Our Year Ahead views – points and counterpoints
Manage episode 524703261 series 3354346
Earlier this month, BofA Global Research published a note with 10 of the key views outlined in 2026 macro Year Ahead reports. This podcast features seven strategists and economists discussing certain of those themes and offering the primary risks to the views that they foresee. We start with our view on U.S. growth, where we're more bullish than consensus, then offer support for that optimism with a take on why we don't yet see an AI bubble. We then discuss our constructive outlook for emerging markets but our more muted view on the S&P 500. We offer our take on why it's important for policymakers to keep inflation down and what that means for bonds, share our official view on the 10Y and finish with what all of that means for U.S. housing.
You may also enjoy listening to the Merrill Perspectives podcast, featuring conversations on the big stories, news and trends affecting your everyday financial life.
