Prediction: This Is Where the S&P 500 Will Finish 2026
Multiple factors could weigh down the markets in the latter months of the year, including rising interest rates, midterm elections, and the war in Iran.
The S&P 500(SNPINDEX:^GSPC) is up over 14% this year, as it's on track for another above-average performance. Historically, its annual returns are typically around 10%. This would be the fourth consecutive year that it's outperformed its long-run average.
However, I think there will be some softness in the months ahead. By the end of the year, I predict it'll finish below 7,500. That would still be a near-10% gain from last year, when it finished at around 6,845. But I don't think that the conditions will remain this rosy for long. Here's why.
