Samsung, SK hynix win from AI memory shortage

South Korea is backing Samsung and SK hynix with an $800 billion investment plan to expand memory capacity. This government support ensures capacity expansion even if market dynamics change, similar to how TSMC benefited from Taiwan's backing. Memory demand is outstripping supply for data centers and AI, and new capacity won't come online before late 2027 or 2028, keeping conditions tight and benefiting incumbents.

Oil underpriced due to supply shock, low inventory

Markets are underestimating the supply shock from the Iran conflict. Inventories have been drawn down substantially to insulate consumers, leaving less cushion. Even if tensions ease, every piece of bad news will have a bigger downside impact on prices. Oil is not pricing in the real physical tightness, creating upside risk.

Copper demand rises on electrification after Iran war

The Iran conflict reinforces energy security concerns, accelerating electrification globally. Copper is the most important raw material for electrification, from grids to data centers, and demand is being further boosted by China's EV and battery push. Copper benefits more than oil and gas from this structural shift.
