UBS: Stablecoin market cap set to reach $1.2 trillion by 2031, digital assets heading mainstream
According to Chaoxiang research, UBS’s September 28, 2026 report indicates the initiation of coverage on digital asset strategies, projecting the stablecoin market capitalization to reach approximately $1.2 trillion by 2031, alongside real-world payment volumes of roughly $3 trillion. Stablecoin issuers hold approximately $175 billion in short-term US Treasury-related exposures. The Bank for International Settlements estimates that a $3.5 billion inflow into stablecoins reduces the yield on 3-month US Treasuries by approximately 0.7 basis points, decreasing it by about 4 basis points over a 10-day period. Tokenization can unlock approximately $2.46 trillion in annualized repo trading volume. By 2030, AI agents may facilitate approximately $2 trillion in global C2B e-commerce, with stablecoins accounting for about $56 billion of that volume. UBS believes that as digital assets achieve mainstream adoption, their overall impact on the financial sector will range from neutral to mildly positive. Sectors such as payments and fintech, exchanges, and asset management are assessed as mildly positive, while banking remains neutral. Allocation strategies center on three core themes: stablecoins, tokenization, and agent commerce. Increasing compliance costs particularly favor large-scale operators.

UBS: Cybersecurity valuation exceeds pandemic peak, Q3 earnings must beat expectations
According to Chaoxiang Research, UBS's September 28, 2026 research report indicates that the cybersecurity sector's current market-cap-weighted enterprise value to next 12-month free cash flow stands at 62x, while enterprise value to next 12-month revenue is at 15x, both exceeding levels seen during the COVID era.

Chainlink Launches Connectivity Framework, 17 Banks Prepare for SWIFT Ledger Pilot
Odaily News: Chainlink announced on September 28 the launch of a connectivity framework that allows banks to connect to the SWIFT blockchain ledger through the Chainlink platform while retaining transaction signing keys. The framework coordinates institutional systems' interactions with the ledger via the Chainlink runtime environment, and banks adopting the self-signing model do not need to hand over authorization keys to Chainlink.The SWIFT ledger supports 24/7 tokenized deposit payments, with final settlement still completed through existing mechanisms such as real-time gross settlement. Seventeen banks from six continents, including ANZ, HSBC, Citi, Standard Chartered, and UBS, are preparing to conduct tokenized deposit pilots on the SWIFT ledger.

UBS: S&P 500 P/E Ratio Down 17%, Fed's Path Determines Future Market Outlook
According to Chaoxiang Research, in a research report dated September 28, 2026, UBS noted that the S&P 500's forward P/E ratio has declined 17% from its November high last year, while the 10-year US Treasury yield has increased by approximately 100 basis points year-to-date to 5.2%, placing it roughly 80 basis points above its one-year moving average. Over the past four decades, the 10-year US Treasury yield has exceeded 1.5 standard deviations only seven times. Current market pricing implies that the Federal Reserve will implement rate hikes totaling approximately 88 basis points over the next year, falling just short of the 100-basis-point threshold. UBS maintains that the Fed's path of rate hikes will determine the direction of equity markets. Historical precedent indicates that when rate hikes surpass 100 basis points within a year, the S&P 500 yields negative returns after twelve months; conversely, following moderate rate hikes, the index averages a 17.7% gain over the same period. Current pricing more closely mirrors a moderate tightening scenario. The valuation model suggests an implied upside potential of roughly 21% for the S&P 500. In terms of asset allocation, investors are advised to focus on high-growth, low-valuation sectors, including semiconductors, pharmaceuticals, refining, and diversified banks.

UBS: The pace of Fed rate hikes may be lower than market expectations, and it expects to maintain interest rates unchanged following a December hike.
UBS stated that despite recent strong US economic data and rising inflation pressures, which have heightened market expectations for further Federal Reserve policy tightening, the bank believes the actual extent of rate hikes may be lower than current market pricing. UBS expects the Federal Reserve to implement one rate hike in December this year before holding steady thereafter, and anticipates inflation to steadily decline over the next six months. Meanwhile, higher bond yields are generating new fixed-income investment opportunities. UBS maintains its bullish outlook on fixed-income assets, believing that US economic resilience and AI investment will continue to support corporate earnings.

UBS: Broadcom tweaks AI guidance, NVIDIA extends to infrastructure, Terafab starts construction
According to Chaoxiang Research, on August 24, UBS released a SemiBytes Industry Flash Review, highlighting three synchronized key tracks: Broadcom, NVIDIA, and Terafab under SpaceX. Broadcom is set to release its Q2 earnings report on September 2. UBS forecasts third-quarter AI revenue of approximately $16 billion, rising to $21–22 billion in the fourth quarter. The firm has lowered its 2027 AI revenue projection from roughly $135 billion to $130 billion, slightly adjusted its target price from $485 to $470, and maintained a Buy rating. Anthropic contributed approximately $2.5 billion in Q3, while Google Cloud AI revenue saw a quarter-over-quarter increase of around $2 billion. NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang disclosed that the company's business model is expanding into compute infrastructure, with a $1.5 billion investment in SB Energy via the PORTS-Pike project and up to $105 billion in credit support to assist OpenAI in securing 4.25 GW of land and power facilities. UBS believes land, power, and fabs are emerging as strategic inputs for the AI supply chain. On the Terafab front, Tesla's recruiting portal listed 44 relevant positions in July spanning all major semiconductor manufacturing processes. The appearance of memory design and integration engineering roles confirms internal memory fabrication intentions. Satellite imagery of the Grimes County, Texas campus shows the project is still in its early stages, with only site-clearing operations visible.
