RUSSELL 2000 - More Overvalued than During 2000? - #ValueCyclesThat's right, more overvalued than during year 2k and the subsequent tech wreck that ensued.
How?
Simple, measure the RUT against something that is not transient, i.e. in this case silver.
Frustrated with the back and forth of the market during late 2018-2019?
Not if you were measuring assets correctly, for those with the forethought to do so, they are sitting on a healthy 30%+ gain since August, with plenty of upside remaining.
Buy and Hold is dead, get smart or go broke.

SP-500/ Gold - How to Buy Shares 90% Off - ValueCyclesSP-500/ Gold - #ValueCycle Analysis
*Note that the vertical price axis reflects the number of ounces of gold required to purchase 1 share of the SP-500
*I understand there is a lot going on with this chart, but bear with me as i walk you through it (see worked example below)
Macro Analysis: Lower Chart
- After the lunacy of the tech wreck in the late 90's into 2000 the ratio peaked at just shy of 5.5 oz to 1 share of the SP-500 (obviously this would be more pronounced if we were looking at the Nasdaq)
- From the peak in 2000, the value of the SP-500 has plummeted largely unabated until 2009 - 2011, finally hitting a low of around 0.5 oz at the time of the financial crisis and the introduction of Central banking QE,
- This means that had you utilized this pricing/ entry method you would have been able to sell your shares at 5.5 oz and buy them back for a 1/10 of the price (illustrated with the red arrow)
- This eventual bottom also coincided with the 90% bubble fib retracement level (a useful level, few people utilize)
'Near-term Analysis: Upper Chart
- As you can see the SP-500 has stalled at the 38.2% fib retracement (possibly a dead cat bounce on the way lower)
- This, coupled with the broader macro economic outlooks (weaker economic data, weaker manufacturing and greater Geo-political tensions) makes a strong case for this to result in higher gold prices (thus a lower ratio of stocks to gold)
- I think it quite likely that the Fed will have their hand forced and will resume QE or some other form of stimulus to prop these markets up, but the beauty of this system is that you are pricing the assets in a more stable, non-inflationary numeraire, one that under such QE/ central bank intervention would thrive (thus revealing the true depreciation in value of the underlying)
Putting it all together: An example
- E.g. Sell your 10 Shares of SPX at 5.5 oz (red arrow) = 55 oz ($250/ oz) = $13,750
- Re-enter stocks at the green arrow for 0.5 oz/ share = 110 share of SPX (55/ 0.5) = $104,500 (55 oz times $1900/ oz)
- Convert your shares back to gold (2nd red arrow) at 2 oz / share = 110 shares times 2 oz/ share =220 oz = 220 oz times $1520/ oz = $334,400
Total return = 2432%
But more importantly, you have been able to leverage your existing holdings to acquire a non-depreciating asset, in this case gold (but there are many, many different options available to those who can properly utilize this strategy).

I Shouldn't Be Showing You This - Silver/ Crypto Pricing Model $1,000 to $21,000
or
61 oz of silver to over 1200 oz of silver
Yes... you read that right...
I was genuinely unsure about whether or not to bring this information to more people's attention, many people are unaware of the power of this very simple model and mindset switch.
Simply put, if you price everything in dollars, you will end up with more or less dollars...simple
The issue with this approach is that you are going to have a hard time finding true VALUE in an asset that is priced in a highly inflationary numeraire (benchmark).
What happens if you price assets in other assets...in other words...what happens if you price assets in how much stuff a given asset can buy of another asset?
Well, you can get a clear indicator of what asset is...or is not in favour at any given point in time.
Upon this realisation I began experimenting and stumbled upon this little beauty you see above.
Pricing crypto... not in fiat... but in the ultimate numeraire... Precious Metals.
From the outline above you can see how powerful this strategy's potential is, housing, stocks, bonds and yes even crypto can be priced in Precious Metals to give you a true understanding of where these assets value really is...
I was hesitant to share this idea with the community, but i am a strong believer in creating a community of educated traders and investors...not gamblers.
If, like me, you wish to understand VALUE and not just chase momentum on the next big thing, feel free to follow and let's go on a journey together.
