Market Health

DANGER Weekly editorial · Updated 20 Mar 2026
Buffett Indicator
213–217%
▲ 64% above trend · 2σ overvalued vs 200% threshold
Long-term fair value ~120%. Only 3rd time in 60 years at this level.
Shiller CAPE Ratio
~38–39
= Long-term average ~17 · Dot-com was 44
Only two times in history above 40 — the other was dot-com peak.
Private Credit Stress
9.2% Default Rate
▲ Blackstone BCRED gated · BlackRock HPS limited
$265B exposure. Redemption queues 3–5 quarters. Record high default rate.
Berkshire / Abel
$381.7B Cash
▲ Greg Abel CEO Jan 2026 · Cut Apple to $60B · Sold BofA
Largest cash hoard ever. Loudest possible wait signal.
Ray Dalio / Bridgewater
Pre-1945 Signal
= Fortune interview Mar 16 · Stage 5 Big Cycle · Capital wars
AI boom 'more dangerous' phase. AIA Labs hit $5B AUM.
Howard Marks / Oaktree
'Level 3' AI Risk
▲ Bloomberg Mar 17–18 · 'Is It a Bubble?' memo
Now sees AI as full labour replacement. 'Shaken' by implications. New memo weeks away.
Jeremy Grantham / GMO
Severe Decline Ahead
= U.S. equities 2σ above real price trend
AI bubble = great tech → great bubble pattern. Profit plunge forecast.
Action: Stay defensive. No new long equity positions. Cash and short-duration bonds only. Private credit gates are the new canary — this isn't valuation noise anymore.

Key People — Cycle Theorists

DANGER Weekly editorial · Updated 20 Mar 2026
Phil Anderson
2026 = Cycle Peak
= Winner's Curse phase · Cycle 2012–2026–2031
Housing stocks rolling over, BTC speculation, banking deregulation — all classic peak signals.
Fred Harrison
Late 2026 Turning Point
= Doubled down · Land prices = engine
Binary choice approaching: mortgage vs food. When supermarket wins → market collapses.
Akhil Patel
Final Upswing Peaking
= Mid-cycle dip exited · 2026 peak confirmed
Three independent signals from three theorists — same endpoint.
Jeremy Grantham
AI Bubble Warning
= Feb/Mar 2026 · Conviction unchanged
Great innovations → great bubbles. AI deflation = profit plunge + valuation decline.
Action: All three land cycle theorists in unison on 2026 peak. No new Australian or US real estate positions. Watch Harrison's 'food vs mortgage' indicator — residential mortgage default spike = cycle confirmation.
03

AI Robotics

ACCELERATING Weekly editorial · Updated 20 Mar 2026
Tesla Optimus
Gen 3 Hands Live
▲ 50 actuators/hand · Factory testing Fremont & Austin
V3 production summer 2026. External sales late 2026. 'Digital Optimus' (Tesla×xAI) announced Mar 11.
Figure AI
$39B Valuation

Energy & Materials

CAUTION Weekly editorial · Updated 20 Mar 2026
NextEra Energy (NEE)
3 GW Nuclear Deal
▲ Duane Arnold restart w/ Google (25yr PPA) · 20 GW DC pipeline
Half of 20 GW data centre pipeline in advanced discussions. Online 2028+.
Bloom Energy (BE)
~$158–159 (+80% YTD)
▲ $5B Brookfield deal · $6B backlog (+140% YoY)
Revenue guidance $3.1–3.3B. Q4 revenue $777M (+36% YoY). Stretched — hold, don't add.
Lithium
Recovery Phase
▲ Down 80% from peak · Demand +30% 2024 · 16% growth fcst 2026
Supply adequate near-term; deficits expected medium-term. Accumulate on dips.
Copper
30% Shortfall Ahead
▲ Declining ore grades + extended dev timelines
Structural multi-decade deficit. Long copper = long electrification.
Rare Earths
86% China-Controlled
= Top 3 regions control 86% refining (up from 82% in 2020)
AU–US framework directly targeting this. Strategic not financial play near-term.
Action: Oil $119+ is the macro wildcard — complicates Fed pivot and crypto/equities. Hold NEE and BE (structural demand locked in). Lithium/copper: accumulate on any macro selloff, not now. Rare earths: watch NRF government plays.

Australia

CAUTION Weekly editorial · Updated 20 Mar 2026
Sydney (Houses)
$1,607,046
= Flat MoM · -0.1% qtr · +31% 5yr
Cycle peak forming. RBA hiking into stagnant prices = squeeze.
Melbourne (Houses)
$977,579
▼ ▼ Slipping · -0.4% qtr · +11.8% 5yr
Underperformer for 3 years. Affordability better but demand weak.
Brisbane (Houses)
$1,175,981
▲ +1.6% MoM · +86% 5yr · Still running
Strongest major capital. But cycle peak approaching — window closing.
RBA Cash Rate
4.10% (+25 bps)
▲ Split vote 5-4 · May hike to 4.35% likely
CPI 3.8%. Housing +6.8%, electricity +32.2% (rebates exhausted).
AU–US Critical Minerals
$8.5B Pipeline
▲ Bilateral framework signed · $1B each committed
Rare earths + critical minerals. Biggest bilateral deal in sector.
National Reconstruction Fund
$15B Fund · $1B Minerals
= Equity stake in Liontown (lithium) Aug 2025
Deployment still slow. Watch for further equity investments Q2 2026.
Action: Sydney/Melbourne at/near cycle peak with RBA still hiking — worst combo for leveraged property. Brisbane/Adelaide/Perth still have momentum but window closing. Critical minerals bilateral deals are a multi-year tailwind.
