All that happened last week pulled forward recession risk,\" she told MarketWatch.As far back as November 2022, she's been saying that she sees \"unattractive risk-reward for either stocks or bonds.\"Opimas' Marenzi said the threat to Wall Street from Credit Suisse was simple:\"You mean what do American investors who do not own any non-American stocks and do not own a passport and could not find Switzerland on a map and who think that anyone who speaks any language other than English is a bit weird  have to worry about? Not a lot, other than the contagion spreading back into the US banking system and causing a meltdown,\" he told MarketWatch.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":164,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"defaultTab":"posts","isTTM":true}
