Renowned financial expert Tom Lee has forecasted that the S&P 500 index will rise to 7700 points by 2026, indicating the continuation of the current bullish market trend. This increase represents an approximate growth of 11.8 percent and would mark the market’s fourth consecutive year of gains. Lee attributes this growth primarily to the “Wall of Worry” phenomenon, which balances investor fear and optimism. He also emphasized the significant role of the technology sector, particularly advancements in artificial intelligence, in stabilizing the market. Additionally, potential accommodative monetary policies by the U.S. Federal Reserve are seen as supportive factors for economic growth and this positive trend.
In 2025, the S&P 500 experienced a 17 percent increase, with the communication services and technology sectors growing by 33 and 27 percent respectively. Lee remains optimistic about the performance of technology, artificial intelligence, cryptocurrencies, materials, energy, and financial sectors in 2026. The S&P 500 is a key benchmark of the U.S. stock market, representing the performance of 500 large companies, and its performance significantly influences global financial markets while reflecting overall investor economic health. Given current growth trends and innovations in technology, investors are hopeful the index will remain strong, though global economic conditions and potential changes in monetary policies could impact market direction.
