  • Robert Kiyosaki Warns Global Stock Market Collapse amid Geopolitical Risks
    April 4, 2026, 9:47 PM EDT. Robert Kiyosaki, author of 'Rich Dad Poor Dad,' warns the global stock market is collapsing due to escalating geopolitical tensions. He highlighted South Korea's KOSPI index, which plunged 12% in a single day-its worst drop ever-triggered by conflict in the Middle East and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial oil shipping route. Major markets worldwide, including Japan's Nikkei and the U.S. Dow Jones, also experienced sharp declines. Kiyosaki criticizes traditional 'paper assets' like stocks and bonds as unreliable during wars, stressing a shift toward 'real assets' unaffected by institutional promises. Meanwhile, Bitcoin showed resilience, rising amid the turmoil, reflecting growing investor interest in alternative assets during market instability.
