The article discusses BlackRock’s bullish outlook on the stock market until 2025, driven by the transformative impact of artificial intelligence (AI) and other “mega forces.” According to BlackRock, AI will be a key driver of productivity growth and corporate earnings, leading to higher equity valuations. The firm expects AI to boost economic growth by 3.5% annually over the next decade. Additionally, other “mega forces” like the energy transition, aging populations, and the rise of emerging markets are expected to create investment opportunities. However, BlackRock warns that the impact of AI could be uneven across sectors, with some industries benefiting more than others. The firm recommends investors position their portfolios to capture the upside potential of these transformative trends.
