This was on CNBC pro, but the following link is not paywall:

"Portfolio Outlook Is the Best "Since 2010": JPMorgan's Kelly"
“Today, … opportunities for long-term investors with capital to deploy are the best we’ve seen since 2010,” the report continues. In fact, allowing for a 16% drop in 60/40 portfolio this year and assuming a consistent 7.2% yearly return, a balanced portfolio should recover in about three years, it explains."
“Our forecast annual return for a [U.S. dollar-denominated] 60/40 stock-bond portfolio over the next 10–15 years leaps from 4.30% last year to 7.20%. Over the last 25 years, the rolling 10-year return for this portfolio has averaged 6.10%,” the report states.
As someone whose "plan" needs 5-6% - of course, this sounds lovely.
But I have serious concerns and yes, the world always has ups and downs but let's look at the starting line-up on planet earth:
USA, Russia, Japan, China, Britain. Ok throw in some France and even some India.
And frankly - there's so much more negative than positive vis a vis relations between some of the players.....AND , well, internally - there's either glaring negatives within said nations, or quiet negatives within the nations. Anything from resource shortages, to internal tribalisms, to territorial grabbing plans, to subsequent abandoning of pacifist doctrines (see Japan - it's quietly happening). Oh - and this little thing called solvency be it for public debts, pension systems and to top it off.....if one thinks things are a bit tense now - I wonder what happens if many lose employment to inevitable A.I.
I am not criticizing nor endorsing any nation, political party, whatever. I'm just saying if an alien rocketed into earth and did an initial "Earth 101" social studies class...the little green guy may conclude that these aren't the regular geopolitical ebbs and flows but rather, have the makings of something more serious and grand.
Then on the other hand - I see Millennials and Gen Z'ers - HUGE populations still starting out to buy homes and cars. I see people in the BILLIONS - be it China, India - many of them still dont have a smartphone, and many may one day rise up the ladder to buy things, medicines, cars, drink a Coke whatever. Ditto Africa Infrastructures will be rebuilt.
So in that latter paragraph I see great reason to be optimistic for a slow and steady decent ROI. But geopolitically..... well, it's unsettling to say the least.
Does anyone see these same concerns? The opposite? Thanks for reading.
