Fundstrat\u2019s head of technical strategy says 2026 could be a rougher year for the stock market.<\/p>\n
Mark Newton says in a new interview<\/a> on Thoughtful Money that there are a couple of different negative factors heading deeper into 2026.<\/p>\n \u201cI think we\u2019re setting up for much more of a choppy year than we\u2019ve seen in years past. We\u2019ve had now three straight years of over 15% gains. Over 20% for the first two and now last year being up 17%. Heading into a mid-term election year, normally that does tend to be the weakest of the four years that make up the presidential cycle.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n Newton predicts that the market will witness a downtick starting in late February, which could last into October, although the strategist notes that it \u201cwon\u2019t be a straight shot.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m actually expecting potentially a 15-20% decline, which starts in late February or early March, and takes us down into May or June, we rally into the summer, and then we have a third quarter correction that largely marks the end of this consolidation.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n Newton notes that sentiment has started to reach higher levels of optimism, and he thinks sentiment could reach a speculative level by the end of the month. The strategist also points out that tech giants have witnessed a \u201cnoticeable slowdown\u201d in momentum.<\/p>\n \u201cTech has just gotten very overbought, and I think that this is going to be the year where we do see some weakness in technology.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n Follow us on X<\/a>, Facebook<\/a> and Telegram<\/a><\/span><\/em>  <\/p>\n Generated Image: Midjourney<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Fundstrat\u2019s head of technical strategy says 2026 could be a rougher year for the stock market.
