S&P 500 earnings yield jumps above 5%, signaling potential rally ahead.

The S&P 500's earnings yield rose to 5.28% as of October 16, 2026, a level historically linked to subsequent market rallies. Analysts expect the S&P 500's earnings per share to grow from $365.70 in 2026 to $492.62 by 2028, indicating strong future earnings growth. This increase in earnings yield suggests attractive valuation and potential upside for investors. Meanwhile, some emerging market equity positions were reduced recently, reflecting portfolio adjustments amid these market conditions.
