Numerous negative factors are putting pressure on the stock markets: high inflation, rising interest rates, economic concerns and geopolitical tensions.

According to a report from “finanzen.net”, the last few months have been characterized by great volatility on the stock markets. The reasons for this are high inflation, rising interest rates, economic concerns and geopolitical tensions. However, despite these uncertainties, there are hopes that the US Federal Reserve can achieve a soft landing. However, the two star investors Bill Gross and Bill Ackman do not share this hope. They expect a recession as early as the fourth quarter.

These recession expectations have an impact on the market. Numerous negative factors such as high inflation, the Fed's restrictive monetary policy and geopolitical tensions are leading to increased volatility on the stock markets and uncertainty among investors.

Yields on long-term U.S. Treasury bonds are also important. These recently reached over 5 percent, their highest level in 16 years. This leads to a decline in bond prices and has the bond market in particular in the focus of market experts.

Bill Gross and Bill Ackman had previously made bets that bond prices would fall, but now expect that yields have peaked and bond prices will rise again. Bill Gross predicts that the gap between short- and long-term bond yields will turn positive by the end of the year. He recommends investing in this curve. He bases this advice on the assumption that the US economy will slide into recession in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Bill Ackman also foresees an economic downturn and has abandoned his bets on falling prices for long-term US bonds. He warns that there is too much risk in the world to continue betting on falling bonds.

Bill Gross and Bill Ackman's recession expectations are impacting the market and could lead to a decline in the stock market and increased volatility. Investors should therefore be careful in their investment decisions and prepare for possible losses.
