UBS raised its December 2026 FTSE 100 target to 11,000 from 10,500, citing stronger earnings outlook.
UBS lifted its UK equities earnings growth forecast to 11% for 2026, up from 5%, driven by higher energy sector earnings.
The FTSE 100 trades at 13.2x forward P/E, above its 1990 median of 12.8x, with ten stocks delivering over 75% of returns.
UBS notes limited UK upside versus global markets due to low exposure to AI, power, longevity and defence themes, favoring cyclical sectors.
