Additionally, nuclear removes the intermittency problem that renewables can’t solve for AI workloads.
This is what the AI power race looks like: long-dated nuclear contracts, license extensions, and hyperscalers locking in supply decades ahead.
Vistra $VST just signed 20-year PPAs to supply ~2.6 GW of nuclear power to $META.
• 2.6 GW can support roughly 15–25 large AI-scale data centers
• Or ~1.5–2 million high-end GPUs running continuously
• Enough baseload power for multiple hyperscale campuses across Ohio & Pennsylvania
Uber tried to copy-paste their US model. Grab built for the reality of the region.
In 2018, Uber surrendered, selling their SEA operations for a 27.5% stake. It’s a masterclass in why "local context" beats "global scale."
- Uber stuck to cars. Grab realized that in cities likeJakarta and Ho Chi Minh, cars don't move. So they launched GrabBike (motorcycle taxis) to weave through traffic.
- Grab’s founders went to gas stations and coffee shops at 4 AM to recruit taxi drivers, even buying smartphones in bulk for them.
But Grab beat them by ignoring the Silicon Valley playbook and getting their boots on the ground:
- Uber launched requiring credit cards in a region where few people had them. Grab accepted cash from Day 1.
After diving deep into $GRAB , the most fascinating takeaway wasn't their tech but their hyper-localisation strategy.

Did you buy it for what it would do next Tuesday, or what it would do over the next five years?
If the fundamental business thesis hasn't broken, reacting to price action is just lighting money on fire via taxes, spreads, and emotional errors.
We live in an era of zero-commission trading and 24/7 financial noise. Every red notification on your phone screams at you to "DO SOMETHING!" The urge to trim, add, and react to daily volatility is immense
But hyper-activity is often the enemy of compounding

Added to $GRG.L at the end of Sept. and yesterday's move adds some fuel to the idea that the market was underpricing its growth.
