Ideas

Oil prices elevated on supply risks
Geopolitical risks to oil supply are escalating with Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia and threats to the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, the critical workaround after Hormuz closure. Low global crude and product inventories, depleted SPRs, and reduced Russian diesel exports leave markets vulnerable to further price spikes, with Brent already around $100.

South Korea's AI infrastructure boom
South Korea's semiconductor and industrial businesses are booming, and the country is positioned to help the world build out AI infrastructure through its manufacturing capabilities, technology adoption, and partnerships like Nvidia's collaboration with SK Group on giga-watt scale data centers.
Chris Cocks CEO, Animoca Brands 60:36
Hasbro benefits from adult play trend
The trend of adult play and collectible building/display, like the new Hasbro Blooms line, is powering the entire play industry and is a lasting consumer shift that can drive growth for Hasbro.
Jensen Huang CEO, NVIDIA 89:44
Semiconductors will grow 10x for AI
The semiconductor industry will need to be 10 times larger over the next decade because computers are now being built for AI agents, robots, and data centers, not just people. Supply constraints across memory, power, land, and construction will throttle growth, making capacity expansion a multi-year opportunity.
Jensen Huang CEO, NVIDIA 91:14
SK Hynix benefits from Nvidia memory demand
Nvidia has large and growing purchase agreements and intentions with SK Hynix for HBM and LPDDR memories, needed for Vera Rubin systems and other AI supercomputers, ensuring multi-year demand and making SK Hynix a critical supply chain partner.
