Markets are navigating a complex mix of geopolitical conflicts, uneven growth and shifting trade policies. Our Midyear Outlook cuts through the noise to help you focus on what matters most to investors.

Join portfolio managers Martin Jacobs and Chitrang Purani as they examine the complex forces shaping the investment landscape in 2026, as well as their long-term views on the economy and markets.

You’ll gain perspective on:

  • How economic growth is holding up amid geopolitical uncertainty and where it may be slowing
  • What a shift toward easy monetary policy could mean as inflation and labor trends evolve
  • Where AI is creating real opportunity and why selectivity matters more than ever
  • How bonds can provide income, diversification and resilience in a more volatile environment
