SoftBank sold $5 billion worth of Nvidia overnight.
Brandon Chapman spent this morning explaining why that matters more than you think. These aren't retail traders panic selling. SoftBank historically hangs on through massive drawdowns. They took huge losses on WeWork. They rode positions to zero.
When they exit, they're making a statement about what's coming.
In today's free session replay, you'll discover:
- Why the market can't sustain rallies when only 7 stocks drive all the gains. Brandon showed the breadth data. At fresh S&P highs, only 34% of stocks trade above their 20-day moving average. Half the index sits below its 200-day. The entire market is funding Nvidia's trillion-dollar surge since July.
- The financing game that's about to unwind. Nvidia became Carvana for AI processors. They're guaranteeing buybacks on unsold equipment. Chat GPT drives all the AI growth but has zero money to actually pay for infrastructure. None of these deals generate real cash flow. They're just moving credits around and booking them as revenue.
- Why gold should outperform through year-end even if the S&P grinds higher. Someone bought 114,000 call spreads in GLD yesterday. The 390/405 spread for December expiration. Brandon's watching 405 as the target. Gold loves stagflationary environments with weak dollars. We're heading into spending bills and debt ceiling fights while economic conditions deteriorate.
- The valuation reality showing 30% growth estimates don't justify current prices. Brandon pulled up the EV/EBITDA framework. Anything under 10 qualifies as value territory. Nvidia sits at 56x trailing earnings. Forward PE still at 30x even accounting for next year's growth. The peg ratio assumes 32% growth for five years. SoftBank isn't buying it.
Brandon explained something critical about how markets actually work. We're not in de-globalization. Trump's trying to re-center trade westward and away from China. The tariff debate misses the point.
The real issue is we consume more than we produce. We borrow from the world to buy their goods. They don't buy our goods back. They buy real estate and bonds instead.
That game only works when the dollar stays strong as the reserve currency. But reserve currency status depends on being the world's biggest debtor. Trump wants to fix the trade imbalance. That directly threatens the dollar's position.
The S&P hasn't generated positive real returns in 30 years when measured against gold. We've had two major recessions, a financial crisis, and a pandemic. Diversification didn't protect portfolios. 60/40 allocations still saw 50%+ drawdowns.
Production drives real wealth. Debt drives nominal price increases that inflation destroys.
Brandon's message is clear. Stop buying garbage companies just because they're in an index. The equal-weighted S&P trades at 2020 levels in real terms. The cap-weighted version makes new highs only because seven names get all the money.
That's not a healthy bull market. That's late-stage concentration before something breaks.
