If you have no actual life like me and really enjoy the macro you will easily trump those you credit as “smart”. But I love you wading in with me.

You hear the news cycle du jour - data centers are a huge burden to local grids and consumers end up financing the need for increased capacity for guys like Musk and Bezos.

The idea that data centers ought to be “closed fence” … that the power ought to be sourced “off grid” be it nuclear or natural gas is bubbling to the surface this week.

Dedicated nukes for data centers will be a thing. Willie Nelson knows

In general terms the abandonment of nuclear years ago is now a source of consternation by countries like Germany.

Treat yourself to some Doomberg interviews. I’m willing to share him with only close friends.

Oh, Elon Tusk is god.

I am trying to figure out if I am the best stock picker on PFA or is it just that 1 out of every 10 stocks has a up 25% day once the CEO comes out and says "AI" or "Quantum Computing" or "Rare Earth" or "electricity".


Nope - clearly the later.
