# Wall Street's pessimistic outlook with fifth most bearish sentiment in 25 years: Recession odds high, US equity allocations down. Global fund managers foresee weakening global economy. Cash piles grow as investor confidence collapses.

> Investor confidence is declining, with recession odds rising. The Global Fund Manager Survey by Bank of America shows the fifth most bearish sentiment in 25 years, with 82% expecting global economic weakening in the next year. Predictions of a global recession have surged to 42%, up from 19% in March, and a 49% chance of a "hard landing." This shift is evident in falling U.S. equity allocations and increasing cash reserves, reflecting a highly bearish market outlook.

Investor confidence is rapidly declining, with recession odds on the rise. The Global Fund Manager Survey by Bank of America revealed the fifth most bearish sentiment in 25 years, with 82% of respondents expecting global economic weakening in the next 12 months. In March, only 44% had a negative growth outlook. The survey, gathering responses from global fund managers overseeing trillions in assets, indicates a surge in recession fears, with 42% predicting a global recession (up from 19% in March) and a 49% probability of a "hard landing." This shift from optimism to caution is reflected in collapsing U.S. equity allocations and swelling cash piles, indicative of a highly bearish market outlook.
