On Saturday, “Rich Dad Poor Dad” author Robert Kiyosaki voiced a grim forecast for the stock and bond markets.
In a statement on X, formerly Twitter, Kiyosaki cautioned investors about an imminent market downturn, despite the current upward trends in major indexes.
Despite the recent positive performance of indices like the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the Nasdaq Composite, Kiyosaki remains unconvinced about the underlying strength of the U.S. economy.

Some market observers have expressed skepticism about Kiyosaki’s predictions, noting his history of forecasting market crashes in the past few years that have not materialized.
