U.S. President Donald Trump said on Tuesday the U.S. stock market will crash if he loses the election this year.
S&P 500 Futures look ready to define their immediate reactionary move; perhaps they may try to overlook supply chain disruptions which may continue to impact global growth even for a longer duration.
I find that the next crash in global equity markets will be a sudden and silent phenomenon. There is no doubt that the next equity market crash will be global in nature, as most of the central banks from ECB to China, have only swollen the equity indices by providing stimulus amid growing fear of global economic slowdown. But, in order to stimulate the economies of their countries, perhaps they have pushed the global equity indices to peak levels without strong economic fundamentals.
On the other hand, steady Gold Futures continue to achieve new heights, while the global equity markets have started to show clear signs of exhaustion. A market crash may appear much sooner than one can expect. It may be sudden and quite, any time in May to July, 2020.
