Core conclusion · Tlines extraction
Danske Bank maintains a constructive global growth view despite energy-driven headwinds, expecting AI investment to support activity for at least a year. Central bank paths diverge: ECB keeps rates at 2.50% through 2027, Fed hikes twice; FX and bond forecasts reflect a stronger USD, lower SEK/NOK, and higher US rates. Equities are favored over bonds given earnings compounding.

- AI-related investment is boosting manufacturing globally, offsetting energy drags on consumption.
- ECB expected to hike once more to 2.50% and hold through 2027; Fed expected to hike twice.
- Equities likely to outperform bonds absent a new negative catalyst.
