- Robert Kiyosaki has warned of the biggest stock market crash in history.
- The community has countered it by highlighting earlier forecasts that didn’t materialize.
- Robert has said that he is bullish on BTC.
American businessman and Rich Dad Poor Dad author Robert Kiyosaki has forecasted a giant crash in the stock market. However, the community has countered his forecast by citing his earlier statements that turned out to be false. Interestingly, Robert has emphasized on buying bitcoin despite owning some of it already.
Robert Kiyosaki and His Forecast
Robert Kiyosaki has referred to a book titled “Rich Dad’s Prophecy,” published in 2013, to signal a possible giant crash in the days to come. Calling it the biggest stock market crash in history, Robert has said that those who prepared after following his warning could become richer. But others could experience the crash as a worst nightmare.
He has highlighted that he holds real gold, silver, Bitcoin, and Ethereum. Robert has also expressed his bullish sentiments on BTC by saying that he would buy more if the price goes down. One statement that has gained the most attention is his forecast about the stock market crash.
Community Calls Him Out
A strong forecast by Robert Kiyosaki later met with several counterposts from the community.
One of the members, Mark McGrath, pointed out that Robert has been wrong for 14 years. One reference dates back to April 07, 2011, when Robert said that the crash was not over. Another reference dates back to September 01, 2015, wherein Robert had said that the stock market would crash in 2016. Notably, the graph noted an upward trajectory instead.
Another community member, Calculater, sought a response from Grok on the matter. X’s AI generative chatbot underlined that Robert has been wrong at least 6 times after his forecasts didn’t materialize.
All that said, it is important to note that markets are volatile and predictions are not certain outcomes. Thorough research and risk assessment are highly recommended before investments.
Current Situation
The crypto market, in general, has been noticing more or less the same flat trend since the last couple of days. BTC and ETH have high volatility, but their prices seem to be moving in a limited range. Overall, the inflation in the US for January 2026 is reported to have dropped to 2.4% from 2.7% in the previous month.
The unemployment rate has also dropped slightly to 4.3% in the same month from 4.4% in December 2025. The nonfarm payroll has increased by 130k, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. As for the crypto market, JPMorgan has expressed that it’s bullish on crypto for the rest of the year, which is 2026.
