Welcome 2026! In a rare divergence, emerging markets outperformed with remarkable strength and expanding valuations. Yet,\u00a0Saudi Arabia stood as the notable exception<\/strong>. Despite its inspirational long-term vision and attractive valuation profile, the Saudi market lagged global peers, eroding its EM premium. Liquidity constraints and oil price volatility were widely blamed, triggering a broad-based de-rating. As we look ahead, 2026 emerges as a year of divergence\u2014where euphoria collides with reality. The Saudi market continues to evolve alongside domestic reforms and valuation shifts. Currently trading slightly below long\u2011term averages and progressing through the third phase of Vision 2030, Saudi equities remain connected to broader global market dynamics. Beyond cyclical drivers, structural catalysts are gaining traction. The acceleration of infrastructure tied to\u00a0World Cup 2034<\/strong>,\u00a0Expo 2030<\/strong>, and\u00a0Asian Cup 2027<\/strong>, combined with AI ambitions and a growing tourism focus, offer compelling upside beyond 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
