This 2026, global markets are entering a more selective environment, where some themes continue to work, while others are being tested.
In this video, COL Head of Wealth Management Melvin Esteban and COL Investment Management President Marvin Fausto outline the 1Q 2026 Global Market Outlook, noting that global growth remains resilient, particularly in Asia, while US markets begin to broaden beyond AI leadership. This shift from policy-driven rallies to a more selective environment highlights the importance of a multi-asset approach and diversification to manage risks such as a potential slowdown in AI-momentum, inflation, and geopolitical challenges.
This video provides highlights only and is meant to set the context for the broader discussion. Stay tuned for our COL Global Outlook: Positioning for the Next Drivers of Growth for more insights.
