For each of the ten market tops over the last 40 years, one will find a caldera of lava underneath the placid S. Park-like valley floor. Akin to Super Volcano Caldera under Yellowstone Park in real life. The lava, actually magma, has settled into levels... https://t.co/UUbQqlNDwo

Bloomberg: Bloomberg Opinion) -- Skeptics of the artificial investment boom are doubling down. Billionaire Ray Dalio warned last week that the bubble was near its bursting point, while Michael Burry of the Big Shortfame brought forward the timeline for his bearish thesis. SoftBank Group Corp. founder Masayoshi Son’s attempt to set up another $100 billion AI-focused venture capital fund will only give the doubters more ammunition.

Developments with Fannie & Freddie , Hong Kong Value Stocks, Dealing with value stocks late in a bull market, consolidating a big short. This is how the sausage is made. More data, more information.

Well well well. Well. Bloomberg: Broadcom CEO Likens Many AI Investors to Casino Gamblers and more... Broadcom’s Tan said AI model developers need to find customers that can generate returns from deploying the technology, rather than relying on users who are now “wasting money” on tokens as they experiment with AI. “When you are a kid you go to a video arcade, you play. Your parents give you $10 of tokens, you finish it in 10 minutes and you haven’t learned anything,” he said. “That’s what happening in enterprises today.”

Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac need Thor's Hammer to unleash the value. Or so it seems. Thor's looking too fat and lazy to wield it. What next?

Salad days for home builders won’t last. Not a fan of home builder stocks. Building is a commodity business. Land appreciation/development is most of the ROIC. Housing shortage is mostly because people are failing to pair up. Square feet of housing per capita are at all-time high. https://t.co/PLhKfnQfNU Demand has nosedived since mortgage rates rose above 7%. Sales of new homes per community in September normally slow by 4% on average compared with August as the buying season winds down. They are down 18%. https://t.co/TYifaDf7u1

By early 2000, 70-80% of stocks were in bear markets, and the indices continued to move higher. I have a word for that. Denial.

In this article I greatly expand on this tweet. The market's grieving process has been interrupted the last couple decades by heavy doses of monetary and fiscal cocaine. So much so that it is now hard to tell if grief can ever find its position again. Denial is perhaps most easily found in market breadth indicators, and I follow one in particular that seems to give a very strong signal every few decades. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">The stock market is quite obviously in its first stage of grief, denial.

A fun game in times like these is to go to the S&P 500 Index and see how many profitable companies one can buy with the bubble private company valuation. The number that Anthropic’s valuation buys is 78, including Domino’s, Clorox, Smucker, Stanley Black & Decker, Deckers, lululemon, McCormick, Tractor Supply, NVR, Albemarle, FedEx Freight, News Corp, Alllian Energy, Kimco Realty, Hormel Foods, Clorox, Weyerhauser, DaVita, Zimmer Biomet, Lennox, Masco, A.O. Smith, MGM, Wynn, Brown-Forman, Norwegian Cruise Lines, Hungtington Ingalls, and many more. The largest inflation adjusted valuation at pre-IPO of 1990-2000 was UPS at $119 billion, 92 y…

The only reason the CEOs of these tech monopolies are spending wildly on data centers like they are is because they assume they will be granted an oligopoly that is too big too fail.

The stock market is quite obviously in its first stage of grief, denial. Per 2000 and 2008, this stage lasts 6-9 months. I posted an X article expanding on the tweet. https://t.co/lk7svD7jpw The market breadth indicator I follow gives a strong signal every few decades, and where we stand today: https://t.co/a7wde5qu9n https://t.co/cK3BtITyiF

One more time for our September 2026 Charity of the Month

Short selling is perniciously perilous. Market timing is garishly garrulous. Ignorance is bliss. Still, one can learn something new every day. This is new.
