Doomsday Clock Strikes One Minute To Midnight For Global Stock Market Crash
Stock-Markets / Financial Crash Aug 18, 2015 - 10:43 AM GMTIt is only a matter of time before stock markets collapse under the weight of their lofty expectations and record valuations.
China currency devaluation signals endgame leaving equity markets free to collapse under the weight of impossible expectations.
The Telegraph’s John Ficenec has written an excellent piece warning of a possible market crash in the coming weeks.
He identifies eight key “signs things could get a whole lot worse.”
1 – China slowdown
2 – Commodity collapse
3 – Resource sector credit crisis
4 – Dominoes begin to fall
5 – Credit markets roll over
6 – Interest rate shock
7 – Bull market third longest on record
8 – Overvalued US market
John Ficenec is a market and finance expert and is Editor of the Questor column at Telegraph Media Group working across the Daily and Sunday titles and online. He is a qualified accountant who trained at KPMG before moving into asset management and the private equity industry. He has worked in financial journalism since 2011 and joined the Telegraph in 2013. He won ‘Article of the Year’ in the 2013 CFA Society of UK awards.
As we know, a picture paints a thousand words and the article is replete with a number of excellent charts which should give even the most complacent investor pause for thought.
