on equity rising toward 11.5% and balance sheets still looking solid.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Europe also shows encouraging signs.<\/strong> UBS upgraded Europe to \u201cAttractive,\u201d pointing to a sharper earnings rebound \u2014 predicted to be up 7% y-o-y in 2026 and 18% y-o-y in 2027 \u2014 and cheaper valuations, with equities still trading at a 22% reduction from historical norms. Easier financial conditions after 200 bps of European Central Bank cuts and Germany\u2019s investment plans also strengthen the case.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Investors should also look towards emerging markets<\/strong>, with UBS highlighting emerging markets as offering a way to get diverse exposure to AI and semiconductors outside of the US, as tech now makes up over 40% of the MSCI EM index. Fed easing and a softer USD should help deliver \u201chigh single-digit\u201d returns by end-2026, according to the lender.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>China\u2019s improvements in tech innovation, stronger domestic liquidity, and resilient <\/strong><strong>earnings have set the stage for further upside. <\/strong>Valuations are above historical averages, but remain well below prior cycle peaks, leaving room for expansion as fundamentals improve. Policy continues to favor advanced manufacturing and technology under the Five-Year Plan, while rising domestic investor participation is adding support. UBS sees US-China tensions as a source of volatility \u2014 but also as a chance to add exposure on dips.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Commodities are another bright spot in the 2026 outlook.<\/strong> UBS expects attractive returns across major commodity groups due to tightening supply-demand balances and ongoing geopolitical risk. In precious metals, the bank sees continued upside supported by persistent official-sector buying, fiscal uncertainty, and global risk hedging. In energy, 2025 underperformance sets up a rebound once non-OPEC+ supply growth slows and demand recovers through mid-2026. Industrial metals \u2014 led by copper \u2014 should benefit from structural shortages tied to the energy transition and recent supply disruptions. Agriculture, which slumped through 2025, becomes more appealing next year as tight cocoa and coffee markets, weather risks, and low livestock inventories support prices.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The bank recommends maintaining 30-70% of portfolios in equities depending on risk <\/strong><strong>appetite<\/strong>, with the US representing at least half of any global allocation. Up to 30% of equity exposure can be dedicated to long-term themes like AI infrastructure, health-span innovation, and decarbonization. Commodities may play a tactical role of up to 5% in diversified portfolios, while factor-based and systematic strategies can complement regional positioning.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">MARKETS
