AI spending boosts commodity currencies
"The commodity complex is rallying underpinned by a surge in AI capital expenditures plans. Amazon, Google, Microsoft, and Meta have forecast to spend a total of about $660bn in 2026 (2.1% of US GDP) for new data centers and equipment. That’s 60% higher than in 2025 and 165% higher than in 2024."
"Commodities, particularly precious and industrial metals, will keep benefiting from the ongoing AI spending boom. Every new server and power system requires large amounts of silver, gold, platinum, palladium, and copper, for high performance chips, wiring, and energy infrastructure."
"AUD, CLP, ZAR, BRL, MXN, and PEN all stand to outperform."
