  • Bank of England Deputy Warns Global Stock Markets Are Overvalued and Likely to Fall
    April 23, 2026, 8:24 PM EDT. The Bank of England's deputy governor, Sarah Breeden, warned that global stock markets are too high and due for a significant correction. She highlighted risks including a potential macroeconomic shock, vulnerabilities in private credit (shadow banking), and inflated valuations driven by AI-fueled investments. Breeden stressed markets show complacency despite these threats. The US stock market recently hit record highs bolstered by AI and tech stocks, but concerns echo the late 1990s dotcom bubble. Breeden declined to specify timing or magnitude but urged preparedness for a possible simultaneous crystallisation of risks impacting financial stability worldwide.
