The manager draws parallels between today's AI environment and the 2014-15 oil collapse, noting that AI infrastructure is profoundly energy-intensive and faces physical constraints including rising electricity prices and grid capacity challenges. Energy plays a critical role in AI infrastructure economics, with data centers becoming major electricity consumers. Rising power costs compress margins while grid constraints and regulatory scrutiny influence deployment timelines. The manager emphasizes that unlike software-driven growth, AI compute cannot be scaled independently of physical energy reality. Many AI-exposed companies trade at multiples assuming near-flawless execution, creating valuation risk despite current profitability. The manager notes that when confidence is high, markets forgive delays and cost overruns, but when confidence wanes, these factors can catalyze abrupt repricing. Late-cycle environments show conviction persisting even as marginal buyers grow cautious. | TREX TKR DY EXTR LOB OSK GNRC CXT APG DAR |
