This report, prepared by Vanguard’s Global Economics and Markets Team, offers a comprehensive outlook on financial markets as of October 2025, combining macroeconomic insights with long-term return projections.

  • Rare dual rally: Gold (+60%) and U.S. equities (+13%) are rising together—an unusual alignment reflecting both investor optimism (AI-driven growth) and lingering macro uncertainty.

  • AI investment surge: Corporate capital expenditure in AI has become a key GDP stabilizer, offsetting weaker job growth and moderating downside risks.

  • Balanced growth outlook: Vanguard forecasts modest U.S. growth (≈1.5%) with inflation around 3% and unemployment near 4.7%.
