You Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet with Daniel Clifton
On episode 267 of The Compound and Friends, Downtown Josh Brown and Michael Batnick are joined by Dan Clifton, Partner and Head of Policy Research at Baird Strategas, to break down the market chaos following the 2026 midterm elections and what the political shakeup means for investors. They discuss the massive selloff in Nvidia and AI stocks, whether the growing backlash against data centers could derail the AI boom, how the election could reshape Big Tech spending, and why history suggests stocks could rally after the midterms. Plus, the outlook for oil prices and the Iran war, what comes next for the Fed and interest rates, the surprising strength in healthcare and biotech stocks, the future of drug pricing, and whether Washington will finally crack down on congressional stock trading and government corruption.
