Vanguard Says Flip the 60/40 Portfolio for 2026: Bonds Back, AI Risks Rising

Vanguard Says Flip the 60/40 Portfolio for 2026: Bonds Back, AI Risks Rising

But heading into 2026, one of the world’s most influential asset managers is pushing a noticeably different message: the next decade may reward a more bond-heavy mix—not because growth is collapsing, but because markets are pricing in a lot of good news, especially in U.S. mega-cap tech and AI. The timing is striking. With the S&P 500 closing at a record high on Christmas Eve and investors looking ahead to 2026, the debate over whether AI enthusiasm is “the new

Oracle Corporation (NYSE: ORCL) is trading through a shortened Christmas Eve session with investors juggling two competing narratives: near-term excitement around major platform and cloud wins—including a TikTok-related U.S. venture—versus mounting scrutiny over the cost and financing of Oracle’s AI data-center buildout tied closely to OpenAI-scale demand.

Yes, the familiar leaders still matter—Nvidia, Amazon, Alphabet, Broadcom, Microsoft, and Meta—but today’s headlines show that the AI rally is increasingly influenced by factors outside product launches and quarterly guidance: U.S.-China trade policy, whether export licenses clear, how quickly data centers can get electricity, and where investors hunt for the “next AI trade” as valuation debates intensify.
