When Nvidia reported earnings last month, our essay covering the story on it became one of the most opened and clicked editions of the year. |
Everyone instinctively understood that Nvidia's numbers were part of a much bigger story. |
A story that weaves in global infrastructure, an outdated grid, rare and common materials, and, finally, what many don't yet fully appreciate: a copper story. |
Copper's recent breakout is the second half of that same Nvidia message. But there's something most people are missing. |
Nvidia is enormous. AI is enormous. The data center buildout is enormous. And none of them are the biggest driver of what happens next. |
Nvidia showed the demand shock. Copper is showing the supply shock.
|
Nvidia's earnings revealed a world racing to build AI capacity. |
Hundreds of billions are flowing into data centers. |
Every one of those facilities requires copper at every stage of the power chain. |
And because copper is such a tiny slice of data center budgets — under 0.5% — developers barely notice the price. It's a rounding error, and they buy whatever they need at whatever the cost is. |
That's why a rapid building surge can yank copper prices up 15% or more in a short window and drain already weak inventories almost overnight. |
This surge is one of the reasons why copper is breaking out in real terms. |
It's also why miners are outperforming the metal. |
And finally, it is why our October Moonshot Minute copper-miner recommendation is already up just over 15% after yesterday's close. |
But even this is just the surface. |
AI demand is real… but unpredictable. EM demand is not.
|
This is the part most miss. |
Even if AI slows… Even if data center expansions take a breather… Even if the "AI bubble" cools off… |
The copper story does not weaken. According to the research we're following, it actually becomes an opportunity. |
Why? |
Because AI is not the primary driver of the copper cycle, emerging markets are. |
Electricity consumption in EMs has already tripled since 2000. It will grow by another 30% by 2035 and nearly double by 2050. |
These countries will account for 65% of global GDP growth over the next decade. And copper demand tracks those curves upward like a shadow. |
India and Southeast Asia alone could add 3.3 million tonnes of new demand by 2035. If their development path even partially mirrors China's rise, the figure climbs past 5 million tonnes. |
That demand is structural, and it isn't optional; it also doesn't depend on an AI boom. |
Which means that while AI accelerates the trend, emerging markets anchor it. |
The supply deficit is locked in
|
Copper is breaking out because the world simply cannot supply what the future requires. |
Consider the following: |
New supply costs $23,000 per tonne of annual capacity Some projects run closer to $30,000 A mid-sized mine requires six billion dollars before production begins Major disruptions have already wiped out expected surpluses
|
The commodity wave is widening
|
The same forces pushing copper higher are lifting other metals tied to electrification, monetary stress, and global infrastructure. |
Two of the recommendations we shared with Premium Members earlier this year just crossed 100% gains. |
They have doubled in less than eight months. And they join two earlier winners that also doubled. |
That's four different Moonshot Minute recommendations in 2025 where following our premium research would have doubled your money. |
In a cycle like this, when a position doubles, it activates the Moonshot Ride framework. That is where the upside gets unlocked because we sell our initial capital and we ride the rest with house money. |
Congratulations to all the Premium Members who took advantage of these big winners. My team and I will continue working hard to make sure 2026 hands us even more winners. |
Premium Update |
Today's premium update explains: |
The two newest 100% winners Why both have now triggered a Moonshot Ride How this ties into Nvidia's demand shock Why copper's breakout is the stronger, deeper, longer-lasting signal And how emerging markets quietly set the floor under this entire commodity cycle
|
Nvidia showed the world where demand is heading. Copper is showing what the future will cost. |
But emerging markets are showing why the cycle has years left to run. |
This is how big secular winners form, and this is why you want to be early, not late. |
If you haven't joined Premium, I urge you to consider it today. It's up to you to decide and I've made it as easy as possible for you to join should you choose to. |
And if you are a Premium Member, keep reading below for the two recommendations we're taking 100% gains on. |
Double D |
P.S. Here's our current open portfolio with the tickers blurred out since that's only for Premium. As you can see, of the 18 open positions, all but 2 are up, and many are still in buy range: (keep scrolling down for the Premium Section) |

In today's Premium Section, you'll find a TWO brand new recommendations that hit our Moonshot Ride. What that means is they both have hit at least a 100% gain. Congratulations to all the Premium Members who got in. | I hope you've been paying attention because many of our picks are currently beating the S&P by up to 4-to-1 this year. | Most financial newsletters charge $500, $1,000, even $5,000 per year. Why? Because they know they can. | I don't. | I built my wealth the old-fashioned way, not by selling subscriptions. | That's why I priced this at $25/month, or $250/year. | Not because it's low quality, but because I don't need to charge the typical prices other newsletters charge. | One good trade, idea, or concept could pay for your next decade of subscriptions. | The question isn't 'Why is this so cheap?' The question is, 'Why would I charge more?' | π Upgrade to Premium Now | P.S. If this newsletter were $1,000 per year, you'd have to think about it. | You'd weigh your options. You'd analyze the risk. | But it's $25 a month. | That's the price of a bad lunch decision. | And remember, just one good idea could pay for your subscription for a decade. | π Upgrade to Premium Now | |
