AI investment, evolving earnings leadership, and shifting global dynamics are redefining stock market trends as investors enter 2026. Companies are deploying unprecedented capital toward data centers, compute, and productivity-enhancing technologies, while rate cuts and supply-chain realignment reshape the macro backdrop. These forces are changing how fundamentals, valuations, and sector growth patterns show up in equity markets.In this episode of The Bid, host Oscar Pulido speaks with Carrie King, Global CIO of BlackRock's Fundamental Equities group, about the major drivers influencing the 2026 equity outlook. Carrie breaks down why high-level valuations may mask improved corporate quality, how AI-related investment is broadening beyond semiconductors, and why the gap between megacap earnings and the rest of the market may begin to narrow.They also explore how global monetary easing is benefiting emerging markets, why Japan's structural reforms continue to support its equity story, and how diversification is becoming more challenging in a market shaped by a few powerful megaforces. Carrie explains what this means for sector positioning, volatility, and where long-term investors may find underappreciated opportunities.Key moments in this episode:00:00 Introduction: Can Stocks Maintain Momentum in 2026?03:29 AI's Dominance in the Market09:34 Global Investment Trends and Opportunities12:06 Earnings Growth and Sector Performance15:36 Diversification Strategies for Investors17:10 New Year's Resolutions for Investors18:59 Conclusion and Upcoming EpisodesKey insights include:· How AI-driven spending is reshaping earnings patterns and stock market trends· Why equity valuations may be better anchored than headlines suggest· Where the “other 493” may see accelerating earnings growth· How global rate cuts and supply-chain shifts are supporting EM and Japan· Why diversification requires new approaches in a megaforce-driven market· Which sectors—industrials, travel, and healthcare—may offer overlooked potentialstock market trends, AI investing, megaforces, capital markets, equity markets, global investing, sector rotationSources:Written Disclosures In Episode Description:This content is for informational purposes only and is not an offer or a solicitation.

Given the financial sector's current low valuations compared to the S&P 500, Ben predicts a strong 2026 for bank stocks. He also anticipates a surge in banking M&A activity, driven by a more favorable regulatory environment under the Trump administration, citing the Fifth Third Bancorp (FITB) acquisition and Huntington Bancshares (HBAN) deals.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Cathy Seifert urges investors to note BlackRock's (BLK) strong numbers in several sectors of its earnings. She believes the report signals a resilient banking sector even as big bank stocks struggle to find their footing. Cathy also notes 2026 being the year of "deal digestion," something else she sees as a benefit for BlackRock. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

The bulk of big bank earnings are largely in investor hands. Macrae Sykes says the "banking sector's in great shape for 2026." His top pick is Wells Fargo (WFC) due to its earnings growth and recovery from antitrust suits. Matt Maley says the stronger point to take away from the reports was the wealth management sector, but he's not as bullish on investment banking. He believes Bank of America (BAC) emerged as a strong stock pick after its recent pullback. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Cory Johnson says the "most important participant" in the AI trade signaling that we're just in the starting stages is bullish for many aspects of tech. TSMC posted strong earnings and record net profit alongside gross margins Cory calls "incredible." When it comes to foundry competition, he notes Intel (INTC) serves as a competitor as long as it continues to shape up its turnaround story. Cory later talks about how TMSC's goals of lessening power demand is also bullish for the AI industry. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

When it comes to trading activity in the last few sessions, Kevin Green says it's largely "what you want to see" as underwhelming sectors retake command. Now, it appears to be tech's turn. KG turns to TSMC's (TSM) strong earnings giving much-needed muscle to the AI trade. However, it's more of a mixed picture when it comes to big banks after Morgan Stanley (MS), Goldman Sachs (GS), and BlackRock (BLK) reported. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Headlines fail to move markets as investors shrug off noise. Mike Dickson discusses how the market is more focused on earnings season and a solid economic backdrop. Small and mid-cap stocks are outpacing large caps with substantial earnings growth expectations. This, coupled with consumer strength and fiscal support, sets the stage for smaller-cap cyclicals to benefit, even if the Federal Reserve doesn't cut rates as aggressively as anticipated.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

In corporate development and finance, the excitement of an acquisition often masks the underlying risks. Financial Due Diligence (FDD) is the structured investigation into a company's total financial health. It is the crucial "forensic" step that moves a deal from celebration to investigation, determining whether a transaction is a winning strategy or a multi-billion dollar mistake.The 5 Pillars of Financial Due DiligenceTo assess risk and validate value, finance teams focus on five critical areas in the financial data room:1. Quality of Earnings (QoE)This is the bedrock of FDD. It separates "accounting profits" from repeatable, sustainable core performance. Teams look for Normalization Adjustments, stripping away one-time legal settlements or non-market salaries to find the true Adjusted EBITDA.2. Revenue and Customer AnalysisHigh revenue numbers can be deceiving. Analysts dig into:Customer Concentration Risk: If one customer accounts for 40% of revenue, the valuation must be discounted due to instability.Churn Rates: Understanding why customers leave and how long they stay.Revenue Quality: Differentiating between recurring contracts and one-time projects.3. Working Capital and Cash Flow HealthThis pillar determines if paper profits convert to usable cash. Red flags include:Accounts Receivable Aging: Customers paying slower and slower, masking potential bad debt.Inventory Turnover: Massive buildups that suck cash out of the business without guaranteed future sales.4. Debt and Off-Balance Sheet ItemsLurking "landmines" can blow up deal economics. Analysts search for:Pending litigation or unknown tax exposures.Underfunded pension liabilities.Environmental cleanup costs.5. Forecast AssessmentEvery target company presents a "conservative" growth story. FDD stress-tests these assumptions by modeling the unit economics (e.g., Customer Acquisition Cost vs. Lifetime Value) and building conservative "downside" scenarios.The Role of FP&A: The Bridge to IntegrationIf you are in FP&A, your role is pivotal. You are the bridge between historical numbers and the forward-looking plan. Your team must:Tear apart growth claims: If a company claims 20% growth, what is the required hiring plan and CapEx?Scrutinize Synergies: Cost synergies (office closures) are reliable; revenue synergies (cross-selling) are highly speculative and should be heavily discounted in models.Final Strategic ThoughtFDD is not a box-checking exercise; it is the firewall that protects shareholder value. Master it by prioritizing the Quality of Earnings and never letting deal enthusiasm override forensic investigation.

On the second day of bank earnings, Carl Quintanilla, David Faber and Sara Eisen explored why shares of Bank of America, Wells Fargo and Citigroup fell in reaction to their respective quarterly results. The anchors discussed President Trump's latest criticism of Jerome Powell in wake of the Justice Department's criminal probe of the Fed chair. The November Producer Price Index came in hotter-than-expected year-on-year, but tamer than forecasts on a month-on-month basis. Also in focus: Trump speaks out on JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon, sources tell David that Netflix is likely to make its deal to acquire Warner Bros. assets all-cash, weakness in software stocks, oil prices hit October highs as Trump considers ordering military strikes in Iran. Squawk on the Street Disclaimer Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode of Excess Returns, we welcome back Liz Ann Sonders to discuss the evolving market and economic landscape heading into 2026. The conversation focuses on why this cycle feels fundamentally different, how instability rather than uncertainty is shaping investor behavior, and what that means for inflation, the labor market, Federal Reserve policy, and equity markets. Liz Ann breaks down the growing bifurcation across the economy and markets, the shift away from the Great Moderation era, and how investors should think about diversification, earnings, valuations, and AI-driven capital spending in a more volatile and fragmented environment.Main topics covered• Why today's environment is better described as unstable rather than uncertain• The K-shaped economy and growing bifurcation across consumers, sectors, and markets• Inflation dynamics and why 2 percent may now be a floor rather than a ceiling• How deglobalization, supply chains, and tariffs are changing the inflation regime• The shifting relationship between stocks and bonds• Hard data versus soft data and what sentiment is really telling us• The labor market's headwinds and tailwinds, including immigration and hiring trends• AI's impact on productivity, jobs, and capital spending• The AI capex boom and how it differs from the late 1990s tech cycle• Earnings growth, valuation compression, and market broadening• Rolling recessions versus traditional economic downturns• Federal Reserve challenges under a conflicted dual mandate• Why factor-based investing matters more than sector or style callsTimestamps00:00 Introduction and why this cycle feels different02:00 Uncertainty versus instability in markets03:30 The K-shaped economy and market bifurcation07:00 Market broadening, small caps, and diversification09:00 Inflation measurement challenges and data reliability12:00 Why inflation may stay above 2 percent15:00 Stock and bond correlations across cycles17:30 Labor market crosscurrents and immigration effects20:45 AI, productivity, and entry-level job pressures24:30 Sentiment versus fundamentals in markets27:30 Retail trading, behavior, and market psychology31:00 Rolling recessions and post-pandemic distortions38:00 Technology, cyclicality, and sector rotation40:30 The Fed's policy dilemma and internal disagreements45:00 AI capital spending and comparisons to the dot-com era51:00 Earnings growth versus valuation expansion55:00 Factors, GARP, and portfolio positioning for 2026

Ahead of the halfway mark to the trading week, Kevin Green turns to market movers he's bracing for. One is a potential decision from the U.S. Supreme Court on tariffs. KG tells investors to eye consumer staples if a decision hits the wire. On the earnings front, he turns to the mixed reaction in big banks from Bank of America (BAC), Citigroup (C) and Wells Fargo's (BAC) reports.

Eric Sterner and Pierre Buhler break down big bank earnings. Eric notes that consumers still look healthy at an aggregate level, with write-offs and provisions for credit losses lower. He also expects M&A activity to be strong this year, boosting bank revenue. Pierre noticed a slowdown and is worried around investment banking. He's also looking for warning signs around credit. They both caution against capping credit card rates, arguing that it will significantly hurt lower-end consumers.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Markets appear strong as we head into 2026, but beneath the surface, risks may be rising faster than returns. Each January, CEO and CIO of Crossmark Global Investments Bob Doll joins us on the show at Faith and Finance to offer an annual outlook, and this year he characterizes the environment as a “high-risk bull market”—a market capable of gains but vulnerable to setbacks and volatility.Looking back to 2025, Doll believes his predictions were roughly “seven out of ten.” Corporate earnings proved far more resilient than many expected, and with the Federal Reserve avoiding aggressive tightening, markets continued to climb. Earnings, Doll notes, remain the lifeblood of stocks: as long as profits grow and the Fed is not hostile, equity markets tend to trend upward.For 2026, Doll's first prediction is that U.S. real GDP growth will improve modestly—from about 2% to roughly 2.5%. He attributes much of that to a large government spending package passed in an election year, providing stimulus to both households and businesses.However, inflation remains stubborn. Doll does not expect the Fed to reach its 2% target unless a recession occurs—something he does not foresee. Instead, he anticipates inflation closer to 3%, making “affordability” a defining political issue, especially around healthcare and housing, where structural challenges remain unresolved.On interest rates, Doll expects the 10-year Treasury yield to fluctuate in a narrow range—from the high 3% area to the mid-4% area—while credit spreads widen modestly. For bond portfolios, he favors short- to intermediate-maturity bonds over long-duration bonds.Corporate earnings should remain strong in 2026, though not at the exceptional pace of 2025. With consensus forecasts near 14% earnings growth—almost double the historical norm—Doll expects solid but not spectacular performance. As a result, he anticipates single-digit stock market returns, not another year of outsized double-digit gains.Sector-wise, Doll sees continued strength in financials, technology, and communication services—areas tied closely to artificial intelligence—while materials, discretionary, and utilities may lag. International stocks could also surprise investors. If they outperform U.S. equities for a second consecutive year, it would be the first such streak in two decades. Stronger liquidity, improved earnings abroad (especially in emerging markets), and potential dollar weakness all contribute—even though many Americans invest little overseas.Artificial intelligence remains a powerful driver of productivity and market speculation, though Doll expects volatility as investors sort out the true winners and losers.Faith-based investing, he believes, will continue its momentum as more individuals, advisors, and institutions seek alignment between values and capital. Politically, Doll predicts Republicans retain the Senate but lose the House, constraining major legislative ambitions.If 2026 proves to be a high-risk bull market, Doll's takeaway is straightforward: remain diversified, stay invested, and practice patient stewardship through uncertainty.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:My husband and I are at retirement age, and we have four retirement accounts: three from former employers and one Vanguard IRA.

With earnings season underway and markets stretched, conditions suggest rising market turbulence as price discovery accelerates. JPMorgan Chase kicked things off with a technical earnings miss after an extraordinary multi-year rally, highlighting how stretched both individual stocks and the broader market have become. While markets remain on a buy signal and continue to hover near all-time highs, deviations from key moving averages and increasingly overbought conditions suggest a near-term pullback would be healthy—and not unexpected. Financial heavyweights such as Goldman Sachs and BlackRock remain central to the AI buildout narrative as capital providers, which could continue to support the sector longer term. With earnings estimates having been lowered ahead of this reporting season, beat rates should remain favorable. Investors can remain long equities, but this is also an opportune moment to rebalance, take partial profits, and manage risk. Any volatility-driven pullback may present a more attractive entry point for the next leg of the rally.
