The world's biggest hedge fund: the 2019th will be hard for the economy

When the founder and head of the world's largest hedge fund, Ray Dalio, speaks, the market is silent and listening. And what Dalio says should bother all market players.
According to the head of Bridgewater Associates, next year will be difficult for stock markets and the economy. He is bearish for almost every asset class, Dalio commented in a recent letter to the clients of the fund he manages.
2019 seems to be a dangerous period for the economy, Dalio says.
Earlier in the month, the hedge fund manager said he was at the forefront of the stock market and this is a problem.
The company, which currently manages assets worth about $150 billion, believes the US bond yield curve should remain flat, in a range where oil reached $62 a barrel and the dollar fell 3.5 percent against the rest of the major currencies.
2019 seems to be a dangerous period for the economy when the financial stimulus is over, and the Fed's interest rate cycle will find its peak, Dalio said in the letter to the hedge fund investors. Given the fact that financial markets are ahead of what is happening in the real economy, the danger to investors is already present.
