Ivan Illan, Chief Investment Officer at AWAIM, discusses the paradox in the U.S. equity market as of mid-2026, highlighting strong earnings growth in the S&P 500 but elevated valuations. He advocates for a selective approach to U.S. small and mid-cap (SMID) companies, noting significant dispersion within the asset class that presents opportunities for active managers. However, he warns of risks related to debt refinancing and emphasizes the potential for well-positioned firms to gain market share. The manufacturing sector shows signs of recovery, further supporting selective SMID investment.

RBC forecasts the S&P 500 index to reach 7,900 points in 12 months, suggesting a 7.7% upside. The bank warns of potential market pullbacks of 5% to 10%, but a significant decline of 14% to 20% is unlikely unless recession risks emerge. This outlook is based on AI-driven earnings growth, with risks from inflation, interest rates, and geopolitical factors. RBC remains optimistic about the U.S. stock market and growth stocks.
