Flight to Safety from Peak Prosperity on Vimeo

Little did I realize when creating the short video above how prescient it would quickly become in the wake of last night's Brexit vote.

Its message is simple: there's a preponderance of data that shows the world's major asset markets are dangerously overvalued. And when these asset bubbles start to burst, the 'save haven' markets that investment capital will try to flee to are ridiculously small.

The US dollar surged:

Gold put in a $100/oz reversal (which has since moderated a bit):

And Bitcoin jumped:
