The US Debt just hit $38.3 Trillion, the Shiller CAPE Ratio is at 40.01, and the "Shadow Vacancy" in commercial real estate has hit 50%. We are no longer in a Bull Market; we are in a mathematical anomaly known as a "Super-Bubble."Most investors believe we are seeing a "Soft Landing." They are looking at the price, not the value. In this documentary, we dismantle the "Everything Bubble" myth and expose the specific mechanical triggers that will force the Great Deleveraging of 2026.This is not just about a stock market crash. It is about the convergence of three historical cycles:The Valuation Cycle: Stocks are trading at double the historical average.The Debt Cycle: Sovereign debt has reached the mathematical limit of serviceability ($1.2T/year in interest).The Real Estate Cycle: The "Zombie Tenant" phenomenon is hiding a solvency crisis in the US banking system.Crashes do not destroy wealth; they transfer it.

In 2022, the US deployed the "Financial Nuclear Option" against Russia, freezing $300B and cutting off SWIFT. They thought it would end the war. Instead, it broke the global financial system. There is a mechanism hidden inside the global economy. It doesn’t move randomly; it moves with mechanical precision. On February 26th, 2022, the United States weaponized this mechanism (SWIFT) to isolate Russia.This documentary reveals the "5-Stage Backfire Pattern" that has destroyed every dominant currency in the last 110 years—from the British Pound in 1914 to the US Dollar today.Most people think the dollar is dying because of inflation.

The conditions for the Great Deleveraging are set. 1929. 2008. And now, 2026. Here is the mathematical roadmap of what comes next. There is a mechanism hidden inside the global economy. It doesn’t move randomly; it moves with mechanical precision. Ray Dalio calls it the "Long-Term Debt Cycle." We are now 80 years into this cycle, and the data suggests we have reached the mathematical limit of debt at the exact same moment the geopolitical order is breaking down.This documentary analyzes the 5 Stages of the coming 2026 Crash, the "Technology Trap" of the AI Bubble, and the inevitable shift to Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs).
