The Wrong Bubble Pt.2

In part one, I argued the AI build-out looks more like 2008 than 2000. Here is why the hyperscalers keep spending anyway — and the moment that could unwind it.

Technology

AI for Dummies

After many requests, here’s Charlie’s stab at how these machines think, connect ideas and remember. Explained in plain English.

Selling the Signal

Trading firms can now pay the President’s company for millisecond access to the President’s posts. Most companies have to make a product. This one just makes news.

Canberra’s Cover Charge

Albanese wants every large AI data centre to fund its own power. If the rules pass, the energy buildout becomes compulsory. The open question is whether the capital stays.

Data-struction

Are datacentres next on the chopping block? The demand is real and already signed. The danger sits in the balance sheet, heres what headlines miss.

Musk Looks Up. China Looks Down

SpaceX wants a million AI satellites in orbit. China just switched on a wind-powered data centre under the sea. Both are chasing the same prize: cheap power and free cooling for the AI buildout.

Small Caps

Gold Accumulation Begins

The ASX clawed back from a two-week low on Tuesday as investors bought the dip in gold miners. That dip-buying could mark a floor for ASX resource companies.

The Wrong Bubble Pt.2

In part one, I argued the AI build-out looks more like 2008 than 2000. Here is why the hyperscalers keep spending anyway — and the moment that could unwind it.

The Wrong Bubble Pt.1

I have put the AI boom in the same breath as the dot-com bubble before. Looking at how this build-out is actually financed, that comparison now looks too generous.

Groundhog Day

Markets once again wake to the same headlines. Each turn of the loop starts from a weaker position than the last. Winners may be the ones who simply ignore it.

Macro

Worst. Budget. Ever

Worst. Budget. Ever. I really don’t know where to start with this one. It is so bad for this country that it’s hard to fathom. So let me start with the positives…

What people are saying about Fat Tail Daily

I enjoy reading articles from all editors. The way the guys present issues creates interest where there may not have been interest before . That is a huge accolade coming from someone like me. I genuinely appreciate the effort you all put in, and I have learnt a lot of valuable general knowledge as well also.

— K.M, QLD

I enjoy the researched, informative, and sometimes thought provoking articles from the editors. I’ve learnt how the world works with Jim, long term value investing with Greg, navigating volatile gold stocks with Brian, and technical analysis with Murray. I even hold some crypto Ryan. I am almost 60 and you can teach an old dog new tricks. Many thanks for all your efforts, all of the editors

— Joe S, Wollongong

I am delighted with Fat Tail Daily. You are the only publication I trust. I look forward to your emails. I have made wonderful investments following your advice, thank you.

— Janet Roach, VIC

I find the information very informative. It’s refreshing to me as you guys do not follow the trends. Each trader has a different view of the world and their particular areas of expertise. I like that you talk about bitcoin & Gold, where most other financial advisers won’t.

— R.K. NSW

I look forward to Fat Tail Daily hitting my inbox. My favourite contributors are Greg Canavan, Callum Newman, James Cooper and Murray Dawes. I enjoy the blend of company, sector, whole market and technical analysis that in combination they provide. Fat Tail Daily provides a refreshing alternative to the usual mainstream financial media and also serves as a good backdrop to the individual services that Fat Tail provides.

— George S, UK

I value the research, advice and the analysis by the respective authors. You don’t have to agree but I also like the balance of being able to read differing points of view not just on a particular investment topic but also life and values.

— Alexander, WA

Quality writers and research – clear, concise recommendations.

— DJ Whiting, WA

Very well informed and current. Many of the ideas are thought provoking. What I also like is the diverse range of opinions and independent thinking.

— Brian, NSW
