Ep. 339: Jay Pelosky on Tech Bubble (or Not), China vs. US, Clean Energy Plays
The global economic landscape is undergoing a profound transformation, shaped by shifting geopolitical dynamics and accelerating technological innovation. In this environment, traditional investment frameworks are being challenged by the rise of regional power blocs and new drivers of growth. A seasoned strategist with decades of experience on Wall Street offers a forward-looking perspective on how these forces are redefining competitiveness across continents.
A structural shift toward a tripolar world—centered on Asia, Europe, and the Americas—is reshaping global markets, driven by long-cycle investments in AI, defense, and climate. Unlike past tech booms, today’s growth is underpinned by real profitability and public-private collaboration. The U.S. risks losing ground due to lagging renewable energy policy, while China leverages cheap clean power and open-source AI to expand capacity. Countries like Brazil and Spain are emerging as strategic hubs for data centers and green investment. Meanwhile, private credit presents compelling returns, Chinese tech remains undervalued, and Europe shows quiet signs of revival. As nations increasingly channel capital domestically, the U.S. faces reduced inflows and a weakening dollar, signaling a pivotal realignment in global capital flows.
