RT @HiddenValueGems: The change in power mix in favour of renewables is driving electricity prices much higher in the US even as demand has been almost flat for the last 15 years. But with the rise of data centres, additional demand could send prices much further.

The biggest beneficiaries seem to be Independent power plants, some of which were previously bankrupt like $VST or $TLN

“PJM Interconnection — an administrator of the US regional grid stretching from the mid-Atlantic to the Midwest — held an auction for supplemental electricity to be delivered in 2025 and 2026. The clearing price was $270 per megawatt-day, nearly 10 times the level set at the last auction two years ago.”

“Talen said its winning commitments in the auction would raise its annual revenue by $670mn, or 40 per cent, with most of that falling to the bottom line as windfall profit.”

I am aware that "pessimists sound smart and optimists make money". But it still helps to consider all the arguments. Grantham mentioned Hussman's reports. Their latest piece puts current earnings expectations into a historical context, which is quite interesting.

RT @HiddenValueGems: At the beginning of 2023, the market estimate for aggregate 2025 “Hyperscaler” Capex was just $154bn. This estimate has increased by 51% to $232bn by now.

At the same time, “revenue revisions for 2025 for these four companies have increased by just 4% (and have actually fallen by 9%
since the start of 2022), meaning that their aggregate capex/sales ratio has increased from 10% in 2023 to an estimated 15% in 2025.”

h/t @Argonautcapital

$MSFT has seen the largest increase in Capex/Sales ratio in the past 10 years (now at 18% compared to 3% in 2014).

$AAPL Capex/Sales has actually declined over the same period (from 3% to 2%). https://t.co/83npeBxqn6

RT @HiddenValueGems: Fairly basic, but still a good reminder of the 5 typical mistakes investors make during increased volatility:

1️⃣ “They panic-sell: someone who stayed invested from 1980 until the end of March 2024 would have a 12% annual return, whereas someone who started at the same time, but sold after downturns and stayed out of the market until two consecutive years of positive returns, would have averaged a 10% return annually.”
