The Stockholm Stock Exchange has risen by 20 percent since the turn of the year, yet there is concern about a crash.
The reason is that increased inflation is forecast in the coming time, in both the USA and Sweden.
Doped economies
With rising inflation comes rising commodity prices, which in turn lead to interest rate hikes.
Then there will be anxiety on the stock market - and the risk of a crash increases.
- A slight increase is not a problem, but if inflation sticks out, it can mean big problems, says SVT's financial commentator Kristina Lagerström in Morgonstudion.
That inflation in the world is increasing right now is no wonder.
Several economies have been pumped with extra corona support, which can lead to higher inflation than would otherwise have been the case.
- The aid must be withdrawn at a reasonable pace.
If they do not, inflation will rise and perhaps the stock market will crash.
"Can go to the forest"
If inflation increases at the expected rate, however, the risk of a crash is small, says Kristina Lagerström.
- The increase that is expected is not a problem, but it can go to the forest in any case because there is so much new money in the systems.
Nobody really knows what's going on.
