Panmure Liberum Forecasts S&P 500 Drop to 5,000
British brokerage Panmure Liberum predicts the benchmark S&P 500 will retreat to 5,000 points by the end of 2027, representing a decline of more than 35 percent from its previous close of 7,722.72. The firm warns that the equity bull market, which began in October 2022 and has climbed 12.8 percent this year, may conclude sooner than anticipated due to rising bond yields and higher interest rates. Joachim Klement, a research analyst at Panmure Liberum, notes that persistent increases in yields and rates could abruptly halt the current rally.
Why it matters
The stark prediction runs counter to the optimistic outlooks held by several other brokerages tracking the market. US equities have maintained resilience despite stubborn inflation, rising bond yields, higher interest rates, and cooling optimism around the artificial intelligence boom. Upcoming third-quarter earnings reports and corporate outlooks for 2027 will test whether current corporate strength and economic data can sustain the market.
