Summary
Bank of America’s Global Research team said current market conditions resemble 1994, a pattern it argues could keep inflation pressures and market swings elevated through the rest of 2026.
The warning centers on how that historical analog may shape the path of interest rates and equities, giving investors a framework for judging whether policy and price pressures stay sticky.
BofA’s note adds to a broader debate over whether markets are underestimating the risk that inflation proves harder to tame even as investors look for clearer rate direction.
