A growing number of economists estimate an economic recession in the U.S by the end of this year or in 2020.
Some economists are even concerned about a downturn.
In a survey conducted last year by Boston Consultancy Group including 260 professional money managers and analysts, one-third of the participants (73%) said they are expecting an economic recession within the 2-year period.
Just more than half of the investors (53%) were expecting a recession in 2017.
They are mostly concerned about market valuations and policies of the central bank.
Two thirds (64%) of bearish investors told that they are worried about current stock prices and 48% said they have concerns regarding the interest rate levels.
