However, concerns around an AI bubble are emerging as investments make up approximately 40% of US GDP growth in 2025, with circular deal flows among key players raising sustainability questions. Nvidia remains dominant in AI chips despite competition from Google's TPUs, which could capture up to 10% of Nvidia's data center revenue. The industry shows growing interest in workload-optimized hardware, with GPUs maintaining advantages in flexibility while ASICs offer cost efficiencies for specific tasks. Quality as a factor has underperformed year-to-date during risk-on periods but historically provides downside protection in bear markets. Quality stocks are trading below their 10-year average premium, presenting an opportunity to buy quality at relatively lower valuations. Policy rates across US, Europe and UK have moved decisively off 2023 peaks with cuts rarely seen outside recessions. Markets anticipate additional Fed rate reductions despite mixed signals, with sustained monetary easing expected to provide constructive backdrop for equities in 2026. Inflation outlook becoming increasingly divergent across regions, with US core inflation expected to remain at 2.6% in 2026 above Fed target, while Eurozone inflation expected to fall to 1.8%. US tariff expansion and fiscal policy continue to push inflation risks higher. | View | |
