The Swamp Always Wins

from Tea and Crumpets Hosted by Will Brown & Adam Eagleston, CFA

In this episode, we have a no-holds-barred conversation featuring Kalee Kreider, a seasoned political strategist and expert in climate policy. Together, we dig into the uncomfortable truths about markets, politics, and the economic pressures facing everyday Americans. From election forecasts and the appeal of government gridlock to the harsh realities of student debt, the conversation is unscripted, unfiltered, and unexpectedly funny. We explore why investors often prefer a slow-moving Congress, how middle-income families are still reeling from financial burdens nobody talks about, and why economic narratives need more honesty and a lot less spin. What You'll Learn: Why political gridlock can actually calm the markets The ongoing impact of student debt on families earning six figures What's really driving midterm election outcomes—and what to expect next How public perception influences both policy and portfolio performance Why clarity in communication is just as valuable as a solid balance sheet Learn more about Formidable Asset Management, Will Brown, and Adam Eagleston by visiting www.formidableam.com.
