Buffett’s Warning Signs, Real Estate Strength & Freedom Through Strategy

These are not ordinary markets.
These are the moments that define great investors — not by what they buy, but by what they understand.

At United Legacy, our mission is simple:
To bring clarity where there’s confusion.
Access where there’s limitation.
And strategy where there’s noise.

Whether you’re a Private Client or an Insider attending our live events, this month’s briefing is designed to give you the strategic edge most investors simply don’t have.

1. Market Outlook: Volatility Is the New Normal

Let’s talk facts — not forecasts.

Stock Market
The S&P remains elevated, but under the surface, the story is fractured. Mega-cap AI and tech names are propping up the indexes while most sectors tread water or pull back. The Fed’s cautious stance on rate cuts has created hesitation and volatility.

Interest Rates
We anticipate the first meaningful rate cuts in 2026 — but not before more turbulence. The “pause before the pivot” phase means capital costs remain high, leverage is cautious, and the best opportunities are going to those who prepare now.

Crypto & Alternatives
Bitcoin is trading near $108,000, riding another institutional wave. But it remains speculative and volatile. For us, it’s a satellite position, not a foundation. Legacy investors build stability first, and speculation later.

2. The Buffett Indicator: A Simple Warning Signal

The Buffett Indicator — Warren Buffett’s preferred measure of market valuation — compares the total value of all publicly traded U.S. companies to the size of the U.S. economy.

Buffett Indicator = Total Market Cap ÷ GDP

Historically, a reading above 100% signals overvaluation.
Today, that number sits near 215%, one of the highest levels ever recorded.

That means the stock market’s total value is more than twice the size of the U.S. economy itself.

Translation: Investors are paying record prices for future returns that are mathematically limited.
This doesn’t predict a crash, but it’s a flashing yellow light — a signal that this is a time for strategy, not speculation.

3. Real Estate & Private Debt: Strategy Over Speculation

When equities overheat, real assets become the negotiation table where the smart money sits.

San Diego | Coastal Multifamily
Persistent supply constraints and population growth sustain NOI even with higher borrowing costs.
1031 exchange opportunities remain strong as fewer buyers overpay, leaving room for disciplined investors to act.

Hawaiʻi | Tangible Value Meets Timing
Some condo sectors are cooling, but multifamily assets in prime locations with stable tenancy remain strong.
Rate stability or modest easing could unlock a wave of deals before year-end.

United Legacy’s Debt Fund is structured for this exact environment:
Predictable income.
Credit protection.
Shorter duration.
Real collateral.

This is how insiders build leverage when the rest of the market is chasing momentum.
