WHY TODAY'S MARKET FEELS A LITTLE TOO MUCH LIKE 1999

EVERY BUBBLE FLOATS — UNTIL IT DOESN’T

WHAT THESE THREE CHARTS ARE REALLY TELLING YOU Let’s slow this down for a moment. You just looked at three charts:

●​ The Shiller P/E​

●​ The Buffett Indicator​

●​ Margin Debt​

Three different measurements, lenses and ways to look at the market. All saying the same thing. You are standing at record height. These charts don’t predict the day the market crashes. They don’t ring a bell at the top and they don’t give you a calendar invite. What they tell you is how high the market is before gravity takes over and at this level, the fall isn’t normal. It isn’t a dip. It isn’t a buying opportunity. It’s catastrophic to portfolios that are fully exposed and unprepared. That’s not fear. That’s history. Every single time these measures have even come close to where they are now, markets eventually collapse. Every time. Different decade. Different excuses. Same outcome. If that isn't enough, corporate insiders, the people who know more about their companies than anyone, have been dumping their stocks at the fastest pace in a decade. According to Bloomberg, billionaire founders, CEOs, and directors quietly took more than $16 billion off the table in 2025 — with mega-cap tech executives leading the way . In my financial opinion, that’s not confidence, that’s cashing out while the lights are still on. When the people with the best information are selling and everyone else is being told to “stay invested,” it starts to feel less like a market and more like musical chairs — and the insiders already grabbed their seats. We have had over one million layoffs and 717 corporate bankruptcies that occurred in 2025. These are the cracks already forming in our economy.
