Macro Assessment: MACRO CONTRACTION / CAPITAL STRESS: Risk asset deleveraging in progress. Total global wealth is trading below its 200-day moving average.
1. Consolidated Daily Global Wealth ($750T Capital Base) vs S&P 500
Since no central bank or supranational agency publishes daily consolidated global wealth, this quantitative index employs the institutional Anchor & Float methodology utilized by Bridgewater Associates and Visual Capitalist. Verified structural anchors ($393T Real Estate, $161T Fixed Income, $120T Equities, $108T Money Supply M2, $27T Gold, $2.7T Crypto) are indexed to daily cumulative returns of liquid market proxies.
Macro Deep-Dive: Why is Global Wealth at Level 3 while SPY Divergence is at Level 1?
A frequent question from quantitative analysts is how these two complementary models interact:
- Global Wealth Health Regime (Level 3 of 4 · Early Stress): Evaluates the aggregate $750 Trillion capital base. Because total global wealth has fallen below its 200-day moving average ($756.47T vs $762.8T) with only 1 of 5 asset classes (Physical Gold) in active expansion, the macro background is in defensive capital stress and broad liquidity contraction.
- Multi-Asset Divergence Radar (Level 1 of 4 · Macro Coherence / Harmonious): Evaluates whether the S&P 500 is surging in an irrational, isolated bubble while all other asset classes collapse (as occurred in late 2021 before the crash). Because the S&P 500 has consolidated in tandem with global liquidity, there is zero deceptive divergence (0/5 warning flags). Stocks are not trapped in a solitary top.
2. Multi-Asset Macro Divergence Radar (5 Key Pillars & Warning Flags)
By cross-examining speculative crypto liquidity (canary in the coal mine), sovereign gold accumulation (flight to quality), corporate/government debt trends, and the underlying real estate stack, the model computes a composite divergence score (0 to 5 flags). Historically, when 4 or more flags activate simultaneously (Level 4 Purple Regime), the S&P 500 averages a negative forward return (-1.77% over 60 days).
