$SPY This is not "bear porn". This is exactly the Tyler Jenkins 'Hyperwave' template. And that’s why it’s so unsettling. Even late-cycle RSI breakout is dangerous, happens after a parabolic price phase. RSI breaks out, but immediately rolls over. Each push higher has less

RSI (monthly) at 43 confirms loss of strength. This is bear market RSI behavior, not bullish consolidation. Base case for $DXY: Breakdown from the rising wedge. Slow bleed, then sharp unwind. Targets over time: 92, 88, mid-80s.

Bear flag on the $VIX. Makes sense VIX resolves lower first. Then spikes later when positioning is max complacent. So timing-wise, a final VIX flush fits very well.

The AI infra trade is splitting into: Phase 1 (Now ending): Earth-bound GPU landlords. Fueled by cheap capital. Hit by refinancing fear. Phase 2 (Ongoing): Hyperscaler digestion. Slower, steadier, lower multiple. Phase 3 (Just starting): Non-terrestrial compute.

Stocks ran ahead of credit. Credit pulled them back to reality. This is not company-specific risk. This is business-model risk. Market priced AI infra as growth. Credit priced it as a balance sheet stress test. Now, here's the harsh truth - Neoclouds exist only because

Note: AI Neoclouds ( $CRWV, $NBIS, $IREN) live in credit markets. Expansion = more debt. Debt reprices every cycle. When rates spike, equity collapses. This is exactly what we've been seeing recently.

Once an idea moves from impossible → plausible, capital, narrative and optionality do the rest.

Markets price optionality before certainty. This is the same stage cloud, EVs and GPUs once occupied.

If orbital compute does not beat Earth on cost, it must win on something else.. That “something else” is deployability under constraint: No grid interconnects. No permitting timelines. No water consumption. No voters or ratepayers. No geopolitical choke points.

AI electricity demand is rising faster than grid expansion. Data centers are politically contentious (rates, water, land). Nuclear and transmission are decade-scale solutions. Hyperscalers seek unconstrained, sovereign, non-voter-exposed capacity. Orbital compute becomes a

When AI leaves Earth.
Elon Musk in new interview on building AI datacenters in space: "Space is overwhelmingly what matters; If you want to have something that is 1 million times more energy than Earth could possibly produce, you must go into space. That is where it's handy to have a space company."

Political backlash for terrestrial data centers gathering steam. Ignore it at your peril.
I will be pushing for a moratorium on the construction of data centers that are powering the unregulated sprint to develop & deploy AI. The moratorium will give democracy a chance to catch up, and ensure that the benefits of technology work for all of us, not just the 1%.
