Subscribe Home Posts Rare Earths: The Cold War Commodities Supercycle Rare Earths: The Cold War Commodities Supercycle Oct 10, 2025 Wall Street’s 60/40 formula was born in 1952 — the same year as the first credit card. A lot has changed since. That’s why we created a new approach — The --- H.E.A.T. Formula — to empower investors to spot opportunities, think independently, make smarter (often contrarian) moves, and build real wealth.

This week’s dividend will be .5/share, payable Monday 🔥 Here’s What’s Happening Now The AI trade hit a wall yesterday —and it wasn’t just tech. Gold, Bitcoin, and other macro hedges were dragged into the selloff as risk appetite snapped. Some of the AI names gave back a bit of recent gains, while OpenAI's trillion-dollar spending plans are starting to raise real questions about systemic risk and leverage in the AI buildout. Overnight, gold and crypto are bouncing as dip-buyers step back in, but the bigger macro force in play is the U.S. dollar , which is becoming the pain trade no one saw coming. 💲 The Big Dollar Short Is Getting Squeezed The Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index just posted its strongest weekly performance in nearly a year , up 1.2% despite a U.S. government shutdown and soft economic data. That’s triggering massive pain for funds betting on a weaker greenback: Hedge funds are scrambling to cover shorts , with options data showing the most bullish sentiment on the dollar since April The yen and euro are collapsing , giving the dollar a relative bid as the "least dirty shirt in the laundry" Fed officials are pushing back on rate cut expectations, suggesting the full easing cycle priced in by markets may be premature That has created a cross-asset shock : higher dollar, weaker gold, Bitcoin, and export-heavy equities. Even emerging market bonds and equities, which had ridden the “soft dollar” tailwind all year, are under pressure. ⚠️ AI Leverage Is a Bigger Risk Than People Think Yesterday’s selloff in AI names also revealed something deeper: the entire 2025 bull market may be overly dependent on one over-leveraged private company—OpenAI . OpenAI has now committed to $1 trillion in data center and cloud deals It owes $300 billion to Oracle ($ORCL) alone, whose stock soared 36% on that news The firm needs 15 gigawatts of power—equivalent to 15 nuclear reactors—and has no clear path to fund the remaining $800 billion That’s not just frothy. That’s 2000-era circular financing , with suppliers backing customers and Wall Street pricing perfection. If OpenAI stumbles, it could cause a cascading reversal in some of the biggest winners of the year, from chips to cloud to power. 🧠 Bottom Line We’ve entered a new phase of the market , where: AI optimism is colliding with fiscal, energy, and FX reality The strong dollar is becoming a wrecking ball across macro hedges and EM trades The OpenAI mega-spend is being tested for sustainability, and the cracks are starting to show Crypto and gold are bouncing this morning, but don’t mistake that for the all-clear. The unwind in crowded long AI / short dollar / long beta positioning may just be getting started. Recent history tells us to keep buying the dip, which I am doing selectively, but I have been raising a bit of cash just in case I get better dips down the road. — # (# ) Why Covered Call ETFs Suck-And What To Do Instead Thursday October 23rd 2-3PM EST Covered call ETFs are everywhere — and everyone thinks they’ve found a “safe” way to collect yield in a sideways market. The truth? Most of them suck. They cap your upside, mislead investors with “yield” that’s really your own money coming back , and often trail just owning the stock by a mile. Join me for a brutally honest breakdown of how these funds actually work — and what you should be doing instead. What You’ll Learn: 🔥 Why “high yield” covered call ETFs are often just returning your own capital 📉 How most call-writing strategies quietly destroy compounding 🚫 Why owning covered calls in bull markets is like running a marathon in a weighted vest 💡 The simple structure that can fix these problems — and where the real daily income opportunities are hiding Click Here To Register register.gotowebinar.com/register/223734574050559064 🧲 Rare Earths: The Cold War Commodities Supercycle Why rare-earth stocks are rallying as China gears up for Trump meeting on trade China is tightening export controls over rare earths amid ongoing trade tensions with the U.S. www.marketwatch.com/story/why-rare-earth-stocks-are-rallying-as-china-gears-up-for-trump-meeting-on-trade-b078e1a8?mod=home_lead Washington and Beijing are back at the chessboard—and the battleground isn’t semiconductors or tariffs this time. It’s dysprosium . And neodymium . And lithium. Rare earths and other critical minerals are no longer obscure inputs for niche industries. They're now weapons-grade economic leverage —and both the U.S. and China know it. 🇨🇳 China Escalates: Export Controls as Geopolitical Leverage China, which produces over 80% of the world’s rare earth supply , is tightening the screws: New restrictions require licensing for any product containing more than 0.1% rare earths by value This move follows similar controls on lithium battery exports , targeting global EV supply chains Comes ahead of a potential Trump-Xi meeting , likely as a preemptive show of strength The rare earth market—often dismissed by generalists—is now becoming a high-volatility geopolitical trade . 🇺🇸 U.S. Responds: Strategic Equity Stakes and Nationalization Light The U.S. isn’t standing still. Just as it has done with semiconductors and stablecoins, the Trump administration is quietly building a national mineral stockpile —this time via equity stakes in key companies .

Dell is no longer just a PC company—it's fast becoming an AI infrastructure powerhouse . The company is projecting $20 billion in AI server sales this year , fueled by soaring demand from hyperscalers and enterprise clients (including a reported $5B order from Elon Musk’s xAI). Its Infrastructure Solutions Group just posted 44% YoY sales growth , with AI server demand driving 69% growth in servers and networking. Despite this, the stock trades at just 14.5x forward earnings —a steep discount to the S&P 500's 22x, even as analysts expect 16–18% EPS growth next year . With a growing services business, $8B in cash, and optionality for M&A, Dell is transforming into a high-growth name still priced like a legacy hardware stock. Cheap, fast-growing, and misunderstood.
