BlackRock CEO Larry Fink Warns Of U.S. Recession, What’s Next For Bitcoin & Crypto Market?

BlackRock CEO Larry Fink has warned of a potential US recession, which he stated might already be happening. If so, this could be bullish for the crypto market, as the US Federal Reserve moves to inject more liquidity to stimulate the economy.

BlackRock CEO Larry Fink Warns Of A US Recession

In a CNBC interview, BlackRock CEO Larry Fink stated that he believes a US recession is already starting or that the economy might already be in one. This is the second time the BlackRock CEO has sounded this warning this week.

Fink suggested that factors such as Donald Trump’s tariffs could lead to this recession and a period of slow economic growth for the US. If so, this development could be a positive for the Bitcoin price and the broader crypto market, as the US Federal Reserve will have to step in.

As CoinGape reported, other experts such as JPMorgan, Deutsche Bank, and Goldman Sachs have echoed Larry Fink’s sentiment, predicting that a US recession will happen this year. Meanwhile, traders on prediction platforms PolyMarket and Kalshi are also betting heavily on this happening.

Dom Kwok, an expert and co-founder of EasyA, affirmed that recessions are bullish for crypto prices. He explained that the US Federal Reserve lowers interest rates during recessions to spur the economy.

Slowing Inflation & Weak Dollar Could Also Spark Market Surge

The crypto market could witness a massive price surge from its current levels based on the recent inflation data and weak dollar, amid Larry Fink’s warning of a recession.

US Bureau of Labor data shows that the March PPI inflation data fell by 0.4% month over month, against the expected rise of 0.2%. Meanwhile, year over year, it rose by 2.7%, against the expected 3.3%.

This is bullish for the market as it shows that US inflation is slowing, which could motivate the Federal Reserve to cut rates. The Fed easing its monetary policies would inject more liquidity into the market.

As CoinGap reported, the US CPI inflation data also came in cooler than Wall Street’s expectations, sparking hopes of a crypto market rally. CPI surged by 2.4% in March, year over year, lower than the market’s expectation of 2.6%.
