By Public Technologies
  • JPMorgan's 2027 outlook, released Oct. 19, 2026, projects 7% annual returns for a USD 60/40 stock-bond portfolio over 10-15 years.
  • Allocating 30% to diversified alternatives raises the portfolio's projected return to 7.5%.
  • The alternatives allocation boosts the Sharpe ratio by 21% versus a simple 60/40 portfolio as higher stock-bond correlations increase diversification needs.
  • U.S. large-cap equity return forecasts rise 80 basis points to 7.5%, supported by technology adoption and productivity gains.
  • Higher real yields lift global aggregate bond return forecasts to 5.3%, the highest in two decades.
