Earnings are the story: Nancy Tengler | Fox Business Video

Nancy Tengler, CEO of Laffer Tengler Investments, says 2026 stock performance will ultimately hinge on earnings, not macro noise. In a Fox Business interview, she highlighted picks including Walmart, Tesla, and Advanced Micro Devices, arguing they offer a “once-in-a-generation” opportunity. Tengler also pointed to rising interest rates and the U.S. national debt climbing above $40 trillion, noting investors are debating how those pressures could affect market valuations. Heavier debate around compressed market multiples is underway, while she characterized third-quarter earnings growth as relatively robust. Her message: watch results and pay attention to profitability trends.
