Bridgewater Associates founder Ray Dalio has called the stretch between the 2026 midterm elections and the 2028 presidential race 'particularly risky' for the United States, warning that ballooning government debt, fading foreign demand for Treasuries and a volatile political calendar could collide at the worst possible time. Dalio made the remarks on the Prof G Markets podcast on 30 April, in an episode titled 'Ray Dalio: The World Order Has Unravelled. ' Speaking with host Ed Elson, the billionaire investor said the US is 'on the brink of some of these problems' and placed a roughly two-year timeline on when the pressure could peak.
