AI’s Dotcom Moment?

AI’s Dotcom Moment?

We’re skeptical of high market valuations. Since the launch of ChatGPT in late 2022, markets have soared higher, largely thanks to a surge in large-cap tech stocks.

By any conventional valuation metric, markets are overvalued. But the real question is, how much further could stocks get before they finally peak?

While history doesn’t repeat, it sure does rhyme. And currently, stocks are following the dotcom boom pattern incredibly closely:

Turn Your Images On

Tech stocks have driven markets higher in a similar pattern to the dotcom era.

Warning about markets today makes things sound a bit like when Alan Greenspan warned about “irrational exuberance.”

When he uttered those words, markets briefly declined – but it being 1997, the dotcom bubble still had most of its formation ahead.

We’re likely in a similar situation today – perhaps not quite a bubble, but the beginnings of one.

Trump’s “Big, Beautiful Bill” and deregulation will likely give the market one last squeeze higher into next year.

Consequently, we still see ample opportunity to profit from the rollout of AI technology – but we’ll also be looking for opportunities to lock in profits rather than get caught up in the mania.

The World Should Fear September 9…

Turn On Your Images.

The United Nations General Assembly isn’t typically a headline-grabber.

But the upcoming Assembly— beginning on September 9 — has an air of great urgency, because a major announcement could be forthcoming.

The potential bombshell announcement?

Well, it concerns a classified map of a “secret America” from 1946 — a map whose expanded U.S. borders could go into effect in 2025.

If enacted, this wildly controversial map would grant the federal government astonishing economic, societal, and military power.

But the investment implications could be even bigger.

P.S.: With an eye towards a stock bubble brewing, we continue to like another asset – gold.

Yes, it’s also near all-time highs, just like the stock market. But relative to key metrics like total fiat money supply, gold remains highly undervalued.

Gold also holds its intrinsic value in the face of inflation, which we just can’t seem to fully wring out of our financial system today.

In short, we like the idea of taking quick gains from today’s tech trends and moving that money out of a potential bubble and into assets like gold. You can read our report on gold’s historic rise –and how high it could go in dollar terms – here.

And this Thursday, at 11 AM on Grey Swan Live!, Andrew and I will take stock of the first half of the year. We’ll do a comprehensive review of the model portfolio and review the big trends that have impacted stock prices and the economy during the dizzying first months of the second Trump administration. Stay tuned… it promises to be a doozy.

Gold: The Only Thing Standing Still

July 11, 2025 • Dominic Frisby

Since the US confiscation of Russian assets in 2022, pretty much every pull back to 50-day moving average (red line) has been bought, and they continue to be bought. The average is now flattening out, as you would expect with this summer consolidation, rather as it did late last year. Some sideways consolidation is good. Ideally, you want to see the short-, medium- and long-term moving averages all flatten and converge. There often follows a big move higher.

Households Get It, Even if Governments Don’t

We know many consumers continue to live paycheck to paycheck. After spiking higher, the drawdown in savings—cash that can be used in an emergency—is back to pre-pandemic levels.

While the overall debt picture is ugly, in some ways it isn’t – and that it may take some more time for a debt crisis to reach a kitchen countertop near you.

The Rally That Didn’t Flinch

July 11, 2025 • Addison Wiggin

As we knock off for the week approaching mid-summer, it strikes us how hard it is to distinguish signal from noise. Markets defying gravity gives us pause.

Don’t buy in at elevated prices.

Keep your asset allocation in full view.

Buy cheap.

Sell dear.

It’s a funny old world, isn’t it?

AI is buying engineers like they’re first-round picks. The military is investing in rare earths like it’s the 1950s space race. Tariffs are flying, cocoa’s getting scarce, and your cereal may soon come with a luxury markup.

None of it, likely, concerns your portfolio.

Matt Milner: Now You Can Buy SpaceX — Should You?

This new wave of tokenized shares is exciting. It has the potential to break down walls and democratize access to pre-IPO giants.

But at the moment, it’s also risky, opaque, and largely unregulated.

So while we applaud the innovation, we urge caution — especially if you’re being offered something that seems too good to be true.
