戴蒙本人表示不会购买黄金，理由是持有成本达4%，但承认在当前环境下配置一定黄金具有合理性。值得一提的 是，戴蒙提到的4%持有成本主要针对需要储存大量金条的亿万富翁，对于普通投资者而言，小额黄金的持有成本 接近零。 相比之下，加密货币的配置比例更低，仅为0.4%，不到黄金配置的五分之一。这表明当前黄金仍处于相对低配 状态。 投资者对避险资产的需求反映了对通胀和地缘政治动荡的担忧，央行购金需求是推动金价持续上涨的主要驱动 力之一。 摩根大通CEO戴蒙罕见表态称持有黄金"有一定合理性"，并预测在当前环境下金价可能轻松升至5000美元甚至 10000美元。这是这位华尔街领袖职业生涯中少数几次认为黄金配置"半理性"的时刻。 周二在华盛顿举行的《财富》最具影响力女性峰会上，戴蒙做出上述表态。周三金价刚刚创下4200美元/盎司的 历史新高，今年以来累计涨幅已接近60%，这一涨幅超过了股票市场的表现。 戴蒙对整体资产估值表示谨慎，称"资产价格有些偏高"，这一判断"几乎适用于当前所有资产类别"。他本人表示 不会购买黄金，理由是持有成本达4%，但承认在当前环境下配置一定黄金具有合理性。 上周，对冲基金Citadel创始人、亿万富 ...

Core Viewpoint - The energy sector is experiencing a speculative bubble driven by AI demand, with several revenue-less energy companies seeing their total market value soar to over $45 billion, primarily based on investor bets that tech giants will purchase their yet-to-be-built power generation facilities [1][3]. Group 1: Market Dynamics - A notable example of this trend is Oklo, a nuclear startup supported by OpenAI's CEO Sam Altman, whose stock price has surged approximately eightfold this year, reaching a market value of $26 billion, making it the largest revenue-less publicly traded company in the U.S. over the past 12 months [3]. - Another revenue-less company, Fermi, had a valuation of around $19 billion on its listing day earlier this month, currently maintaining a market value exceeding $17 billion, with historical data indicating only two other revenue-less companies have surpassed this valuation on their listing day [5]. Group 2: Investor Sentiment and Risks - The speculative wave highlights extreme optimism regarding future energy demand driven by AI, contrasting sharply with established tech giants that have substantial profits and can withstand industry fluctuations; these energy startups have little room for error and face significant risks if the AI hype diminishes [7]. - The investment frenzy is not limited to nuclear energy; Fermi, backed by former U.S. Energy Secretary Rick Perry, plans to build 11 gigawatts (GW) of power capacity, equivalent to the total installed capacity of New Mexico, yet has only secured natural gas equipment to meet 5% of its target and lacks binding customer contracts [11]. Group 3: Valuation Concerns - The high valuations of these speculative energy companies may be driven by the already inflated valuations of profitable companies, such as Bloom Energy, which has seen its stock rise over 400% this year with a forward P/E ratio of 133, and Centrus Energy with a forward P/E ratio of 99 [12]. - Historical precedents, such as the 2020 IPOs of revenue-less electric vehicle startups like Nikola and Fisker, suggest that many similar companies may ultimately fail, raising concerns about the sustainability of current valuations in the energy sector [12].
