Critical Minerals Supercycle? How AI, Clean Energy & Geopolitics Are Reshaping Supply ChainsIn this episode of The Greener Way, host Michelle Baltazar chats with Vinnay Cchoda, responsible investment manager at BetaShares, about the predicted shortage of some critical minerals in the next couple of decades and how that could force a resetting of investment expectations and strategies.Cchoda says the convergence of electrification, AI-driven data center buildout, and unstable geopolitics is causing supply chain issues.He argues that the supercycle of critical minerals is directionally right but too simplistic, with uneven outcomes across the different types of minerals. For example, lithium and nickel are seeing faster supply responses and price corrections, while copper has hit new highs.The discussion highlights why investors need to look at their diversification strategies and how to respond to the cycles within the supercycle impacting investment outcomes.Read: Critical minerals in the age of AI and tariffs (Link: https://www.fssustainability.com.au/article/critical-minerals-in-the-age-of-ai-and-tariffs)01:08 Three forces converge04:17 Supercycle creates uneven outcomes07:27 When AI meets clean energy09:06 Predicted 40% supply shortage10:52 Supply chain bottlenecks13:05 Investor playbookWe record on Gadigal land and we pay our respects to the traditional custodians of country and elders, past and present.https://www.fssustainability.com.au/This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: OP3 - https://op3.dev/privacy

In this episode of "What's the Risk?" we take a look at the historic performance of Gold since 1970. There are many ways to invest in gold today, physically where you can own it, or have it stored somewhere, or maybe you could mine it in the Yukon, like Tony Beets and Parker Schnabel of Gold Rush fame.Alternatively there are ETFs in Australia, PMGOLD from the Perth Mint, QAU from Betashares, GOLD from Global X, iShares GLDN, and VanEck's NUGG. All have differences in fees and how they're structured. In the US, the better known ETFs are SPDR's GLD and ishares IAU. We're not looking at products however, simply looking at the Gold price history in USD.Gold has provided a decent long term return to investor, but it can be sporadic. Historically there have been periods of incredibly strong short term performance before almost going dormant for long periods. Such investments require extreme patience and discipline, however we do find that Gold may be a legitimate portfolio diversifier. Should you hold Gold in your portfolio? Like anything it comes down to your investment philosophy and can you justify it based on your goals or needs. It's not something to add on a whim, and certainly not just because the media is talking about it when it's hot.Want to learn more about investing?
