Most Dangerous Stock Market in History – Michael Pento with Greg Hunter

Money manager and financial expert Michael Pento says every corner of the globe is in economic trouble. Pento contends, “I think we are going to have a global synchronized collapse amongst the developed world economies: Europe, Japan, the United States and China, and you should be hedging against this market. Don’t forget, we have the most overvalued, most dangerous stock market in the history of the world. . . . Record valuations sit on top of an unprecedented earnings and revenue recession. The only thing we have left is the promise of ZIRP, QE and negative interest rates that don’t work. All they do is inflate asset prices. You should be short the market, and you should be long precious metals.”

Pento, who wrote a book titled “The Coming Bond Market Collapse,” says the global bond market is also in trouble, and recently defaulted Puerto Rican bonds is just the beginning of trouble. Pento explains, “This is a great fact, and you are only going to get this on USAWatchdog.com. We (U.S.) have a debt to GDP ratio that is well over 100%. The total debt of the world is 230% debt to GDP. Global debt is up $60 trillion since 2007, but here’s the data point you are only going to get here. Did you know our debt (U.S.) is growing at 3.44 times GDP? That has never happened before. Go to the . . . Federal Reserve and look it up for yourself. Our debt in the United States is rising at 3.44 times GDP. That is astronomical. That is added to the $19.3 trillion we already have. We are Puerto Rico. We are Japan. All we have is a central bank. If the Fed ever started to raise interest rates, our debt would become unserviceable. Interest rates would go back to double digits very quickly, and the economy would implode. That’s why you are probably not going to get any more interest rate increases in 2016, maybe one at the most, and that’s why the dollar is going lower.”
