"Alpine Capital is pivoting away from commoditised software and toward the physical power infrastructure and industrial metals (copper, silver) required to fuel the $85T global AI Factory buildout."
Executive Summary
In their Q4 2025 report, Alpine Capital outlines a tactical shift from software to the physical assets driving 'AI 2.0'. While the 'everything rally' of 2025 saw positive performance across all major asset classes, the firm warns that software is undergoing commoditisation due to AI coding capabilities, threatening SaaS moats. Instead, they see a multi-decade opportunity in the physical infrastructure bottleneck required to build out the $85 trillion global AI Factory network, specifically focusing on copper, silver, electricity generation, and thermal cooling. On the macro front, they remain highly optimistic about the US market in 2026, predicting 15% S&P 500 earnings growth, strong GDP (4%-6%), and a dovish Federal Reserve transition, while remaining structurally cautious on Emerging Markets.
