2026 is just a few weeks away, so VettaFi is hosting a 2026 Market Outlook Symposium tomorrow. The symposium goes live on Tuesday, December 9 at 11 a.m. ET. Given the unusual markets of 2025, the symposium will be an excellent opportunity. “It’s been a strong year for investments in most ETFs but advisors have lots of questions heading into 2026,” said VettaFi head of research Todd Rosenbluth, who continued, “I’m excited we have experts from Goldman Sachs, Invesco, PIMCO, Victory, and others to discuss equity and fixed income to support asset allocation decisions.”
Opportunities Abound in the 2026 Market Outlook
Amid an unusual 2025, the quality factor has seen a rise of interest. The symposium will cover different ways to access quality and its impact on portfolios.
The symposium will also look at active ETFs. Accordingly, both equities and fixed income will get coverage.
Global investing was big in 2025, with uncertainty on the domestic front. Given that, the symposium will also explore whether or not international equities will continue to outperform U.S. equities. Investors who understand the fundamental drivers of European and Asian markets will be better equipped to make allocations.
Energy, robotics, and AI will all get covered as they each could play a huge role in the shape of the economy in 2026. Robotics and AI are also facing the “great convergence,” which could see robotics becoming more relevant in day-to-day life.
Going Deep on Fixed Income
Despite recent Fed rate cuts, there’s no guarantee the cuts will continue in 2026. The opening session of the symposium will help advisors sort out where taking on credit risk is being rewarded and how to allocate their fixed income exposure.
Investors seeking a better understanding of active fixed income strategies, mortgage backed securities, or just how to think about bonds amid an evolving landscape will benefit from the expert insight on display.
