Q3 earnings growth tracking at 28% and full-year 2026 at 32% provides the fundamental fuel to push the index to new record highs by year-end from the current ~1.5% below peak
“we're expecting up 32% for 2026... that's enough to get this market into new record territory by year end”

Ai Infra
bullish
Bloomberg TV (uncut) · uncut_tv
AI buildout requires physical data centers and energy capacity that take years to construct, creating a multi-year capex cycle unlike short software or chip cycles, sustaining the investment case well into 2027
“building a data center, building new energy productive capacity, that's years, that's not months”

Em Equities
bullish
Bloomberg TV (uncut) · uncut_tv
AI buildout is happening as rapidly in Asia as the US, offering a tremendous earnings growth story at multiples that do not require paying a premium

International Dev
bullish
Bloomberg TV (uncut) · uncut_tv
Developed market earnings growth is running well above 10-year historical averages while multiples are only at 10-year averages, offering an attractive growth-at-reasonable-price setup that US equities do not provide
“you're getting earnings growth that's well in excess of 10-year averages”

CONSUMER DISCRETIONARY SECTOR
bullish
Fox Claman Countdown · video
High-income consumers are still spending, as confirmed by reports from financial services companies, airlines, and industrials, and the wealth effect from stock-market all-time highs should continue to bleed through to consumer discretionary stocks
“we still have the wealth and income at the stock market at all-time highs to continue the spending trend”
INVESTOR ALERT: Discretionary sector sends mixed signals
