Paul Singer Warns Markets Are Too Calm Given Geopolitical Conflicts; Says Investors Should Consider Receiver Options

Paul Singer said market investors are not as worried as they should be about geopolitical conflicts involving Russia, China, and Iran. He said the world is in a perilous place but markets remain relatively calm.

Singer expressed concerns about private credit, saying some money is propping up insolvent companies.

He warned that in a recession or downturn, the Fed would cut rates to 1-3%.

He recommended receiver options, which his firm Elliott Investment Management owns a lot of.

Singer said receiver options are "not cheap, but very likely to work in a stressed market environment."
