June 18: Drip. Drip. Flood.

In the autumn of 1814, London didn’t fall to war, plague, or fire.

It fell to beer.

Lots of it.

Meux & Company Brewery sat in the heart of St. Giles, a working-class district where people lived packed into basement flats.

Under the brewery’s floor sat a massive wooden vat—22 feet high, holding over 380,000 gallons of fermenting porter. All held together by iron hoops, rivets, and faith.

But that faith was misplaced.

On October 17, the vat ruptured. The pressure split open a second one. Then another. Within seconds, over two million pints of beer were rushing through the streets at the speed of a train.

Brick walls collapsed. Floors gave way. Entire houses were swept clean. Eight people drowned—some in their own homes, others while trying to save family members.

Imagine a tanker truck unloading 5 swimming pools of beer… directly into a crowded basement apartment building… with no warning. That’s what happened.

No fire. No bombs. No warning.

Just too much pressure in a system that couldn’t hold it.

That’s how market crashes happen. Not with a scream, but with a pop.

Too much leverage. Too much belief.

And then—one weak seam gives out. Liquidity vanishes. Collateral collapses. Confidence drowns.

The London Beer Flood is a forgotten tragedy. But it’s also a perfect metaphor for what our Paradigm colleague Mason Sexton is warning about.

If you’ve felt like time’s speeding up… like chaos is layering instead of ending… you’re not crazy. You’re just feeling the pressure.

And that pressure—the pressure that’s been quietly building—starts releasing this week.

Scandals, Shocks, and Cycles

For over 40 years, Mason has built one of the most accurate track records in market timing—without ever seeking the spotlight.

He predicted the 1987 crash—to the exact day. He told clients to short just 11 days before Black Monday. He nailed the bottom of the COVID crash—March 23, 2020. He called the 2022 market top when Wall Street was still euphoric.

And he warned of the 2023 banking crisis—to the day: March 7.

Featured in Time, The Economist, and CNN, Mason isn’t known for making noise.

He’s known for getting the timing right.

Mason deals in time-pressure geometry—a fancy way of saying he studies how cracks form in silence, then break all at once.

He calls his method The Map. And according to The Map, the years between 2024 and 2027 are not just volatile... they’re irreversible.

More than just a cycle shift—the end of an era.

Mason has long warned we’re moving into a world where:

  • Volatility spikes rapidly across assets
  • Political and social systems fracture
  • Scandals erupt and timelines accelerate

One of his early predictions: In 2025, we’ll see scandals, shocks, and cycles begin to overlap. Events that used to be spaced out—wars, indictments, market corrections, currency shifts—will start hitting at once.

Sound familiar?

Event Saturation Starts Now

In 2008, we lost trust in the banks. In 2020, we lost trust in the media. In 2025? We’re losing trust in the structure itself.

And it’s all leading up to what Mason calls “event saturation”—the point where pressure no longer bleeds off… it explodes.

“This is a very dangerous time for most investors,” Mason said recently. “They're totally unaware what's what's coming. But if you can time it and get the highs and lows right, it's a chance to make an amazing return on your investment.”

The Beer Flood didn’t begin with collapse.

It began with pressure that no one took seriously.

On June 18th at exactly 1:27pm, Mason has agreed to take part in a special interview where he’ll reveal exactly what he sees coming… the precise date he thinks it will set off… and what you can do to prepare.
