[27:04] my view through this year, I mean rightly or wrongly, uh we're halfway through is that what you'd see from Wall Street in 2026 would broadly speaking be a range-bound market. There'd be volatility, uh but it would really go sideways because the authorities wouldn't be tightening that aggressively. Uh and I think that's still the case. But, I think as we roll the clock on, uh the odds are that liquidity conditions are going to tighten more and more and more. Uh and that that projection uh becomes, you know, maybe challenged by year end or into '27.

The prediction claimed S&P 500 would not reach 7,630 by end of June 2026 and is entering a downtrend. The period high was only 7,577.92, which did not reach 7,630, so that specific price target claim is correct. However, the market actually rose 3.2% from the prediction date to target date close, and the period shows an upward move rather than a downtrend, making the 'entering a downtrend' portion wrong. The overall bearish sentiment was wrong as prices rose.

The prediction claims a 'growth scare' would be evident in the S&P 500 by end of Q2 2026, which is a qualitative/vague claim rather than a specific percentage drop; the market only declined about 2.8% from the prediction date to the period low ($7445.72 to $7237.85) and ended up 0.7% higher by the target date, which is a modest dip that doesn't clearly constitute a 'growth scare,' but interpreting what qualifies as a 'growth scare' requires judgment.

Extracted by AI from a YouTube transcript. May be inaccurate or missing context. Verify via source. Send a correction.
The prediction claimed a 'major market top within weeks,' which is a bearish prediction expecting a significant peak followed by decline. The period high of $7002.28 on 2026-01-28 (6 trading days after prediction) represents a 3.0% gain from the prediction date price of $6796.86, followed by a decline to $6606.49 (-2.8%) by the target date. While the market did reach a peak and decline, the prediction was vague about the magnitude of the 'major top' and the subsequent move was relatively modest; however, the market did produce a top that declined notably, making the core claim of a market top occurring correct.

[5:01] That said, there is a huge bifurcation in our economy in the sense of the bottom 50% of people have been under the gun for probably four years as the cost of living ramped up. Their incomes haven't kept up um pace with that. uh the top 10% of wage earners represent almost 50% of spending and they're deriving their confidence from what's happening in the financial markets namely the stock market uh and so forth. So you have this split screen if you will where the top segment of the uh economy is doing really well. They're kind of carrying the water for the rest of the economy.
