Rogers pointed to the staggering accumulation of debt within the global financial system as the primary catalyst for the impending bear market and suggested that the debt levels have risen so dramatically since 2008 that the next bear market will be the most severe in his lifetime:

“I know we’re going to have the largest bear market, the biggest bear market in my lifetime. In 2008 we had a big bear market because of too much debt…look out the window … since 2008 the debt everywhere has skyrocketed. Gigantic increases in debt … So, I think it’s a simple statement that the next bear market will be the worst in my lifetime. Because the debt has gone up by such staggering amounts in the past 14 years.“

Drawing parallels with the inflationary crisis 1980, Rogers warned of a similar scenario in today’s financial markets. He recalls the astronomical interest rates and treasury yields required to curb inflation during that period and suggests that a comparable situation is on the horizon.

Rogers’ warning comes as the Federal Reserve Open Market Committee (FOMC) has decided to halt interest rate hikes for now, although it anticipates two more increases by the end of this year. This decision could have significant implications for property, stock, bond, and currency markets.
