• Posted by Dejan Pekic BCom DipFP CFP GAICD

The World is planning to transition to Net Zero by 2050 which means trillions of dollars will be spent on renewable energy, storage, electrification and carbon capture.

According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), 2024… “Electricity consumption from data centres, artificial intelligence (AI) and the cryptocurrency sector could double by 2026. This demand is roughly equivalent to the electricity consumption of Japan.”

While McKinsey & Company, 2024 expects… “By 2030, Data Centers will account for 8% of all US Power Demand.”

We have attached IEA forecast of global growth in electrification and the expected quadrupling in power demand in the United States alone by 2040.

Diversification

Diversification is not defined as having every dollar invested in one single asset.

Can still remember Ted Turner orchestrating the Time Warner AOL merger at the height of the technology boom (official filed 11th February 2000) with the result being a personal fortune of over US$9 billion.

The subsequent crash and collapse of the Time Warner AOL share price crushed his personal fortune down to US$360 million.

Later he was asked in an interview how he could you lose so much money and his reply was simple ‘…I did not diversify‘.

Ted Turner was lucky, he was still left a millionaire after the collapse although he had been a billionaire but the moral must be that you should always seek to diversify both across different asset classes and within an asset class.
