Money and Me: Beyond Nvidia - The AI Infrastructure Gold Rush, SpaceX Mania and Alibaba's Second Act

About this episode

The episode discusses AI investment trends, focusing on infrastructure, SpaceX's IPO, and Alibaba's potential in the AI market.

As AI investment accelerates, we explore how retail investors can capitalise on capital flowing away from software toward the infrastructure powering the revolution. Arun Pai, Partner at Monk's Hill Ventures, shares his investment guiding stars and weighs in on whether retail investors are already late to the AI semiconductor trade. Michelle and Arun also examine SpaceX's blockbuster IPO, unprecedented investor demand, and whether Starlink could ultimately become more valuable than the rocket business itself. Plus, could Alibaba become the contrarian AI trade of the next decade? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
