According to BlackRock, the asset manager released its 2027 outlook report on November 9, signaling a shift in AI investment focus. Rather than betting on infrastructure construction alone, BlackRock now emphasizes assessing demand adoption rates and which companies will be actual beneficiaries. The firm noted that supply-driven economic trends identified over the past five years are already priced into markets, making future direction harder to predict.
BlackRock expressed concern that significant economic slowdown in 2027 could trigger severe market consequences. In response to these uncertainties, the firm adjusted its U.S. equities outlook to neutral in October while raising its view on U.S. Treasuries.
