Deep Dive: Investing in the Space Race of the 21st Century

October 2, 2024 – We recently re-aired an interview with uranium and nuclear analyst Mart Wolbert from earlier this year, where he discussed the behind-the-scenes efforts by major tech companies to embrace nuclear power. In recent weeks, this has been confirmed as Microsoft and several other tech CEOs have publicly supported nuclear expansion, along with significant investments amounting to billions of dollars. This is a significant development. Today, we caught up with Mart for another in-depth discussion on these recent trends, including the substantial energy and raw materials—like steel, concrete, copper, and silver—needed for these massive data centers. We also explore how the U.S. currently leads the world in data center construction, while the global data center race of the 21st century is expanding, with Europe, China, and various regions across the Asia-Pacific striving to catch up amid the ongoing AI boom.
