The Federal Reserve could move interest rates closer to 6%, said Dan Niles, founder of the Satori Fund. "I think the Fed, quite honestly, is going to get higher to 6% before they stop raising," Niles said on CNBC's "Tech Check." The central bank last hiked interest rates by 25 basis points at its meeting earlier this month. That moved the target rate for interest rates to between 4.5% and 4.75%. Market observers and participants have disagreed on when the Fed will stop raising interest rates.

☆ Hedge fund manager Dan Niles explains why he's so bearish — and when he sees markets falling
▼ + stars: | 2023-02-03 | by ( Ganesh Rao | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

Hedge fund manager Dan Niles said he expects stock markets to fall by the middle of this year as the Federal Reserve opts to keep interest rates higher for longer. Niles, founder and senior portfolio manager of the Satori Fund, told CNBC's "Street Signs Asia" Thursday that there was a "disconnect" between market expectations and the U.S. central bank's messaging. His comments echo Fed Chair Jerome Powell, who said he doesn't expect to cut rates this year after the central bank raised interest rates by 25 basis points Wednesday. However, interest rate swap data shows that a significant proportion of the market expects a cut in the base rate by the middle of this year. However, despite his bearish outlook, the hedge fund manager said there could be several tailwinds in the near term for the U.S., such as the Fed pausing after two more rate hikes, inflation slowing, and China's reopening.

It has short positions in tech stocks with advertising exposure. On the flip side, he warned investors off cloud computing and software stocks with "consumption-based models that will be hurt by tech company layoffs."

Key to its outperformance is the strategy of pairing short positions with long ones, Niles said.

Hedge fund manager Dan Niles said the market is in another bear-market rally and investor sentiment could turn sour again in the new year. Niles believes after the year-end rally, stocks could see more losses as corporate earnings are about to deteriorate. "The problem is you're going to get to the end of this year, and then you're going to have to report numbers and you're going to enter pre-announcement period. "We still believe that after you get sort of this next bear market rally running, it's last gasp, then you go and retest or break to new lows when you get into 2023," Niles said. "Our view is no different that this is just another bear market rally, but trying to take advantage of that things are going pretty well."
