SpaceX Mania and the Markets in June

This briefing analyzes current market movements, particularly the SpaceX IPO and the situation in the AI sector.

• Successful IPO: SpaceX went public on June 12. Elon Musk holds 82% of the shares, officially becoming the world's first billionaire.
• Market Cap: The company is valued at $2.2 trillion – more than Meta or Tesla. This is almost equivalent to the entire German DAX index.
• Stock Performance: The stock is trading about 20% above its issue price of $135. High volatility is expected in the coming weeks.
• Outlook: Inclusion in the Nasdaq 100 could happen in about a month. SpaceX will not be added to the S&P 500 for now, as it is still reporting losses.
• Investment Strategy: The analyst believes there will be cheaper entry points in the coming months. The concept of data centers in space is seen as particularly fascinating.

• The Bears warn: US inflation stands at 4.2% (May). Producer prices rose sharply by 6.5% year-over-year. The ECB raised its key interest rate for the first time since 2023 to 2.25%. Bears expect rising US interest rates and warn of the consequences of high oil prices and the end of the AI hype.
• The Bulls counter: Core inflation (excluding energy) remains stable. The overall inflation increase was expected and not a shock to the markets. The oil price has recently fallen, acting as a stimulus program. US consumer spending remains robust, as shown by retail sales data.

• Growth: The AI sector is growing rapidly. Expected capital expenditure (Capex) is forecast to grow by an average of 40% per year until 2030.
• Supply Chain: Companies like SK Hynix, Broadcom, and Sandisk are benefiting immensely. Sandisk is expected to earn over $65 per share – more than its stock price a year ago.
• Valuation: Nvidia's forward P/E ratio is 20, the lowest in years. The stock is lagging behind the overall market despite strong fundamentals.
• Conclusion: There is no evidence of an overvaluation or imminent collapse of the AI bubble. Demand continues to massively exceed supply.

1. Inflation: The peak of inflation may have already been reached.
2. Oil Price: The peak in oil prices was likely seen a few weeks ago.
3. Interest Rate Expectations: Contrary to many expectations, US interest rates will probably not rise this year.
4. Hedging: The high level of short positions indicates excessive fear, which is often a sign of a market bottom.

• Fujikura: The analyst bought more shares after a sharp decline. The CEO provides a conservative forecast, and demand from hyperscalers remains high.
• Gold: Its performance over the last three months has been historically poor. The analyst is holding off for now, viewing gold as a long-term investment.

Important Disclaimer: This is not investment advice, but merely the personal opinion of the analyst.

This video breaks down the real reasons behind the stalled Clarity Act for crypto regulation, focusing on a single unanswered document that has been sitting in the White House since July 30.

• The Core Conflict: A compromise proposal by Senators Tillis and Gálvez would ban federal officials (and their spouses) from issuing or sponsoring digital assets while in office, enforced by the Attorney General. The White House has not responded.
• The Stalemate: The bill needs 60 Senate votes but is blocked by exactly seven Democrats who demand stricter ethics rules – the very rules the President won't sign.
• The Conflict of Interest: A Senate Banking Committee minority report reveals the Trump family earned over $1.4 billion in crypto income in 2025 – about 23% of the President's reported income. The ethics clause would directly affect this revenue.
• Who's Not Blocking: Wall Street (BlackRock, Fidelity, Goldman Sachs) and community banks publicly support the bill, seeking only minor tweaks. Blaming Elizabeth Warren or the banking sector is a distraction.
• Market Impact: Bitcoin is flat, while Coinbase and Circle have lost value. Analysts see a

The investor presents three newly purchased stocks and mentions his research platform with a 21-day money-back guarantee.

• 40% of market cap in cash – the rest is practically free.

• 8% earnings growth over 10 years, P/E ratio of 10, dividend yield 6%.
• Potential total return of 14% per year.
• Likely takeover by private equity as an additional catalyst.

• Return on equity 20%, price-to-book ratio 1.2 – implies expected return in the high teens.

• Focus on less noticed small caps.

• Risk minimization is the priority (Warren Buffett's rule: avoid losses).
• Model portfolio with 15% return per year over 8 years.
• New book coming in September; platform price will increase, current price stays.

Summary follows...

This video analyzes the current state of the S&P 500, which hit new all-time highs in August 2026. The speaker compares the situation to previous midterm election years (2014, 2018, 2022) and identifies patterns suggesting a possible correction in late summer or autumn.

🔍 Historical Comparisons

• 2014: Correction started on September 19 with a decline of about 10%.
• 2018: Correction started on September 21 with a decline of about 20%.
• 2022: Correction started as early as August 16 (bear market) with a decline of about 20%.
• Current (2026): The S&P 500 is at all-time highs – similar to 2014 and 2018 at this time.

⏳ Potential Timing of the Correction

• The next Fed meeting on September 16 could be a turning point.
• A rate hike or persistently high bond yields (10-year at 4.6%, 30-year already above October 2023 levels) could trigger a correction.
• The speaker expects the correction to begin in September, but it could extend into October or December.

💡 Impact on Bitcoin

• Historically, Bitcoin's cycle bottom often coincided with the second stock market correction in the second half of the year (e.g., 2014, 2018, 2022).
• If the S&P 500 drops to 6,000, Bitcoin could lose support at $60,000.

🛠️ Speaker's Strategy

• He regularly buys low-cost index funds and does not try to time the market.
• He views corrections as buying opportunities, not sell signals.
• He advises monitoring the bond market and the Dollar Index (DXY).

📅 Conclusion

• New all-time highs often lead to further highs before a correction occurs.
• The most likely period for a correction is September 2026, based on historical patterns.
• The speaker remains optimistic for long-term investors but warns of short-term risks.

• Oracle CDS hits higher levels than the Global Financial Crisis – a warning for credit markets.
• The US steps in to support the Japanese Yen, highlighting fiat fragility.
• Crypto Fear & Greed drops to 25 (extreme fear), Ethereum bleeds, Bitcoin holds $64K despite geopolitical tensions.

• Three on-chain indicators (Satoshi Meter, Porcopolis Power Law, Omega Score) align to signal a deep accumulation zone („killbox“).
• The historical correlation with ISM PMI remains intact: PMI has exploded, and Bitcoin should follow within 60 days – otherwise the correlation is dead.
• US GDP forecast for Q3 2026: +6.2% (Atlanta Fed), driven by AI.

• Tech stocks recover massively: Microsoft +26%, Amazon +19%, Palantir +30% (the $106 dip highlighted as an ideal entry).
• AI capex from hyperscalers exceeds $1 trillion, flowing into Nvidia, AMD, Broadcom, etc.
• Tesla FSD: 70 million miles/day, life-saving; Optimus robot in development.
• SpaceX beats expectations (revenue +92%, profit), but „buy the rumor, sell the news“.

• Open-source models (DeepSeek V4) outperform closed source (Claude) with better quality at 98% lower cost.
• GPU costs continue to rise – demand is insatiable.

• Europe lags due to overregulation.
• AI could become an incorruptible source of truth, reshaping politics and society.
• Key takeaway: It's always darkest before the dawn – bullish on Bitcoin and AI.

Summary: Risk Researcher Warns: Why Shareholders Are Walking Blindly into Ruin + Germany's State Failure

In this interview, risk researcher Prof. Dr. Werner Gleisner analyzes the current risks for investors and companies. He warns of a dangerous risk blindness among many investors who focus only on cheap valuation metrics (like P/E ratio) without considering actual corporate risks. For Germany, he paints a bleak picture: competitiveness is declining, bureaucracy is paralyzing, and the state is failing to implement necessary reforms.

• The risk situation for German companies has worsened due to geopolitical power shifts and self-inflicted problems (e.g., low productivity, high energy costs).
• Germany is in a weak position because it has set wrong priorities for years (e.g., ESG goals over economic growth).
• The biggest crisis could be a chance for reforms, but political gridlock (firewalls, lack of majorities) prevents quick solutions.

• Many companies fail to meet legal requirements (StaRUG 2021): They must identify, quantify, and aggregate risks (Monte Carlo simulation).
• Without risk aggregation, companies miss combination effects – this is a ticking time bomb for bankruptcies.
• Auditors often do not check this; therefore, shareholders are blind to internal risks.

• Classic value investing (low P/E) is risk-blind: It confuses undervalued companies with high-risk cases.
• Modern strategy: first estimate the probability of bankruptcy (e.g., using equity ratio and return on total capital), then only select robust companies with a cheap valuation.
• Studies show: Profitability (high return on equity) is a stable success factor.

• AI can process huge amounts of data but is often used incorrectly for business questions (e.g., expected value vs. most likely value).
• Properly curated, AI helps with risk analysis and decision templates.
• Danger: AI amplifies human errors and does not replace decision-makers' responsibility.

• Within the next 10 years, 1–2 severe crises are likely (economic, financial, or geopolitical crisis).
• Investors should diversify globally, favor robust companies, and check for risk aggregation in annual reports.
• Germany needs three immediate measures: faster defense capability, restoration of competitiveness (reduce bureaucracy, foster innovation), and a comprehensive national risk analysis.
