Thoughtful Money with Adam Taggart

After two 20%+ years of returns for the S&P in 2023 and 2024, 2025 looks like it will close with another big double digit performance.Three back to back to back years of performance like this is somewhat rare in markets.What's the likelihood the streak will continue in 2026?Or is performance more likely to mean-revert?To discuss, we're fortunate to speak today with market veteran Kevin Muir, founder and editor of The Macro Tourist, the highly-acclaimed newsletter that currently ranks as one of the top financial Substacks in the world. Kevin is extremely concerned about the bubble-conditions of the stock market and is confident shares of the Mag 7 companies will -- as they have before -- experience another 33-50% price correction.#nvidia #aibubble #marketcorrection WORRIED ABOUT THE MARKET?

While much of Wall Street's focus over past recent years has been on the AI hyperscalers, there are an increasing number of seismic developments happening internationally investors need to be aware of.For example, as a basket, emerging market stocks have outperformed the S&P 500 this year.And to name just a few others:1) Japanese bond yields have surged to the highest levels in 20 years, threatening to put an end to the carry trade2) A US-driven regime change in Venezuela looks imminent3) China continues to fire its monetary and fiscal bazookas with gusto in attempt to pull itself out of its deep balance sheet recession4) And in the wake of negotiating a tenuous peace between Isreal and Palestine, renewed efforts are underway to bring an end to the Russia/Ukraine warWhich international trends are the most important for investors to track? What are the biggest risks? And where are the biggest opportunities?To better understand the situation from a non-US perspective, we're fortunate to welcome back to the program Louis Gave, Founding Partner and CEO at Gavekal.WORRIED ABOUT THE MARKET?

Short of a dramatic surprise in the next few weeks, the markets should end 2025 with another big double-digit positive return, for third year in a row.A string of three-peats like this is quite rare in markets. Which raises the question: Can the momentum last in 2026?Or will the market's returns start to mean revert.To discuss, we have the good fortune of welcoming back to the program high net worth financial advisor Ted Oakley, Managing Partner and Founder of Oxbow Advisors.Ted thinks stocks are as expensive as he's ever seen them in his long career. And while he admits no one knows when the market top will be in, he's pretty confident we're in the 8th or 9th inning of the bull market at this stage.WORRIED ABOUT THE MARKET?

There are some big capital rotations underway right now in the stock market.In the AI trade, we're seeing capital start to flow from the biggest player, Nvidia, into Google.

But it's starting to look that way.And we're also seeing capital move from the AI hyperscalers into other sectors -- like biotech and pharma -- whose stocks had been trading at much lower valuations.Is Wall Street staring to develop an interest in value stocks after feasting for years at the growth table?In this special Thanksgiving edition of their monthly macro and market review, the team at New Harbor Financial and I discuss these key questions.WORRIED ABOUT THE MARKET?
