UBS has raised its year-end target for the S&P 500 to 6,000 and now sees the index reaching 6,400 by mid-2026,
- citing stronger-than-expected first quarter earnings and an improving U.S. economic outlook.
- boosted its earnings per share (EPS) forecasts for the benchmark index to $260 in 2025 and $280 in 2026.
The upward revision underscores UBS’s growing confidence in the resilience of U.S. equities and the broader economy. The bank’s strategists said robust corporate results and solid GDP performance are supporting a bullish case for continued gains, even as markets digest lingering inflation and policy uncertainty.
