Bank of America Projects 12% Upside for Nifty by December 2026
Bank of America Securities has shifted to a bullish outlook on the Nifty, projecting a 12% rise to 26,200 by December 2026 after two years of caution. The brokerage noted that five of eight previously identified risks—such as crude oil prices, rupee depreciation, weak monsoon, commodity prices, and RBI rate hikes—have largely been priced in. Remaining risks could cause a 7% downside in a bear case, but a base case anticipates market recovery and growth. BofA remains cautious on small- and midcap stocks amid ongoing uncertainties.
