Guru Who Predicted Past Crashes Sees S&P 500 Plunging 63% Soon Due to Bubble Warning Signs
-
John Hussman warns the S&P 500 could plunge 63% due to high valuations and weak market breadth, a combination associated with past crashes.
-
Hussman called the 2000 dot-com crash and 2008 financial crisis. His specialty is identifying bubbles.
-
By some measures like the Shiller PE ratio, equity risk premium, and Buffett indicator, stocks look overvalued.
-
Market breadth metrics show deteriorating internals, with few stocks making new highs.
-
Hussman's past bearish calls have been early but accurate. His fund's recent returns have lagged the S&P 500's gains.
