BlackRock Investment Institute Overweight on U.S. and Japanese Equities Amid AI Growth

The BlackRock Investment Institute says it remains overweight on U.S. and Japanese equities. Citing strong support from the artificial intelligence (AI) boom, resilient corporate earnings. And healthy balance sheets among major technology companies.
The firm also expects continued Federal Reserve easing into 2026 and reduced policy uncertainty. Which could help sustain momentum in U.S. stocks and support investor risk appetite. BlackRock also favors Japanese equities, pointing to strong nominal economic growth, rising corporate capital spending, and ongoing corporate governance reforms that are improving shareholder value.
The institute noted that investors may need a more dynamic portfolio strategy as global markets are increasingly shaped by structural forces. Such as digital disruption, geopolitical fragmentation, and demographic changes
