The Market Didn’t Crash, Humanity Didn’t Die — But Crypto Just Broke Out — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00Um,
- 0:02humanity is still here. So,
- 0:06most weeks when I do this, uh, there's
- 0:10actually a lot to talk about in the
- 0:12market. Uh, when when you get a week
- 0:14like this where
- 0:16you get all the bare porn out on Sunday,
- 0:20I get contacted by more hedge fund
- 0:23people in a weekend in a long time to
- 0:25see how the AI trade is going to play.
- 0:28Uh, and pretty much everyone who reached
- 0:30out where I said this is just another
- 0:32one of these knee-jerk one day and then
- 0:34by the time we get a week to 10 days
- 0:36later, nobody will remember it. I think
- 0:40everyone keeps learning their lessons on
- 0:42this. Uh, but overall it was a very
- 0:44quiet week for stocks. It was a very
- 0:46quiet week for uh AI trades. It was just
- 0:50overall a very quiet week despite the
- 0:52fact that we had
- 0:55AI pause, 10% chance humanity dies, oil
- 0:59soaring higher on Monday, 10 year rates
- 1:01get to 2007
- 1:04levels for the first time. Fed raises in
- 1:08a hawkish hike and if you sold the
- 1:11market on Monday morning when it opened,
- 1:13you lost. if you sold it uh at the close
- 1:15on Wednesday, which a lot of people uh
- 1:18that I follow said this was the time to
- 1:20be out of equities and everything else
- 1:22and yet somehow another we made we were
- 1:24able to rally. The story of the week and
- 1:26the story for the month is crypto. I
- 1:29have talked endlessly about this and we
- 1:31are finally at the point. So last May to
- 1:34June I said that by the time we get to
- 1:36se September October we will be at the
- 1:39most important inflection point for
- 1:41crypto and the reason would be because
- 1:44of the merging of AI agents. AI and
- 1:46crypto are together. Crypto does not
- 1:48exist without AI. It was built for AI
- 1:50and most people don't recognize that. So
- 1:54before I start this I want to make sure
- 1:55there's a lot of things I'm going to go
- 1:56through here. This week I will be
- 1:58sending out my first video on uh on
- 2:02crypto for subscribers. So for those of
- 2:04you who watch this every week that have
- 2:06been waiting for it, this will be
- 2:09basically a very extended version on why
- 2:12now. Uh I'm not going to go through all
- 2:14of that today. I'm not going to take you
- 2:15through the details. Um but as I've
- 2:18said, I've created an index. It made new
- 2:20highs for the year today. I posted that
- 2:22in X for macro people. This is the most
- 2:26important macro trade of everyone's
- 2:29existence. This is the beginning of
- 2:31something that is very very similar to
- 2:33the times that I traveled to China. For
- 2:35any of you that I traveled to China with
- 2:37who I've not spoken with, those times
- 2:39that we went to China from 2003
- 2:42to 2013 when they were building roads
- 2:45bigger than what they needed and they
- 2:46had ghost cities and all of this stuff,
- 2:49the.com bubble where we were building
- 2:51the infrastructure necessary, but we
- 2:53didn't actually get
- 2:56the iPhone until 2007. So all these
- 2:58stories that you're hearing about debt,
- 3:00about crashes, about that, it's all BS.
- 3:03It's all meant to scare you. Everything
- 3:05I read on AI is just a complete
- 3:07gobbledegoop of garbage. Uh it's just
- 3:10people literally writing things that
- 3:12have nothing to do with facts. They
- 3:14might be right down the road, but you
- 3:16can't argue with it if you don't use it.
- 3:19And so everyone that's taking some kind
- 3:20of history and pasting it over. What I
- 3:22am going to do today for a bit of this
- 3:25is paste over where we are in crypto,
- 3:27why it was built, why we've gone through
- 3:30this long period of 16 years, which is
- 3:33very similar from the internet to when
- 3:35the iPhone came out. It's almost the
- 3:36exact amount of time and why the iPhone
- 3:38and the app store was why this works
- 3:41because there is no Uber, there is no
- 3:42Airbnb, there is no almost everything
- 3:44you do in your life without the
- 3:46smartphone and without the app store.
- 3:49And for crypto, I will tell you guys,
- 3:52your entire world is changing. There has
- 3:54not been a macro change like this in the
- 3:56history of mankind. We are going to a
- 3:59digital transaction with digital agents,
- 4:02digital employees, everything is going
- 4:04digital. And so if you want to
- 4:06understand what tokenization is, if you
- 4:07want to understand the names that are in
- 4:09there, what Zcash is, what Bit Tenzor
- 4:12is, what a go up and down the line, all
- 4:14of these things are going to be a part
- 4:16of your life whether you like it or not.
- 4:18So you either learn or you don't. And at
- 4:20least with me, you're getting someone
- 4:22who's doing it from a systems thinking
- 4:24perspective, who's a macro person for
- 4:26those who know me and they like what I
- 4:27do on the AI side. They like the way I
- 4:29talk about macro. I'm been spending my
- 4:31time to make sure that I can give you
- 4:33the same thing in crypto in that way.
- 4:36All right, you guys can read this on
- 4:37your own. Do not take anything I say as
- 4:41being certain. I'm wrong all the time.
- 4:44The key is maximize upside, minimize
- 4:48downside.
- 4:49I'm going to show this again because
- 4:50after today, quarter to date,
- 4:54here are the stocks. So, I'm going to
- 4:56say this right now.
- 4:58I don't think we will ever have another
- 5:01big bull market in stocks like the one
- 5:04we saw in the first quarter of this
- 5:06year, the first two quarters of this
- 5:08year for AI. I believe the multiple
- 5:10compression is the old system basically
- 5:13going through something there. So the
- 5:16Fed's going to have they've chosen to
- 5:18raise rates. The only way I thought we'd
- 5:19get a surge in stocks would be if they
- 5:22cut rates. The fact that they raised
- 5:24rates and stocks are just sitting here
- 5:27while earnings continue to grow. You'll
- 5:29still get returns in stocks, but
- 5:30remember bonds are basically unchanged
- 5:32for how long now? I mean, I'm sure we'll
- 5:35be here in two years and we'll say it'll
- 5:36be a decade, but regardless, stocks so
- 5:40far this quarter, S&P up 2%. NASDAQ down
- 5:45three,
- 5:46semis down 14,
- 5:49Ethereum up 66%, Bitcoin up 53%.
- 5:54Salana up 38. Those are the three main
- 5:57ones. Those are the layer ones that I
- 5:59want you to focus on. But underneath the
- 6:01hood for crypto to get a quick thing out
- 6:04while you're sitting there spinning your
- 6:05wheels for not not just this month, for
- 6:09the entire quarter trying to chase
- 6:12stocks up and down, responding to oil,
- 6:15responding to rates, and watching this
- 6:16whole thing and just getting gutted.
- 6:19Everyone made their money in the first
- 6:21two quarters of the year when we got the
- 6:23rally in AI. I'm not sure going forward
- 6:26that we're going to have the kinds of
- 6:29rally that are necessary for people to
- 6:31go because I do think the market will go
- 6:32higher. If you're running long short, I
- 6:35would guess between now and the end of
- 6:36the first quarter, we're going to see a
- 6:38good rally in stocks. But I wouldn't bet
- 6:40heavy on it because I don't think you're
- 6:42going to get much return. But in crypto,
- 6:44here's what you're getting on Friday.
- 6:47I'm not showing you the names. These are
- 6:49the names in my 46 name portfolio. Some
- 6:51of these are public stocks. This is the
- 6:54vertical they represent.
- 6:5621% in a day, almost a hundred for the
- 7:00month. Look at these numbers. Is it
- 7:01above the 50-day? Yes. Yes. Yes. We're
- 7:04at a different point now. Here's what
- 7:06the chart looks like. I said my 46 name
- 7:09index broke to new highs for the year.
- 7:12That puts Bitcoin up significantly from
- 7:15here. Another 15% from here. Uh and this
- 7:19is Bitcoin overlaid with it. The
- 7:20correlation remains basically one for
- 7:23one. The difference is the ecosystem is
- 7:26doing better. Bitcoin, remember, is part
- 7:28of the ecosystem. So, I posted this in
- 7:30X. 10% chance AI kills humanity. 100%
- 7:33chance crypto was built for AI. So, for
- 7:36all you guys who've made money on AI
- 7:38this year, all the macro teams that have
- 7:40jumped into AI, all the pod teams,
- 7:43crypto is now where you want to have
- 7:45your focus. Why now? I'm not going to
- 7:47spend time on today, but for those I did
- 7:49travel to China. China built ghost
- 7:52cities. Ghost cities, there's no
- 7:54economic activity, but there's a bunch
- 7:56of infrastructure. That's where crypto
- 7:58is. The problem is crypto was never
- 8:01meant for human beings. Even though the
- 8:03crypto gang thought it was, it was never
- 8:07going to get the wealthiest people that
- 8:09own the $900 trillion, the banks, the
- 8:11institutions to actually start using it.
- 8:14What is going to use it? what cares
- 8:16about it
- 8:18are AI agents and they're already
- 8:20starting to and so this is the reason
- 8:22why I have waited and I've been patient
- 8:24and this is why why now is about the
- 8:27perfect convergence liquidity plus AI
- 8:30plus the blockchain everything that
- 8:32you've learned about macroeconomics in
- 8:34terms of well the liqu and and in crypto
- 8:36I hear this from both sides the
- 8:37liquidity cycle we're doing M2 does not
- 8:40matter anymore M2 relative to what's
- 8:44happening with tokenization relative to
- 8:46what's going to happen with the velocity
- 8:48of money. We are going to see an
- 8:50explosion in the velocity as everything
- 8:53moves on chain gradually by time because
- 8:56it will be cheaper to deal on uh on
- 8:58chain. Will people be slow to move? Of
- 9:02course, that's what they did with Uber.
- 9:03We all know parents and grandparents
- 9:04that either never used Uber or they
- 9:06barely moved over. But in a world where
- 9:08every penny matters, where time matters,
- 9:11you're going to use the agents and
- 9:14they're here and they're getting valued
- 9:15high. This is private companies, too.
- 9:17So, I'm going to take you through that
- 9:19as we go on. The reason now is because
- 9:21we couldn't have crypto benefit until we
- 9:23reached the automated AI researcher.
- 9:27This is hedge fund manager Leopold Ashen
- 9:29Brener from his situational awareness
- 9:33paper, the 165page paper he wrote in
- 9:362024.
- 9:38When we hit this point, we get an
- 9:39explosion in all of these things,
- 9:42including GDP, military edge, robots,
- 9:44science and technology, cognitive labor.
- 9:46I'll go through this.
- 9:48This is where we are. Okay, we're at
- 9:51that inflection point, which is why
- 9:52crypto matters. And this is the last
- 9:54thing I'm going to do on crypto before I
- 9:55go through the week that was I want you
- 9:58to understand in someone who has spent
- 10:00now the better part of five years mainly
- 10:04situated on Bitcoin but then spreading
- 10:05out into the ecosystem in particular
- 10:07over the course of the last two
- 10:10thinking that you understand crypto or
- 10:12that you don't need to know it is the
- 10:14same thing for me as trying to say to
- 10:16people if you know baseball you don't
- 10:19know cricket. And I'm bringing this up
- 10:22because the the complexity of learning a
- 10:25completely new language. Why
- 10:27tokenization matters, why stable coins
- 10:29matter, what is Ethereum, what is
- 10:31Salana, what is Bitcoin, what is Zcash,
- 10:34why how do they all fit into the
- 10:36equation. It takes a lot of time. And so
- 10:39for the people making decisions at the
- 10:42highest level of a hedge fund, it's very
- 10:45very hard to pick this up. And so what I
- 10:47will be spending my time doing for the
- 10:49next two months for sure as I go through
- 10:52why now then I will start going through
- 10:54each of the 10 verticals probably two or
- 10:56three a week to take you through the
- 10:58names to give you an understanding of
- 10:59what's going on. That is what will be on
- 11:02the subscriber website for hedge funds.
- 11:04If you don't pay for the subscriber
- 11:06website or mutual funds or whatever
- 11:08you're going to need to this stuff is
- 11:10going behind the payw wall. This is the
- 11:12stuff that I will be talking about. This
- 11:13is what I do presentations on right now
- 11:16for financial advisors and RAAS. If
- 11:18you're worried that you are going to
- 11:19fall behind with your clients, the same
- 11:21way with AI, this is far more important
- 11:23than AI because it's very easy for
- 11:25someone to understand what Micron does.
- 11:27They just have to go read. But to
- 11:28understand what Zcash is and what near
- 11:32is and I can go on and on. It's going to
- 11:34take a lot more learning and your
- 11:36viewpoint of it is that it's a scam. So
- 11:39the week that was I did my thing on
- 11:41Friday last week Daario came out and
- 11:43said we have to slow down. That got
- 11:45everyone freaked out. So Monday we get
- 11:46in here. You get cyber gapping up which
- 11:49moves the software sector up. You get
- 11:52semi semiconductors down. So what you
- 11:54end up with is a 10% the biggest
- 11:57outperformance of software verse semis.
- 11:59I'm sure it hurt a lot of people.
- 12:02Anthropic researcher believes more than
- 12:0410% chance AI could kill all humans.
- 12:06Incredibly stupid. Um, and no reason for
- 12:09you guys to to think about it, warn if
- 12:12if that's what's going to happen. It's
- 12:13not something you can go defend against.
- 12:15Um, and it's very hard to come up with
- 12:16how you kill all of humanity. So, we can
- 12:18kill people and I'm sure we will. Um,
- 12:20Anthropic Co warns AI agents swarms
- 12:23could seize the internet within a year.
- 12:25This is a story now going around more
- 12:27and more. Again, I 100% believe that
- 12:31this is possible, especially as you read
- 12:33the hugging face thing. 100%. I
- 12:35subscribe to the fact that will there be
- 12:38an issue? Yes. And will humans be
- 12:41scared? Yes. Just like they've been with
- 12:43every new technology, bar none. This is
- 12:45not the first time we've worried about
- 12:47humanity. Could AI really wipe out
- 12:49humanity? It's a global thing. So, let's
- 12:51go through the bearish forecast that we
- 12:53get constantly and the reality. So, the
- 12:55reason I said the BS and the bear porn
- 12:58and whatever you're reading, whether
- 13:00it's Michael Bur, Jim Chenos, whether
- 13:02it's the stuff in X that comes out all
- 13:04the time, GPU prices are going to fall.
- 13:06I get stuff every single week, guys. I
- 13:09had a CPA send me something this week to
- 13:11try and prove to me that here's just the
- 13:14fact it may happen. We may get to a
- 13:16point where the frontier model companies
- 13:18are selling their incredibly important
- 13:22brains to nobody. the open source are
- 13:24not as good. None of that stuff is the
- 13:26same as what they're doing. Who's
- 13:28solving the math prizes? It's anthropic
- 13:30and open AI. Now, again, this may change
- 13:33over time, but they have a huge
- 13:35advantage, and it's very clear at this
- 13:37point that they've hit some kind of
- 13:38recursive self-improvement by the fact
- 13:40that we're getting models out quicker
- 13:42and quicker, and now they've reached a
- 13:43point where they're scared because
- 13:44they're ahead of the safety side. So, if
- 13:46you read through all of these things
- 13:48that have been out there and then you
- 13:49read at the facts, we need things to
- 13:52change. So, if you're listening to
- 13:53people and getting worried, it's costing
- 13:55you money. Now, right now, the market's
- 13:57not moving, but as we get through
- 13:58earnings and we have the next wave of
- 14:00this, at some point here, we're going to
- 14:02go higher. The mag seven, if you have
- 14:04not seen, are near all-time highs.
- 14:06That's an important read to me with
- 14:08consumer agents. I'll get into that as I
- 14:10go through this. Demand is greater than
- 14:12supply.
- 14:14It's going to remain that way for a long
- 14:17time in my opinion. I don't see how we
- 14:19can catch up. It's just physics. We'll
- 14:21solve problems with intelligent uh with
- 14:24Einstein level intelligent but we still
- 14:27you can come up with a solution and say
- 14:29this is a better battery but then you
- 14:30have to go build the bit the better
- 14:31battery. It's not that simple to get the
- 14:33parts. This guy gets 172 million views.
- 14:38Obviously this is involving politics.
- 14:40Obviously this is involving geopolitics.
- 14:43There is no way for this thing to go
- 14:45this viral and for this to be there.
- 14:47We're ahead of a midterm. So, if you
- 14:48guys are going to listen and get all
- 14:50caught up in this, it's obvious that
- 14:52this is part some of this because it is
- 14:55a major issue. Whether this slows down
- 14:58the uh anthropic open AI because they
- 15:01have to redo the risk side, I don't
- 15:03really know. But I do know this. It just
- 15:05seems way too political at this point
- 15:09and way too we don't want to be
- 15:10responsible for the liability of what
- 15:12may happen. Again, Jeffrey Hinton, the
- 15:15godfather of AI, has been talking about
- 15:16how dangerous AI is for a long time. We
- 15:19had 87 million views on this Matt
- 15:22Schumer one that there'd be no jobs by
- 15:242028. The Satranei one by 2028, same
- 15:27thing. 28.7 million.
- 15:30Oh, we have a cancer vaccine, 11
- 15:33million. People want to see the end of
- 15:36the world. That's what sells and that's
- 15:38what gets the hype. And I said
- 15:40geopolitical. If the Russians, Chinese,
- 15:42Iranians, and anyone that's at battle
- 15:44with the US wants to break us
- 15:46politically, the easiest thing to do is
- 15:48continue to make data centers an issue,
- 15:50make AI an issue, and everything else.
- 15:52Whatever the the facts are, we had a
- 15:55cancer vaccine. I can't think of
- 15:57anything more important. And yet, we're
- 15:59focused on things which are the same
- 16:01things that have gone on. This had three
- 16:04million views. This was June 6, 2023.
- 16:06This was less than six months after the
- 16:08launch of ChatGpt. Why AI will save the
- 16:12world. He had to write this because
- 16:15people are freaking out. So, this has
- 16:17been going on, guys, for a long time.
- 16:20China's not buying Silicon Valley's call
- 16:22for an AI slowdown. They would love an
- 16:23AI slowdown. We also had oil prices go
- 16:26up. Scary. As I've talked about,
- 16:31oil is $105, guys. The next time someone
- 16:35tells you oil is going higher and they
- 16:36show you a chart, you tell them Jordy
- 16:38Visser was in China in 2008. Oil was
- 16:41$150
- 16:43can household net worth is up, I don't
- 16:45know, three times where it is. We've
- 16:47added a hundred and something trillion
- 16:48dollars. Gas as a percentage of
- 16:50disposable income for this country has
- 16:52never been lower. We are now a gas
- 16:54provider. Yes, some of the world is
- 16:56going to have problems in in gas being
- 16:57higher, but at the same point, their net
- 16:59worth is higher as well. This is just
- 17:02completely stupid. Does it mean headline
- 17:05inflation will be a little bit higher?
- 17:07Yeah, but it's not 2022.
- 17:10Stocks falls, Fed delivers hawkish rate
- 17:12hike. We just raised 25 basis points.
- 17:14Maybe we'll do another 50 over the
- 17:16course there. I didn't think we'd do one
- 17:18this year because CPI core CPI has kept
- 17:20going lower, but they decided to do it
- 17:22because for whatever reason he was put
- 17:25into it. I have no idea. I really don't
- 17:26care. They're panicked about rates,
- 17:28whatever. But here's the facts. This is
- 17:30not 2022. We don't have 10% inflation
- 17:33playing from a behind the curve. We have
- 17:34core CPI going down. As I'm going to
- 17:37show you with Goldman Sachs forecast and
- 17:39with everyone that knows, the PCE core
- 17:40is going to go down because of things
- 17:42that are coming out of it. The main
- 17:44point of this is they raised 25 basis
- 17:46points. this as much as I want people to
- 17:48think as I saw a bunch of macro people
- 17:51getting paid money to deliver forecasts
- 17:53saying that this meant stocks would go
- 17:55down because stocks don't like when
- 17:57rates go higher. I'm going to say this
- 17:59once I'm going to show you guys as
- 18:01things go on before 2008
- 18:05before then we had recessions
- 18:08or before 2009 and the reason we did is
- 18:11because rates really mattered. When
- 18:13rates went higher, the economy was based
- 18:16on corporate debt at companies that ran
- 18:20into really big problems and homeowners
- 18:23whose house prices went down because
- 18:25rates went higher. Right now, we have
- 18:28tons of equity in the housing market and
- 18:29everyone's trapped because they locked
- 18:31in mortgages at lower rates. So, we
- 18:32don't have the rate sensitivity there.
- 18:34Second thing is, I don't know if you
- 18:36guys know this, Nvidia's $5 trillion. As
- 18:39I'll show you later, the total sum of
- 18:42the consumer discretionary household
- 18:44durables, retails, restaurants, those
- 18:46companies, including some big ones like
- 18:48Home Depot and McDonald's, not including
- 18:51Amazon,
- 18:53one a half trillion. Nvidia is five and
- 18:56a quarter trillion. The stock market
- 18:58represents what is driving growth. The
- 19:00Mag 7 are much bigger. They have no rate
- 19:03sensitivity. whatsoever. The AI trade,
- 19:05despite what you'll hear from bond
- 19:06people, have no rate sensitivity
- 19:08whatsoever in what's going on. Mark
- 19:10Xandandy,
- 19:12these are true. Economy is already
- 19:14growing near full potential. True.
- 19:16Operating at full employment. True.
- 19:17Inflation is too high to be sure,
- 19:19running above 3%, but much of that is
- 19:20the fallout from high energy prices and
- 19:22tariffs. True. AI related infra
- 19:25investment appears to be powering the
- 19:26economy. True. While the nonAI economy
- 19:28is already struggling, true. To hit its
- 19:31inflation objective, the Fed either
- 19:33needs to rein in the AI boom, true, or
- 19:35put even more pressure on the rest of
- 19:36the economy. Neither is a good outcome.
- 19:38This is the point I keep making. Your
- 19:39job is to make money. It is not to sit
- 19:41there and think about the past. Remember
- 19:43Visser Labs, the V the left side linear.
- 19:46This is where your economists are giving
- 19:48you BS.
- 19:51The Goldman P [clears throat] core
- 19:53inflation forecast. [cough]
- 19:57again the effects of temporary factors
- 19:59the portfolio management effect all
- 20:01these things everyone knows this I just
- 20:03don't understand why people don't talk
- 20:04about it in terms of what's going to
- 20:06happen PCE core is the only one so core
- 20:10CPI is down at 2.3 plus%
- 20:14it's barely above PC core is higher for
- 20:17the reasons that they have here the
- 20:18software and accessories is due to this
- 20:21having a different waiting in the micron
- 20:24thing there's a double counting side
- 20:25there's everyone already knows this, but
- 20:27we're scaring people. So, is the market
- 20:30responding? Is the bare market
- 20:31happening? Yes, it is. Here's the
- 20:33restaurants trading at 52- week lows.
- 20:34Look at this collapse on rates and oil.
- 20:38XRT. Now, this includes Amazon, but it's
- 20:41equal weight. So, it's a small portion
- 20:42of Amazon. Here we go. Falling
- 20:44continuously.
- 20:46Here's the household durables. This
- 20:47includes homebuilders. Includes Home
- 20:49Depot. Look at it trading off. This is
- 20:53the Goldman Sachs lowinccome consumer
- 20:55basket getting near, it's the lows of
- 20:57the year, near 52- week lows. Like I
- 21:00said before, here are the GIX level two
- 21:04EPS revisions.
- 21:07Look at these massive numbers. The AI
- 21:10trade and comm and energy massive
- 21:14numbers.
- 21:15Here's what you guys are looking at.
- 21:18This is the ones where the revisions are
- 21:20going lower which is all related to the
- 21:23consumer. Now media and entertainment
- 21:25you have to strip out Google, Netflix
- 21:28and Meta and then what you're left with
- 21:32on the revisions negative I that's the
- 21:3511 trillion. So when you go through this
- 21:36the total sum of these is very very tiny
- 21:41and that's why you have this. So in 2022
- 21:45when it was time to be bearish stocks as
- 21:47people are telling you now and writing
- 21:49saying they're raising rates you have to
- 21:50be bearish stocks you don't have to be
- 21:51bearish stocks here is revisions massive
- 21:55negative in 2022 and again people were
- 21:58forecasting a recession never happened
- 22:00but equities did run into trouble the
- 22:03hangover from 2021 and the overhiring
- 22:06the overspending that's what ended up
- 22:08raining in this time it's not happening
- 22:11now could we get a you know GPU prices,
- 22:15chip prices to come down. Could we see
- 22:17bottlenecks that slow things down and
- 22:18then you're just left with the debt
- 22:20sitting out there? Of course, we don't
- 22:22have any indication of that like I've
- 22:24said and at this point right now because
- 22:26AI is accelerating, I'll take the other
- 22:29side on this. Um here's 2025. And the
- 22:32reason I wanted to bring this up again,
- 22:34I'll show this later too, but these
- 22:36periods in time were during periods of
- 22:39this is the tariff fears and then this
- 22:41is the 2022. These were recession fears.
- 22:44We don't have that right now. So, I put
- 22:46this out from a bearish week. You had a
- 22:48hot PPI the Thursday before. You had a
- 22:50hot CPI the Friday before. You had 10%
- 22:53chance humanity dies. You had a pause in
- 22:56AI. You had the Fed hawkish hike. Brent
- 22:58hits 110 for the first time uh or hits
- 23:02110. I don't know if it was the first
- 23:04time from since whatever March. Tenure
- 23:06rates at the highest level since 2007.
- 23:10That was the week. And for the week, the
- 23:12S&P futures finished down about 30 basis
- 23:15points.
- 23:17But the AI bare reading hits 53.
- 23:22So I wanted to give you guys
- 23:26Well, I guess I'll get into that later.
- 23:29Here were the daily moves. This is in
- 23:31sigas. So for all of the negative stuff
- 23:33that's been happening with oil with
- 23:34Iran, we can't even get a one sigma move
- 23:36on depressed V. So, this is taking the
- 23:40implied V, which is the VIX, converting
- 23:42it into a daily move, and then taking
- 23:44the daily move. We're just not, we've
- 23:46been basically going sideways. This is a
- 23:49nice looking reverse and head and
- 23:50shoulders chart. But regardless of that,
- 23:52this is only a five-day chart. This is
- 23:54when people were calling me. And by the
- 23:56way, for people calling me asking me
- 23:58where futures are going to open up on on
- 23:59Sunday night, you guys start looking at
- 24:01spy per. Just go into Coinbase and start
- 24:03looking. You got to get used to 247
- 24:05tokenized trading, guys. It's time. Um,
- 24:07you got to start getting some get
- 24:09getting getting getting ahead of the
- 24:10program here. Um, so we open down here
- 24:13and we're here. So you get this gap.
- 24:15Well, that cost you money for a while.
- 24:17Then the Fed came out. Oh, hawkish hike.
- 24:19Let's sell it off. And then the next day
- 24:20we go right back up right through it
- 24:22immediately. Kind of come down a little
- 24:24and then we continue going on. So since
- 24:29June 25th, that's what those circles
- 24:31were that I wanted to highlight to you
- 24:33guys. Since June 25th,
- 24:35oil prices have gone from 67 to 92. So
- 24:40that's 25 bucks. Since June 25th, since
- 24:44June 25th, 10ear rates have gone from
- 24:47430 to 502. You guys are worried now. I
- 24:51mean, look how far we've gone up.
- 24:55Two-year rates have gone from 415 to
- 24:58473.
- 25:00Oh my gosh. Since June, since right
- 25:02there, tech momentum fell 48%.
- 25:06Oh wow. We've seen credit spreads widen,
- 25:09CDS has widened on the hyperscalers.
- 25:13And here's the Mag 7. This was the Mag 7
- 25:16on June 25th.
- 25:18So if you're worried about the AI trade,
- 25:21isn't it going to have to come to some
- 25:23degree from these guys? It's not going
- 25:25to be from Anthropic and OpenAI stock
- 25:27price. when we see their earnings, it
- 25:29could come through. Now, during true
- 25:32bare markets where there's bare things,
- 25:33the mag seven goes down. So, this is
- 25:36during the uh selloff here. You need the
- 25:38mag 7 going down, not about to make new
- 25:40all-time highs. Same thing down here.
- 25:43So, I just bring this up again so you
- 25:45guys can start to go through. If you're
- 25:46worried about the bond market, like I've
- 25:48said repeatedly for a while, you should
- 25:50have credit spreads widening and you
- 25:52should have bond volatility spiking
- 25:54higher. We can't even barely get a move
- 25:56in bond. Here is HYG relative to EF, my
- 26:00proxy for the S&P N4 credit to strip out
- 26:03yield differential. And we made new
- 26:05highs
- 26:07for the last year in HYG relative to EF.
- 26:12And remember when this sold off here,
- 26:14what was this off of? Well, this was on
- 26:16the private credit side. So, it was
- 26:18responding to that. This was on
- 26:20combination. You had Iran, you had all
- 26:22this, but private credit started this
- 26:24move here. Right now, private credit HYG
- 26:27is going higher. S&P that's where it was
- 26:29on June 25th. So, despite all the rise
- 26:31in tenure rates and all the ride in
- 26:32crude. So, I just want to tell you
- 26:34something. If it was able to do this
- 26:37with crude moving up that much, we're
- 26:40now to the end of the year. There is a
- 26:42less than 40% expectation of any kind of
- 26:45ceasefire with Iran. Now that we have a
- 26:48hawkish height and we already have rates
- 26:50at 5%. Isn't the risk for everyone who
- 26:53said sell equities this week if crude
- 26:56falls 10 bucks at some point for any
- 26:58reason which a tweet could do. Do you
- 27:01think stocks won't be at new all-time
- 27:03highs if they can handle all the bad
- 27:05news? AI trade again. This is when I did
- 27:09my famous bailout of Micron and then
- 27:11this is when I did my June 4th was when
- 27:13I did my the midcycle slowdown. I am
- 27:16still not increasing AI and I've had a
- 27:19lot of people reach out. I about 20% of
- 27:22my portfolio right now is in the AI
- 27:24trade. Back here it was about 80. As I
- 27:27mentioned, crypto and silver now make up
- 27:28most with the crypto massive performance
- 27:31since I did the rotation.
- 27:34It's much bigger. And I keep adding to
- 27:36crypto. I'm not adding to the AI names
- 27:38at this point. I still have Marll. I
- 27:40still have Nvidia as the two biggest.
- 27:41Eli Liy, which I consider an AI name, is
- 27:44a big position, but that's not the AI
- 27:46trade that you guys are looking for. I
- 27:48still own Yes. A AOI. I still own
- 27:50Fluence even though it's fallen about
- 27:5280%. For those of you who are trading,
- 27:54if you're picking oneoff names in here,
- 27:57the reason I have a bunch of names is
- 27:59because I move my portfolio around based
- 28:01on the things that I provide the biggest
- 28:03opportunity. Even though crypto's had a
- 28:04big rally, if you ask me what has the
- 28:06best riskreward for me over the next
- 28:09year, it is still crypto, not the AI
- 28:11infrastructure trade. And that is
- 28:13because crypto is an AI trade. It is
- 28:15part of my thematic AI portfolio, but it
- 28:18is not part of the agent one which I'm
- 28:20working on now. Again, this is about as
- 28:24bullish as it gets. The MAG7's up there.
- 28:26They benefit tremendously from the AI
- 28:28agents. Here is the AI 53 level. This is
- 28:33a big level except for this point.
- 28:36point. I mean, this goes back only two
- 28:38times that we've hit this level in the
- 28:40last four years were during the complete
- 28:43chaos of 2022
- 28:46and during the tariffs
- 28:50to show you how unusual it is. AI be a
- 28:54AI AI bearish over since 1990. So, 1875
- 28:58weeks only happens four and a half times
- 29:01out of 100. Okay, these are the
- 29:03performance going forward for these when
- 29:06you combine this with a VIX which is
- 29:08lower than 20. So think about that. You
- 29:10have a bearishness
- 29:13but the cost of insurance is low. Well,
- 29:16that seems like a good time to be
- 29:18looking at the long side and it is n 89%
- 29:22of the time. It's 10 times over the last
- 29:25whatever years doesn't happen often. 53
- 29:27basis 50.53%.
- 29:30Now to also get it above 50 in a
- 29:32structural bull market defined by the
- 29:33S&P above its 50week moving average that
- 29:37happens 1% of the time again very good
- 29:39positive numbers with all three
- 29:41conditions so VIX is low we're in a
- 29:45structural bull market bearishness is
- 29:47high only nine times and again very
- 29:49solid numbers so
- 29:51this doesn't happen and as I wrote
- 29:55this would be one of the more structural
- 29:56positive things to be in a bare market
- 29:58while people are getting bare bearish to
- 30:00be in a bull market while people are
- 30:01getting bearish and that's where we are
- 30:02now. So for everyone saying sell
- 30:04equities I think you're in a very
- 30:06dangerous position based on history
- 30:08given that you're joining the bear crowd
- 30:09which is already there climbing the wall
- 30:11of worry. This is a classic definition
- 30:13of it
- 30:15and again the mag seven here they were
- 30:17back on that June 25th when all the bad
- 30:19news and they're near the highs of a
- 30:22quarter. Now,
- 30:25the Mag 7, the reason I brought them up
- 30:26there is there's another thing going on.
- 30:29The Mag 7, very seldom this year, have
- 30:33all seven of them, all seven of them.
- 30:36So, that includes the hyperscalers, plus
- 30:38Apple, plus Nvidia, plus Tesla.
- 30:42They're uh they haven't been above the
- 30:4450-day moving average, all of them,
- 30:47except for eight days the entire year.
- 30:49These are the periods. The last time was
- 30:51June 4th. So I do view this as if we're
- 30:55going to get a big move higher in
- 30:56equities, I think one of the reasons
- 30:58would be because all of the mag seven
- 31:00are benefiting. Now if you add in
- 31:02Oracle, you get less days. The reason I
- 31:04care about Oracle is because it is a
- 31:06very large stock and a hyperscaler. And
- 31:08I believe this bearish sentiment, a lot
- 31:11of it for the market began in October of
- 31:13last year with the CDS blowing out on
- 31:15Oracle. And I don't think it's ever left
- 31:17people. I think the people that thought
- 31:18it was a bubble in October missed the
- 31:20entire rally in terms of semiconductors
- 31:23and now they're sitting there still
- 31:25bearish because the AI trade has peaked
- 31:28and even though it's still up massively,
- 31:30Korea is still up 60% year to date. Uh
- 31:33Taiwan is about to make new all-time
- 31:35highs, all of that, you've had eight
- 31:37days. Now to put that in context, this
- 31:39year only four and a half% of the
- 31:42trading days has that occurred in 2023.
- 31:4536% of the time we've been declining on
- 31:48the MAG 7 being above the 50-day. I
- 31:50think this is an important period to
- 31:52watch because they're breaking out and
- 31:54unlike the prior times where Meta was
- 31:56collapsing and Microsoft was collapsing
- 31:57and the AI was going to destroy. They're
- 32:00all sitting there and I think that's
- 32:01because of AI agents, they all benefit
- 32:03from AI agents. All of them. And that's
- 32:05the point I want to get into. The reason
- 32:07the economy is different again the
- 32:09economy is based on the top 10%.
- 32:13the bottom part of the economy gets
- 32:15transfer payments. So unless you're
- 32:16going to fire people, which is not
- 32:18happening, how do you get anything bad
- 32:21in the stock market if everyone has
- 32:23money to spend and you're doing it
- 32:25because oil is going higher, which I'm
- 32:27telling you does not matter the way it
- 32:29used to. Gas prices as a percentage of
- 32:31disposable income remain near historic
- 32:32low. If you do gas prices as a
- 32:34percentage of household wealth, it's an
- 32:37even bigger joke. Oil doesn't matter the
- 32:40way it used to. The AI boom is
- 32:42transforming America. We know that this
- 32:45is chat GPT. This is what's going on. I
- 32:49mean, give me a break. Jensen Yuang
- 32:51spoke this week. So for everyone who
- 32:53listened to the anthropic kid, who
- 32:55listened to Dario Moda, just go listen
- 32:57to Jensen. And at the all-in summit,
- 32:59whenever you listen to him, especially
- 33:01at a time like this, and yes, President
- 33:03Trump called him while he was on stage,
- 33:05but this is really about what he said
- 33:08about everything happening today and the
- 33:10industrial revolution that's going on.
- 33:11Don't lose focus on this because you're
- 33:14worried about people telling you it's
- 33:16time to be bearish. Brad Gersonner went
- 33:18through everything and I thought he was
- 33:20very, very balanced in terms of the way
- 33:21that he approached this. It's worth
- 33:24listening. It's worth going through. So
- 33:27the AI labs just in terms of this
- 33:30anthropic and open AI. This is kind of
- 33:32the you know really the the critical
- 33:34thing and he talks about it. So I'm not
- 33:37giving you any of the uh I'm not taking
- 33:39you through the transcript uh in terms
- 33:42of the important points because I think
- 33:43you guys should just go watch those two
- 33:45and get this thing out of your mind.
- 33:46Okay? If you haven't brought this up,
- 33:49bring it up in an LLM and start doing so
- 33:52you can check some of the things I'm
- 33:53going to show you. But this is really
- 33:55important. Whatever you think or know of
- 33:57Liupold uh Ashen Brener, this paper came
- 34:01out 2024, the decade ahead,
- 34:06two almost I mean he's six the the the
- 34:10models are six months ahead. So this
- 34:12automated I AI researcher point is
- 34:14really really critical. So this is
- 34:16effectively one of the um slides. I
- 34:21believe it's on page 71. But this is
- 34:23what happens. And the reason this is
- 34:26important, don't think of it as AGI or
- 34:28ASI or anything like that. I'm going to
- 34:31take you through, but this is the point
- 34:33where what's happening right now is
- 34:35exactly what this is, the hackings.
- 34:39So that's the negative side of reaching
- 34:41this point is the hugging face episode,
- 34:44the mythos fears. We've reached this
- 34:47point, but there's a lot of good that
- 34:49comes from it too. So we've already
- 34:52accomplished based on his research and
- 34:54these are the facts between the releases
- 34:56and the key things that have happened
- 34:57this year. It's really important for you
- 35:00to understand how fast this is moving
- 35:02and ignore the people that are telling
- 35:05you that there's too much debt. I don't
- 35:07know how to get this out of people's
- 35:09mind. It is so insane to me that people
- 35:11are worried about the investment grade
- 35:13debt for the best balance sheets on the
- 35:15planet when they're sitting there
- 35:16watching that the United States of
- 35:18America can have $40 trillion of debt,
- 35:20which everyone keeps telling you and Ray
- 35:22Dalia has tried to make a living post
- 35:24the hedge fund telling you how bad this
- 35:26is going to be because we have so much
- 35:28debt. Yes, Japan's been in this problem
- 35:30forever. AI is a government thing.
- 35:34There's no way we allow the whole thing
- 35:36to come down. So, this comes down to
- 35:39usage. And like I said before, I don't
- 35:42know how to tell people. We're past
- 35:44humans adopting it. That's why this is
- 35:46working. And that's why what he's saying
- 35:47is so important. When you get to the
- 35:50point of the RSI, the recursive
- 35:52self-improvement, the point where you've
- 35:54got autonomous researchers, that means
- 35:58companies can just say, as I showed with
- 36:00Astra last week, build this for me. and
- 36:03it's built. We're at the point now where
- 36:05that means that Salesforce.com can hand
- 36:07out products to people with agents. Like
- 36:10the agentic side is where adoption
- 36:12starts to accelerate and it goes at the
- 36:14expense of expenses. It's a productivity
- 36:17boom. And that's what he talks about in
- 36:19the paper. That's where we are right now
- 36:21is millions of AI researchers operating
- 36:23faster than humans. But it is all this
- 36:27point here that was supposed to be in
- 36:302027 that's happening now early stages
- 36:33now. This is the part here and that
- 36:35means we're accelerating things and
- 36:37nobody expected it to happen this fast.
- 36:39So that's why an anthropic researcher
- 36:41believes they're absolutely 10%. In
- 36:45fact, Elon Musk gave an interview with
- 36:48Ted Cruz during the summer where he said
- 36:49there's a 20 maybe 10% chance advanced
- 36:51AI leads to human extinction within the
- 36:53next 10 5 10 years. That would be the
- 36:56headline for the media. But then he
- 36:58says, but there's an 80 to 90% full that
- 37:03it's extreme prosperity.
- 37:08So if you're managing money and you
- 37:11worry about this if there's no humanity,
- 37:14don't worry. Nobody's going to pay you.
- 37:17So there's no need to bet on it. The
- 37:19expected value of a 10% chance of the
- 37:22end of humanity and 90% chance of
- 37:24abundance is basically all upside. So
- 37:26you can sit there and play the game. You
- 37:28can listen to it. You can pretend that
- 37:30that's there. I'm just telling you the
- 37:32demand side is from nonhumans. The
- 37:35adoption is happening from agents. This
- 37:37is why it's so important to crypto. As
- 37:39someone who set up a Robin Hood
- 37:41blockchain uh wallet, it took me four
- 37:45hours. I use AI all day long. There were
- 37:50so many things to get through. So, I
- 37:52need an agent to do this for me quickly
- 37:54and go through the pain to speak the
- 37:56language and not have to go look it up.
- 37:58That's why we're entering a period where
- 38:00the models are coming out so fast that
- 38:02you don't know how to keep up. Which
- 38:03model do I get? Astra came out. Fable
- 38:065.1. That's because the models are
- 38:08coming too fast. That's an indication
- 38:10that the agentic world is here and
- 38:12humans can't handle the speed. We cannot
- 38:15handle the speed. But luckily, the debt
- 38:18is in human speed. The it the demand is
- 38:22going to come from companies that have
- 38:24trillions of dollars of revenues that
- 38:26will easily be able to give trillions of
- 38:28dollars to the model companies. And
- 38:30there's no way that open-source is as
- 38:32good as the model companies. So, it'll
- 38:35be 90%. If you want to use Jensen
- 38:37Yuang's thing, there's plenty of water
- 38:39that we use in our lives. Not a lot that
- 38:41we pay for, but we all pay for bottled
- 38:44water. So, again, you can go through
- 38:47this thing and try to figure it out
- 38:48where it is the positive side of agents
- 38:50forms. And this is where I come in to
- 38:52hopefully the same way I have the
- 38:54Agentic infrastructure portfolio, which
- 38:56I'm saying will continue to outperform
- 38:58the S&P 500 by 20 to 40% a year. So,
- 39:01there's alpha. All of those hundred
- 39:03names, in my opinion, will outperform.
- 39:05They'll go at different times. Not all
- 39:07of them will work. My job is to give you
- 39:09an index that works. If you try to pick
- 39:11one name, you're taking now risk in that
- 39:14one name. The agent swarms. How do you
- 39:17get long? Here are all the things that
- 39:20come with that. We're at the time for
- 39:22robotics and physical systems, which
- 39:24means Tesla should be doing well. Okay,
- 39:26that's one to watch. the consumer
- 39:28agents. Well, this is where Microsoft,
- 39:30Salesforce.com, Meta, Apple, all of them
- 39:35fit into the consumer agent side. Uh,
- 39:37when you get into the digital labor
- 39:38side, when you get into this, this is my
- 39:40favorite one, the scientific discovery,
- 39:43which I'll kind of go through, but agent
- 39:45swarms solve unfinished IP. There's a
- 39:48business there. Autonomous commerce,
- 39:51this is your crypto side. So, again, all
- 39:54of this stuff is necessary. The
- 39:55infrastructure is still there. I will
- 39:57create an index which will have all of
- 40:00these and all the names that I think
- 40:01benefit in there that'll go on the
- 40:03subscriber wall sometime over the course
- 40:04of the next two weeks but I am focused
- 40:06on crypto mainly. So when you think
- 40:08about it this way and you go through it
- 40:11agents are opening up all of this part
- 40:13here. So we had the compute and power
- 40:16that led us to get the intelligence up
- 40:18to an IQ at Einstein level and now
- 40:21cryptos are the main benefit and because
- 40:23there is no investment there at all
- 40:25because it is completely not understood.
- 40:28Unlike the power and compute side which
- 40:31got got way too big way too quick,
- 40:35this one's going to take years. So go
- 40:37spend your time now on it. Go understand
- 40:39the things I'm talking about. Longevity.
- 40:41This is a phenomenal place to make
- 40:42money. And it fits with the unfinished
- 40:45IP endorant knowledge. Any IP, any
- 40:48biotech company based on Navier Stokes
- 40:51is worth a lot of money. The data
- 40:54proprietary data all of a sudden. So
- 40:57fact set Thompson Reuters because we
- 40:59have agents now. All of the data becomes
- 41:01more valuable. The cyber become cyber
- 41:04becomes more valuable. Everything
- 41:05becomes more valuable. That's why you've
- 41:07seen this and embodied AI starts to take
- 41:09off because they need the agentic side
- 41:11too. So again, you can go through this
- 41:13on your own. We've reached this point.
- 41:15It's connecting his vision at when we
- 41:16reach here. This is the infrastructure
- 41:18side. This only happens when we have
- 41:20enough compute. So I want you to think
- 41:23this way as I go through this, which is
- 41:26two ways to organize intelligence. You
- 41:29just saw Oppenheimer. This is the
- 41:30easiest way to understand the importance
- 41:32of this. In the movie, Groves wanted to
- 41:35compartmentalize
- 41:37the different verticals and have them
- 41:39come in and bring their information with
- 41:41one little thing side. He wanted to
- 41:43coordinate scientific collaboration.
- 41:45When you go read the Navier Stokes side,
- 41:48this is what the agents did.
- 41:51Humans could have solved Navier Stokes
- 41:54in my opinion if they had all worked
- 41:56together. But the Field Medal, the Nobel
- 41:59Prize, the way academia is set up,
- 42:02you've heard me all speak negatively
- 42:03about my experience and my belief in
- 42:06what the school system does. It is the
- 42:08best way to get people to be trained for
- 42:11a particular major. But that ended with
- 42:13the internet. And with the internet,
- 42:15we've gotten to a point where you have
- 42:17to be creative. And it's only gotten
- 42:19more and more. So Steve Jobs, all of
- 42:22these people that invented and were the
- 42:24wealthiest people, go back and look at
- 42:25their job, their work situation. It's
- 42:27not all of them because then you started
- 42:29getting into the engineers, but again,
- 42:31having creativity, thinking outside the
- 42:34box, using the other side of your brain.
- 42:36Well, agents are basically going to be
- 42:38solving things and they're going to be
- 42:39doing it just like Oppenheimer. So there
- 42:42were about 600 brainiacs uh at the
- 42:44Manhattan project. There were a lot more
- 42:46people in general. But of the brainiac
- 42:48side, the Einstein side, Navier Stokes
- 42:51was solved by 10,000 agents working for
- 42:5488 hours.
- 42:57All problems will be solved. And that's
- 42:59why I've compared this to that. And this
- 43:02is why the acceleration of disruption
- 43:05will increase. AI native businesses have
- 43:09a huge advantage. The democratization of
- 43:12intelligence is best used in
- 43:16organizations where they don't have the
- 43:18friction and the difficulty of meetings
- 43:22and people and decision makers and
- 43:24devil's advocates and all of this stuff
- 43:26that goes on and I've been a part of
- 43:28that and I work there. So traditional
- 43:30human research here you go all the
- 43:33friction that gets to an answer. the
- 43:35agent swarms why they can do something
- 43:37that Einstein or a problem that was
- 43:40there before Einstein
- 43:43and for everyone saying oh yeah the guys
- 43:45who were working on it said that they
- 43:47must have stolen their stolen or why
- 43:49aren't they just happy that it was
- 43:51solved and they were part of the process
- 43:53if that's what happened. So again,
- 43:56humans are already saying this is bad
- 43:57for science. This is bad for math. This
- 43:59will again, nobody's going to be happy
- 44:02in this with humans. That is the lite
- 44:04story. That is every anger that comes
- 44:06with technology. So I've been spending
- 44:09time I am writing something on the
- 44:12revaluation of IP in an agentic world
- 44:15and how the value of it goes higher.
- 44:17This fits in with my Eli Liy theme. Eli
- 44:20Liy has tons of capital coming in. They
- 44:23are buying IP every day. They are also
- 44:26bringing in biotech companies into toune
- 44:29lab which you guys should go look up and
- 44:32then understand the value of toune lab
- 44:34from the collaboration in the swarm
- 44:36perspective. So I believe that biotech
- 44:40is part of the consumer agent trade that
- 44:42Eli Liy is part of the consumer agent
- 44:44trade and the way a biotech will trade
- 44:46is like it did with Maderna. as we get
- 44:49breakthroughs, they don't trade in a
- 44:51fundamental basis. They just gap higher.
- 44:53And you don't need all of them to go
- 44:55higher to win. If you get a 10 bagger
- 44:58and a 20 bagger and a 30 bagger and I
- 44:59fully expect that we will see that in
- 45:01the biotech side over time. Muse was
- 45:04released. We are getting the first
- 45:06personal AI agent built for everyone.
- 45:08Now, the reason this is important is I
- 45:10want you to go back to when Mark
- 45:11Zuckerberg spoke at a town hall in June
- 45:13and he said, "We are way behind on the
- 45:16AI side." and it was related to AI
- 45:18agents. The latest viral AI assistant
- 45:21rocketing across Silicon Valley. Buzzy
- 45:24startup Instinct, which is fundraising
- 45:26at a 2 and a half billion valuation.
- 45:28That was on August 26, 2026.
- 45:31Go read about Instinct. Now, if you
- 45:34don't want to read about it, there you
- 45:36go. Here's a YouTube Instinct AI is for
- 45:38real. This came out this week.
- 45:41Here's what I'm I'm not going to go
- 45:43through everything, but basically, and I
- 45:46talked about this with Pomp on our video
- 45:48this week because he's been using it. I
- 45:50have not, but all of these horrible
- 45:52things like applying for visas, and I
- 45:54and yes, if you have an assistant at
- 45:56work, but that assistant at work is
- 45:58doing it. all the personal assistance
- 46:00stuff, what they can do, the time
- 46:02savings, the money savings, coordinating
- 46:04with other people's agents, negotiating,
- 46:06reducing bills, cancelling subscription.
- 46:08All you got to do is tell this thing it
- 46:10it will go out there and do it
- 46:13just needs the information. So AI
- 46:15agents, techbased AI assistants are a
- 46:18hot market with Instinct, W Joe Town,
- 46:20Ali, and Meta's Muse Agent, which
- 46:22launched last week, vying for users
- 46:23attention.
- 46:26We're at the consumer agent side, guys.
- 46:29I've been waiting for this. I didn't
- 46:31expect it to happen this fast, but when
- 46:33we get the hugging face incident, when
- 46:36we get the Navier Stokes incident, that
- 46:38means we're there. When we get the pause
- 46:40AI incident, that means we're there. We
- 46:42are at the agentic side. And so, you're
- 46:45going to have a new economy. And for
- 46:47everyone on the macro side where it was
- 46:49well M2 growth then we get nominal GDP
- 46:52that translates into some multiple and
- 46:54topline revenue. We get earnings to grow
- 46:56and we hire people. The missing link
- 46:58we're not hiring anyone zero people. The
- 47:02only people getting hired are in
- 47:03healthcare. Earnings are booming at
- 47:06close to 30%. Margins are exploding but
- 47:09we've broken this chain and this chain
- 47:12is going to get further broken because
- 47:13we don't need the liquidity anymore. The
- 47:15liquidity is going to come from
- 47:16tokenization.
- 47:18And if you don't understand that yet,
- 47:20that's why you're going to watch the
- 47:22videos,
- 47:25okay? To see the productivity breaking
- 47:27out. US earnings are breaking out of a
- 47:2990-year channel. Now, this does this
- 47:31this is not talking specifically about
- 47:34any kind of profitability related to
- 47:35productivity.
- 47:37On the upside, it's incredible when you
- 47:38consider the high growth periods of the
- 47:40past that it's just broken out. software
- 47:43revenue per employee from Warren Pies
- 47:45this week again
- 47:47channel from 2000 to 2023 you don't even
- 47:51get like a mega spike from the 2027 in
- 47:55the iPhone now all of a sudden the
- 47:58second we get AI
- 48:01and that's the exact timeline that he
- 48:02has you get a dramatic shift software
- 48:05revenue per employee
- 48:08all right let's finish up with crypto
- 48:11clarity didn't go through. Another bad
- 48:14news item for the week for crypto. So
- 48:16you had all the other bad news, oil
- 48:18prices higher, rates going higher, no
- 48:19debasement trade, everything is at for
- 48:22the last time. I will say this to both
- 48:24crypto people and macro.
- 48:27The time where crypto matters is when
- 48:29rates don't matter because all
- 48:31innovations eventually hit a spot where
- 48:33they grow regardless of rates. That is
- 48:35the whole point of innovation. But when
- 48:38you're a new innovation and you're not
- 48:40being used and it's all speculation, you
- 48:42should be correlated to liquidity. We
- 48:45are at the breaking point. So for all
- 48:46the crypto crowd that's looking for
- 48:48liquidity, that's not what this is
- 48:51about. The liquidity is going to come
- 48:52from the tokenization of dormant assets.
- 48:56It's going to come from the AI agents
- 48:58using and driving revenues, driving uh
- 49:02fees, driving activity, and the
- 49:04developers going and building there. So,
- 49:07the Clarity Act doesn't get through, but
- 49:09US markets are set to expand to a
- 49:1123-hour weekday trading on December 6th,
- 49:16huh? So, that's just weekday.
- 49:18Eventually, we'll be doing weekends. Per
- 49:21can get you there. Now, US Securities
- 49:23Regular rolls out a five-year exemption
- 49:26for tokenized stocks.
- 49:30Guys, this is this is why this is so
- 49:32important. So, here we go. If you build
- 49:36it,
- 49:37they will come. The infrastructure comes
- 49:39first. The economy begins when the
- 49:41people arrive.
- 49:43Humans could never use crypto. But the
- 49:45ghost city, the old famous Chinese ghost
- 49:47city. What have we been building,
- 49:49waiting for this to light up and be
- 49:50economically there right now? It's a
- 49:53complete ghost city. It is like exactly
- 49:55like
- 49:572007 and 2008. What was 20207 and 2008?
- 50:02That was the post.com bubble. we still
- 50:04had nothing going on. Now in 2007 it did
- 50:07change. Then we got the uh the great
- 50:10financial crisis. So let's say 2004 2005
- 50:13the infrastructure was built. The
- 50:15telecom companies blew up. That's what
- 50:17happened in crypto in 2022 and all of
- 50:19those entrepreneurs and the stuff that
- 50:21went on. There's been dumping of stuff.
- 50:22You've had that companies bailing out.
- 50:24Everything has been an issue. But we
- 50:28built the infrastructure for this. It's
- 50:31all for AI agents. So when do you want
- 50:34to invest? You want to invest when the
- 50:36ghost city starts to fill up. When the
- 50:38ghost city fills up, particularly when
- 50:40there's no investment there, this will
- 50:42all be new stuff and it will be taking
- 50:43away from the traditional finance world.
- 50:46So three trillion market cap, let's say
- 50:48four after today for crypto,
- 50:51$900 trillion in the fiat system. No
- 50:56reason for wealthy people to invest over
- 50:58here without it being fundamentals. No
- 51:00need speculation wise. They got plenty
- 51:01of places to speculate. The agents are
- 51:04there. The agents are going to be doing
- 51:05all of the business and it will generate
- 51:08the flows and it's already starting to
- 51:09happen. So you get crypto before and
- 51:12then you get crypto after. This is where
- 51:14we are in the bridge that's being built
- 51:16is through tokenization and through all
- 51:17the pieces. AI agents will need their
- 51:20own financial infrastructure. 100%
- 51:22correct. So again, here's my index. It
- 51:26broke out to the highs of the year.
- 51:27There are 46 names. four uh six of them
- 51:30are public stocks like Coinbase, like
- 51:33Robin Hood, like Circle.
- 51:35The rest of them are tokens, most of
- 51:37which for the majority of you, if you're
- 51:39not cryptoreated, have heard of. Here's
- 51:41Bitcoin. I will say it again for all the
- 51:43Bitcoin maxis.
- 51:45This needs to happen to move this into
- 51:47the next level. You do not get to a
- 51:50gold-like market cap without the
- 51:52ecosystem and the usage and the
- 51:54fundamental value. So, remember, Bitcoin
- 51:57is macro. The fundamental bottoms up
- 52:00stuff is what's driving things and what
- 52:01should happen. So for all the macro
- 52:03people out there, think about how you've
- 52:05got bottoms up and you've got macro. A
- 52:06lot of macro people I knew moved into
- 52:08bottoms up eventually or bought into
- 52:11businesses that way. They work hand
- 52:13inand because they're important and
- 52:14that's where we are. The verticals so
- 52:16far this month, the digital monetary
- 52:19assets which include Ethereum and
- 52:21Bitcoin up 27%. But there's one name in
- 52:23here that's driving most of it. The
- 52:25exchange brokerage. The main thing I'm
- 52:26not going to read them all. You can read
- 52:28the verticals. They're all up monthto
- 52:30date. Now,
- 52:32again, I showed you this. Look at it on
- 52:34your own.
- 52:36Today, the index was up 8.4%. Month to
- 52:39date up 14. Year to date, up 32. Now,
- 52:43now 43 of the 46 are above the 50-day.
- 52:49The 50 days rising with 37 out of 46 and
- 52:5227 of the 46 are at the 200 day. This is
- 52:55a beginning bull market, guys. Beginning
- 53:00disclosures. I'm not here to lose you
- 53:03guys money. I'm not here to make you
- 53:04guys. I'm here to educate you and I'm
- 53:07here to help you. So, this is the
- 53:08beginning. There will be a crypto video
- 53:10out this week. Uh, it'll go out sometime
- 53:13during the week. I'll probably do a more
- 53:14thorough market update thing, too, just
- 53:17in terms of the AI thematic trade for
- 53:19the subscribers. And there will be the
- 53:21paper on ghost rails which hopefully
- 53:23will go out either over the weekend or
- 53:25on Monday, whatever the case. Uh it's
- 53:27here, guys. I've talked about it for a
