Charles Schwab director of senior investment strategist Kevin Gordon joins Catalysts to discuss his economic outlook as President-elect Donald Trump prepares to take office.

"There's a pro-growth side of this, there's an anti-growth side of this," Gordon explained. He identified potential pro-growth factors, including deregulation and possible extensions of the TCJA corporate tax cuts. However, he cautioned that proposed tariffs and stricter immigration policies could have anti-growth effects.

"Potentially, they offset each other, but I think that the sequencing is pretty important here," Gordon noted. He explained that while the tax cuts don't expire until 2025, making them a 2026 consideration, immigration and tariffs are likely to be immediate priorities for Trump. "From a market volatility sense, that is probably more of the driver," he adds.
