UBS: Expects US Stocks to Continue Rising Through 2026, Advises Investors to Maintain Allocation
On December 22, UBS Group stated that the U.S. stock market’s upward trajectory in 2025 will extend into 2026, fueled by robust corporate earnings, accommodative monetary policy, and a clearer policy outlook.
The bank noted that corporate profits—especially in the tech sector—remain strong, keeping current valuations reasonable.
UBS forecasts a 10% rise in S&P 500 earnings, which could push the index to roughly 7,700 points. Further Federal Reserve rate cuts and the appointment of a new chair may also provide additional market support. Clarity on future tariff policies is helping to reduce uncertainty.
Based on this, UBS maintains its “attractive” rating for the U.S. stock market and advises investors to stay invested to capitalize on ongoing growth opportunities.

Kalshi: Market Prediction Outperforms Wall Street Consensus on Inflation Predictions
**December 22 (CoinDesk) — Prediction markets outperformed Wall Street consensus forecasts for inflation over 25 months, with their average error 40% lower than traditional economist and analyst expectations, according to a study from prediction market platform Kalshi.**
Kalshi’s research found the edge stems from aggregating diverse trader information via economic incentives, tapping the "wisdom of the crowd" to react more nimbly to shifting conditions. The findings position market-based predictions as a valuable complementary tool for institutional decision-makers, especially amid high uncertainty.
The platform compared its inflation forecasts (focused on year-over-year CPI changes) with Wall Street consensus from February 2023 to mid-2025. Traders’ accuracy outpaced traditional forecasts by 40% on average — and by up to 67% when actual data deviated sharply from expectations.
