Every summer, I answer questions from the Eye on the Market client mailbag. Here’s this year’s version:

  • Why is there such a long backlog for natural gas turbines, and do their higher prices make solar+storage comparable economically as a form of baseload power?
  • Is China constraining exports of rare earths to the US and why did the DoD invest in MP Materials?
  • What are you seeing these days regarding the YUCs, the MEGAs and US equity market valuations?
  • What would be the real-world implications of a relaxation in certain US bank capital regulations?
  • What do you make of Apple’s paper citing the problems that reasoning models currently face?
  • What’s the latest on tariffs and unforeseen consequences?
  • Charles Gave wrote that the US dollar is no longer the world’s reserve currency. What’s your view?
  • Do JP Morgan’s blockchain projects argue for building positions in Ethereum?
  • What do you make of Sam Altman’s comments on fraud risk from voice authentication cloning?
  • Where are your next fishing trips?
