Foreign media reported that "bond king" Gross posted on social platform X, stating that the current rise in gold seems to be overstretched, and indicated that gold has become a momentum or meme asset, suggesting that if one wishes to hold it, they should wait a bit.

He also anticipated that the "cockroaches" of U.S. regional banks may continue to affect stocks and bonds, but expected that the yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury bond would significantly exceed last week's closing of 4.01%, stating that a rise to 4.5% is more reasonable, based on the federal government needing to issue a large amount of new debt to cover the deficit, while economic growth is expected to plummet from the current estimate of over 3% to 1%.

Several banks had previously disclosed issues with suspicious borrowers, and JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon referred to the collapse of the auto loan company Tricolor as a "cockroach," suggesting that this phenomenon may indicate that more problems are hidden elsewhere
