NOTE

Decentralization Fuels Opportunity in Energy and Manufacturing

China's historical dominance in manufacturing created beneficial disinflationary effects for US tech. Currently, a shift is occurring as nations seek to decentralize their reliance on singular industries, particularly energy. Countries like Saudi Arabia are diversifying from oil-centric economies, while the US aims to enhance its manufacturing capabilities. The support of major banks for nuclear power signals a shift toward decentralized energy supply chains, incorporating various energy sources like wind and solar. This transition could encourage fiscal stimulus across economies despite concerns over inflation due to oil price drops. Surging demand in metals indicates a changing landscape where traditional commodities may see price declines due to increased production capabilities, suggesting potential fragmentation within groups like OPEC. Moreover, easier financing conditions for oil extraction could lead to greater production, reinforcing lower oil prices despite fluctuations in demand dynamics driven by large-scale economic stimuli, particularly from China.
