Staying Nimble in ETFs Amid AI Shifts & Recession Risks

Dan Aronson discusses pockets of opportunity in the market and other early 2026 takeaways. He’s leaning into active ETFs; his firm is building out vehicles within that space. “Leaning into a sector or theme makes sense,” he says, but there are a lot of narratives in the market requiring investors to be nimble. He likes the AI trade but thinks it will transition to end-user companies over the next few years. Dan compares the U.S. to Europe and touches on the possibility of a recession.
