Analyst Predicts S&P 500 Could Reach 9000 by the End of 2026
An Evercore ISI analyst presented a forecast for the growth of the S&P 500 index, which is expected to be fueled by rising shares of technology companies associated with AI technology.
A shift in investor interest could trigger capital outflows from other sectors of the stock market and the crypto market.
Evercore ISI analyst Julian Emanuel set a base target for the S&P 500 at 7,750 by the end of 2026.
In addition, he outlined an optimistic scenario in which the index could reach 9,000 thanks to the growth of technology stocks, communications services companies, and consumer goods companies driven by the development of artificial intelligence.
According to the strategist, the combination of rapid technological transformation and shifting geopolitical dynamics is creating a broader range of possible market scenarios than investors expect.

Perplexity data.
Emanuel compared the current situation to the major economic and technological shifts observed during the 1920s and the technology boom of the late 1990s.
In his opinion, post-pandemic fiscal stimulus measures, strong money supply growth, and rising productivity driven by artificial intelligence could reshape the economy by the end of the decade.
Evercore ISI forecasts productivity growth of up to 3% by the end of the decade, depending on the extent of AI adoption across various industries.
Expanding on the idea of AI integration into different sectors, it can be assumed that part of cryptocurrency trading will eventually be conducted by autonomous agents.
Without human biases, autonomous agents may view cryptocurrency as the most logical and efficient medium of exchange.
Interest in technology stocks could temporarily pull capital away from the crypto market and toward the stock market, although this would most likely represent only a temporary shift in investor sentiment.
