Summary

Jordi Visser joins Anthony Pompliano to discuss Bitcoin in a deflationary, AI-driven world. Visser argues that abundance is a short theme and scarcity a long theme, favoring Bitcoin, small caps, scarce commodities, energy, humanoid robotics, and Tesla while shorting Mag 7 and software. They also touch on Fed policy noise, GDP, and the accelerating pace of AI.

  • Jordi Visser believes AI-driven deflation will make scarcity assets outperform abundance assets.
  • He is long Bitcoin, expecting it to stay above $92k and have a big year.
  • He predicts small caps will outperform the S&P 500 by 3-4x in 2026.
  • He is short Mag 7 and software companies due to AI cannibalization.
  • He favors copper, silver, gold, and energy as scarce investments.
  • Humanoid robots and robo taxis are major long-term themes, with Tesla as a key player.
  • He dismisses the Powell investigation as market noise that doesn't change the economy or earnings.
  • He believes AI adoption is accelerating and investors should not dismiss it as a bubble.
Ideas

Bitcoin is scarce digital store of value.
Bitcoin is the scarce store of value for the digital and AI economy. In a world where AI drives deflation and abundance in code-based assets, money will rotate into scarcity. Bitcoin has been chosen by hundreds of millions, has no moat but belief, and is the only asset he trusts for long-term value. Technicals are improving, and he has been buying a lot, expecting it to stay above $92k and have a big year.

Small caps will massively outperform on rotation.
Small caps will be up 50-60% this year, outperforming the S&P 500 by 3-4x. A massive rotation of dollars out of the Mag 7 into smaller companies sensitive to commodities and PMIs is coming, and small caps have been a short base for a long time.
Jordi Visser Macro Strategist / ex-CIO, Weiss Multi-Strategy Advisers 14:28
Long scarce commodities: copper, silver, gold.
In an AI-driven world of abundance, invest in scarcity. Copper, silver, and gold are scarce physical assets that cannot be made abundant by flipping a switch. Money will rotate from fiat assets and abundant code-based assets into these commodities. Bitcoin is now related to them.
Jordi Visser Macro Strategist / ex-CIO, Weiss Multi-Strategy Advisers 14:38
Short Mag 7 and software on AI.
Abundance is dangerous for code-based companies. AI is cannibalizing the Mag 7 and software companies, eroding moats and causing deflation. 2026 will be the year abundance becomes an investable short theme, with these companies underperforming.

Energy is essential scarce asset, long it.
Energy is the one thing humanity will always need because all innovation is predicated on it. Elon Musk said energy is the currency of the future, and Jordi agrees it is part of the scarcity theme.

Real estate prices will fall on robots.
The cost of real estate must come down over the next decade because humanoid robots will make construction cheaper. Real estate is a long-term investment, and if rebuilding costs fall, prices will follow.
Jordi Visser Macro Strategist / ex-CIO, Weiss Multi-Strategy Advisers 23:27
Ethereum/BTC chart is bullish signal.
Ethereum relative to Bitcoin made its lows in July and is showing a beautiful chart. This is an important signal for network effects and PMIs, suggesting ETH will outperform BTC.

US market goes higher on high margins.
The stock market will go higher because profit margins will remain high. GDP is an outdated measure; efficiency gains from AI and software mean the economy is stronger than GDP suggests. AI adoption will keep margins elevated even as job creation stays weak.
Jordi Visser Macro Strategist / ex-CIO, Weiss Multi-Strategy Advisers 37:31
Humanoid robots are coming, invest in theme.
Humanoids will be a major part of our lives within a decade, affecting labor, real estate, security, and more. Investors must incorporate this into their stock market decisions. The technology is advancing faster than people think, and this is a huge long-term theme.
Jordi Visser Macro Strategist / ex-CIO, Weiss Multi-Strategy Advisers 38:34
Robo taxis/trucks are first humanoid wave.
Robo taxis are humanoids on wheels, the first entry into the humanoid theme. Elon Musk is building out robo trucks and autonomous vehicles at scale. This is happening and will disrupt transport.
Jordi Visser Macro Strategist / ex-CIO, Weiss Multi-Strategy Advisers 38:56
Tesla will lead humanoid/robotaxi revolution.
Tesla is leading the humanoid and robo taxi revolution. He is impressed by the Gigafactory vertical integration and believes if Tesla is the best-performing big stock over $1 trillion this year, it will signal that humanoids are here. This implies a bullish stance on Tesla.
Jordi Visser Macro Strategist / ex-CIO, Weiss Multi-Strategy Advisers 46:16
AI adoption is accelerating, invest in theme.
AI adoption is accelerating and cannot be slowed down. People are behind on how fast it's moving. AI is a powerful tool that gets more powerful every day, and investors should not dismiss it as a bubble.
