Emerging-market stocks are poised for their strongest earnings growth since the 2002-04 super-cycle, driven by a surge in AI capital expenditure, according to Morgan Stanley analysts. The trend marks a sharp reversal from the past decade, when second-year earnings estimates were typically downgraded, per strategists led by Jonathan Garner.

Analysts highlight Taiwan, South Korea, and India as key beneficiaries, with semiconductor and IT services sectors leading the earnings expansion.
