Zhitong Finance APP has learned that billionaire investor and founder of Pershing Square Capital Management, Bill Ackman, warned that as highly leveraged trading and speculative activities become increasingly prevalent, the U.S. stock market is experiencing more and more irrational price fluctuations and even risks turning back into a "casino."
