Morgan Stanley strategist Wilson: Corporate profits in 2026 will drive a steady rise in the US stock market

Golden Finance reports that some Wall Street strategists believe that strong corporate earnings in 2026 will drive the rise of U.S. stocks, and the risks surrounding interest rate outlook uncertainties have proven to be only short-term disruptions. Morgan Stanley’s Michael Wilson stated that there are “obvious signs” that corporate earnings are recovering, and U.S. companies are enjoying stronger pricing power. Wilson wrote in the report, “Although recent price movements have been pressured by Fed guidance and government shutdowns, these are only temporary resistances. Earnings growth in 2026 will propel the strong performance of U.S. stocks.”
