Michael Burry warns that U.S. households now hold more wealth in stocks than in real estate — a rare historical pattern last seen before prolonged bear markets in the late 1960s and late 1990s. Data from Wells Fargo and Bloomberg suggest this imbalance could signal an extended market downturn ahead. Burry attributes the surge to years of ultra-low interest rates, stimulus-driven liquidity, inflation pressures, AI speculation, and the rise of gamified trading. He also cautions that the dominance of passive investing could amplify losses if markets reverse. $BTC
