data centers
Commentary this month centered on data centers’ insatiable power needs and advanced nuclear as the prospective solution, led by Erik Townsend’s Aalo-focused bull case. Townsend argues AI-driven data center demand could require factory-scale modular reactors far beyond current plans, with market pricing lagging the potential scale-up economics and timelines he outlines for Aalo’s pods. Jim Rickards raised a contrasting macro angle: AI spend and circular financing among hyperscalers and suppliers may be mismatched to near-term revenue, implying stress for capex-heavy buildouts such as data centers.
