I went all in on uranium in 2017. By 2020 I was down 50%. I held through it and exited in 2022 with my entire investment portfolio up about 1,000% (Boss Energy +1,452%). That let me quit my job and invest full time. Now I share my highest conviction deep value ideas ↓

It turns out that in Spain you are upper class if you make €30,400 or more per year That is around $34,000 or more per year For context: Mississippi consistently records the lowest median household income of any U.S. state, around $59,346 per year

Hyperscalers have issued roughly $570B in debt this year while free cash flow is compressed Creditors are getting nervous. If capital markets tighten, the pace of new builds slows and semiconductor demand takes a hit

Data centers still need power, copper and reliable baseload over a multi year horizon. Software does not solve any of that The physical part of it is where I prefer to spend my time: Commodities and shipping

We've got another production downgrade for a major copper mine, plus soaring costs. ⚠️

JUST IN: ITALY EXIT TAX 🇮🇹 Italy proposes a 26% exit tax on unrealized investment gains for people leaving the country from 2027. It’d apply to those with €800k+ in relevant assets who were tax residents for at least 6 of the last 10 years. I've been warning you: European countries are bankrupt and will try to seize your assets. The exit is closing.

In August I rotated back out of miners, after a rebound, into energy stocks. Now I’m rotating out of energy into miners. Gold and copper in particular. I think gold defended these levels before and it will again. The setup into 2027 is perfect. Copper is trading near all-time highs and Chinese premiums are surging. Yet the equities are a bargain. Why? Because of an AI growth scare that never mattered anyways. Copper is a supply story. When everyone panic sells I buy. This is the way.

The Copper Squeeze is here Copper is "sold out everywhere." China's Yangshan premium just hit a record $200+/ton. Buyers are scrambling for metal with LME prices near all-time highs. Inventories thin. Smelters cutting output. Demand not budging. #Copper

These are the computers the Spanish government uses to run it's train system
Today, a TRAGIC TRAIN CRASH in Urda, Spain has left 64 PEOPLE DEAD. THIS IS THE SECOND TRAGIC TRAIN CRASH IN SPAIN THIS YEAR. Just more confirmation of Hanke's School Boy Theory of History: It's just one damn thing after another.

$XP perhaps a 76.5% annualized return was not sustainable or even real?
Returns of the Gladius fund managed by $XP Either these guys are the new Warren Buffett or they are faking the returns I bet on the latter, that’s why I am short $XP All credit to @ResearchGrizzly
