Morningstar highlighted that, as of Sept. 30, 2025, the US equity market was trading at 3% premium over its fair value estimates. With the market trading slightly higher than its fair value and ~40% of market capitalization concentrated in just 10 mega-caps, whose valuations remain largely leveraged to the AI build-out, the firm opines that there is no margin for error in deviating from its strong AI forecasts.

Headwinds and Tailwinds for the US Markets

Morningstar highlighted that the favourable momentum from AI buildout, as well as expected monetary easing, is just barely mitigating the negative macroeconomic headwinds and inflationary concerns. On the positive side, AI spending has been supporting in maintaining growth, which might have faltered otherwise.

Furthermore, the US Fed is expected to cut rates twice by the end of the year, and long-term rates are expected to decline. The 10-year Treasury is expected to average 3.9% in 2026. That being said, over the upcoming 4 quarters, slowing consumption growth, sluggish new homebuilding, and fading stimulus measures would be impacting the economy, believes Morningstar.

Amidst such trends, let us now have a look at the 14 Best Long-Term Growth Stocks to Buy Now.
