Yesterday was another rough session on Wall Street.
The major indexes closed sharply lower after Nvidia’s post-earnings pop
quickly faded and AI-overvaluation fears took over:
Overseas, SoftBank plunged 10%. Bitcoin dropped to $87,000.
Gold? Closed quietly higher at $4,092 an ounce — up 0.45% on the day.
The Buffett Indicator Is Still Screaming Caution
Warren Buffett’s favorite valuation gauge, the total U.S. stock market value divided by GDP, now stands at 213%.
That’s among the highest levels ever recorded and well into what Buffett once called “playing with fire” territory. When the ratio gets this stretched, even good news isn’t enough to hold the market up. Yesterday proved it again.
Many retirement accounts (401(k)s, IRAs, TSPs) are heavily tied to the stock market. When the major indexes drop like they did yesterday, those balances can take a painful hi, especially for anyone nearing or already in retirement.
Gold, on the other hand, doesn’t chase trends or earnings reports. It simply protects wealth when everything else gets volatile – exactly what it did yesterday.
Year-to-date: Gold +25%
Past 12 months: Gold +52%
Yesterday while stocks crashed: Gold +0.45%
