More on the Bridgewater forecast for 'near-recession-level growth' in the US in 2019

Earlier today we got the 2019 outlook from Greg Jensen, co-chief investment officer of Bridgewater Associates.

A not very encouraging one:

• Bridgewater (world's largest hedge fund): US 2019 growth to be near recession level

While most of the details are in that post, Reuters have a recap/more posted from their telephone interview on Thursday

• the big story going forward, weaker growth and central banks struggling to move from their current tightening stance to easing and finding it difficult to ease because they have very little ammunition to ease."

'Why are you smiling?'
