Emerging Markets: Strong start in 2026 – HSBC
HSBC's report highlights a robust start for Emerging Markets (EM) in 2026, with the MSCI EM index rising approximately 11% in USD terms. This performance contrasts with a mere 2% increase for the MSCI US index. The report attributes this outperformance to improvements in regional structural stories and company fundamentals, alongside a decline in the US Dollar.

"Overall, EMs are proving again in 2026 that they can be both lucky and good, with the tailwind of dollar weakness acting as a catalyst for attractive structural stories and improving fundamentals and profits."
"Amid further signs that global investors have cooled towards dollar assets – with the dollar itself falling sharply last week – the EM momentum trend is accelerating."
"Some EM specialists point to structural reforms and the prospect of lower rates providing relief to the fiscal outlook as positives."
