Strategist: Donald Trump Is A 'Momentum Stock That People Keep On Shorting'

Jason Tennert, chief investment strategist at Strategas Research Partners, was a guest on CNBC's Squawk Box to discuss a potential Donald Trump presidency.

Tennert started off by stating "conventional wisdom" is calling for a Hillary Clinton presidency, but this may not necessarily be the case. He added that Trump is like a "momentum stock that people keep on shorting" and people's opinions towards Trump can change from now until the election, which is six months away.

Tennert added that his investment research firm paid a "very well known political strategist" last year "a lot of money" to analyze the upcoming U.S. election. The political strategist came back and said Trump has a "zero chance" of winning as he doesn't stand a chance of winning over key demographics, including Hispanics and women.

Tennert suggested the key demographic his consultant overlooked was economic-related, including income and employment status. This may explain Trump's rise to popularity as he appears to be the better choice for the economy.

"I think organic growth would probably be better under Donald Trump than it would be under Hillary Clinton," Tennert stated. "Mainly because there will probably be a focus on lower regulations and lower corporate taxes."

However, Tennert did suggest these two factors could also act as an offset to the "nativistic or anti free trade arguments" that Trump has presented.
