Investment opportunities in 2026

Loading player...
After a period of relative optimism last year driven by easing inflation and expectations of lower interest rates, global markets are heading into 2026 facing renewed volatility. From geopolitical instability and uneven economic growth to stretched equity valuations and persistent currency fluctuations, investors are unlikely to enjoy a smooth ride ahead.
Morningstar believes this “bumpier ride” will separate short-term market noise from long-term investment opportunity, and that investors who position portfolios thoughtfully now can still build resilience and unlock value. Sean Neethling, Head of Investments at Morningstar South Africa joins us to unpack what lies ahead for investors in 2026.
