The S&P 500 closed around 7,084 on April 21, 2026, after hitting fresh record highs near 7,147 last week amid a strong start to Q1 earnings season and rebound from March lows. Wall Street's year-end targets cluster around 7,500—implying 6% upside per trader consensus from Goldman Sachs (7,600), JPMorgan (7,200), and UBS (7,700)—supported by projected earnings per share growth to $309 amid steady GDP expansion and unemployment near 4%. However, persistent inflation pressures from March CPI's 1.1% monthly rise and Middle East tensions temper optimism. Key catalysts include the April 28-29 FOMC meeting, ongoing corporate earnings, and upcoming jobs data, with markets pricing balanced growth against policy uncertainty.
