The AI Bubble is Showing Serious Signs of Cracking

Stock valuations have almost never been higher.   - The Buffet Indicator is at 233, the highest ever recorded. Market cap to GDP has never been higher.   - The Schiller Adjusted Price to Earnings ratio is the second highest recorded in 145 years. At current valuations, it would take over 40 years to recover the investment through earnings.    - The Bank of America Bull and Bear Indicator is screaming sell again. The past 17 times stocks dropped 2-20% the following 2-3 months.   Companies that have scaled AI are experiencing usage costs that exceed the employees they fired.    - Microsoft invested $5 billion in Claude AI and recently banned their engineers using it due to exorbitant costs.    - Uber blew through their annual AI usage budget by April 2026.   Chinese AI has massively dropped AI usage costs.   - Chinese AI can process about 80% of American AI functions.   - Chinese is up to 95% cheaper than American AI.   - This destroys the American AI profit model.   Tech stock valuations are priced for perfection. This could be the beginning of the end of the AI bubble.   Index (growth) annuities provide:  Double digit potential annual returns on good market years. Grow your money safely, without market risk.
