The stock market continues to exude strength, with the S&P 500 climbing for six consecutive weeks and closing 10 of the last 11 months in positive territory. Over the past decade, it has generated a 13% annualized return, and its 30-year performance reflects a staggering 1,177% total return, despite periodic recessions and market crashes.
However, analysts at Goldman Sachs caution that this streak of prosperity may not last much longer, Inc.com reported.
Goldman Sachs projects a more modest future, predicting the S&P 500 will deliver just a 3% nominal annualized return over the next decade. According to the bank’s October 18 report, the current valuations and heavy market concentration — with the 10 largest companies accounting for over a third of the S&P 500’s value — suggest an unsustainable market landscape. This level of concentration is among the highest in nearly a century, fueling concerns about a possible downturn.
While long-term stock trends generally paint an optimistic picture of market growth, the use of the CAPE (cyclically adjusted price-to-earnings) ratio — developed by Nobel-winning economist Robert Shiller — offers a more cautionary perspective. The CAPE ratio indicates that the S&P 500’s current valuation is higher than it was before both the 1929 market crash and the dot-com bubble burst, hinting at the risk of a market correction or extended period of lackluster returns.
A major factor behind the soaring valuations can be attributed to the recent surge in AI investment and hype, especially following OpenAI’s release of ChatGPT in 2022. Companies like Nvidia have led this trend, pushing stocks to higher levels. However, some analysts warn that this enthusiasm could soon cross into “irrational exuberance,” raising the possibility of a market bubble. […]

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
Visit Prepper All-Naturals and use promo code “veterans25” to get 25% off plus free shipping on Ribeye, NY Strip, Tenderloin, and other high-quality cuts of beef. It’s cooked sous vide, then freeze dried and packaged with no other ingredients, just beef. Stock up for the long haul today.
