Narratives lag and are very sticky. If you've spent the last decade watching gold not do much vs other assets then you happily adopt the the easy dismissive cases against it.

But when price fomo forces it, there's a phase change flip.

Peak coal? Hmm, how to put it: no.

The world added last year ~60 GW of coal-fired power capacity, the most since 2016 (China, that green champion, accounted for more than ⅔ of the increase), according to a new report.

Expecting inflation data to give fewer and fewer surprises as we move into AI world. Prices are public and AI will scrape everything. Forget LLMs, it's LNMs (Large Number Models) that will be the game changer.

As if they expected otherwise...
