Leon Cooperman, the billionaire founder of hedge fund Omega Advisors, says a market correction could start “very soon.”

Cooperman, who’s known for his bullish stock picks, said any number of events could prompt markets to fall. “North Korea, a disappointing earnings report, anything,” he said Tuesday at the CNBC Institutional Investor Delivering Alpha Conference in New York. “We can have a 5 to 8 percent correction anytime.”
