Bill Gross on interest rates
From Legendary investor Bill Gross on why investors need to exercise caution · · Fox Business
“I think tomorrow 25 basis points, but I would wonder after that, that means the balance of 2017 perhaps not and maybe 25 basis points in 2018. That's what the market expects. They basically expect not only the US Fed but other central banks to just raise interest rates by very small increments. And so yes, that keeps a lid basically on volatility, that facilitates stock prices, but back to my original theme, I think we simply plateaued and we move up gradually as opposed to move up significantly.”

About Bill Gross
Bill Gross, cofounder of Pimco, appeared at the third annual Bill Gross Business Plan Competition at Caltech on April 16, 2026. The competition, hosted by Caltech’s chief innovation officer Fred Farina, featured ten finalist teams selected from over 70 applications. Gross spoke about his own experience as a Caltech student, describing a presentation he gave in a class called E10 as one of the most valuable things he learned at the school. He said that "the ability to take your idea, crystallize it into a story and tell it to the world is really, really powerful." During the event, Gross also discussed his views on entrepreneurship, stating that it "unlocks human potential" and that forming a company with shared equity enables people to "feel like owners" and accomplish things "like never ever before." He added that the tools available to entrepreneurs today, including AI and other technologies, are "better than ever before." The competition also included a trailer for a new podcast, "Einstein Suite," which Gross co-hosts with Fred Farina, described as a series of conversations at the intersection of science, art, and culture filmed in the room where Albert Einstein stayed while at Caltech.
