# AI hits a power wall, energy wins over chips

> The limit on AI growth will be electricity, not chips, so power suppliers gain while chip buyers and chip-hungry bets get squeezed.

**Result:** If held over the last 3 months (Jul 16, 2026 – Oct 15, 2026): +0.9%. Over the same days: S&P 500 +2.0%, Chip stocks −4.0%.

## What it holds

- **Power makers** (36%, −4.5% over 3 months): GEV (GE Vernova) −8.6%, VST (Vistra) +3.9%, BE (Bloom Energy) +1.9%, URNM (Uranium Miners Fund) −16.6%
- **Fuel for the grid** (23%, +18.5% over 3 months): NATGAS (Natural Gas) +26.3%, XLE (Energy Sector Fund) +19.5%, COPPER (Copper) +3.3%
- **Efficient chips** (18%, −6.8% over 3 months): TSM (TSMC) +1.5%, AVGO (Broadcom) −12.0%, ARM (Arm) −12.7%
- **Power-hungry builders** (14%, +20.3% over 3 months): against CRWV (CoreWeave) +14.2%, against IREN +26.3%
- **Cash** (10%)

## The plan behind it

If power is the bottleneck, the companies that make and sell electricity and fuel should do well. Power equipment makers, gas and oil, and uranium sit at the front of that line. Efficient chip and memory makers can still do fine, but a pile of AI data centers waiting for power is a risk, so we short a small amount of the most power-hungry builders. The cash is there in case chips and power both keep booming and we need to adjust.

**What would prove it wrong:** New power comes online faster than data centers need it, or chip supply becomes the thing holding AI back.

## FAQ

### Can I make one from my own idea?

Yes. Write what you believe in plain words at https://f.xyz/create. fxyz asks a couple of questions, builds the portfolio and shows how it would have done over the last 3 months.

### Can I turn a post on X into a theory?

Yes. Reply to the post and tag @fxyzai. It tests the view in the post and replies with the 3-month result and a link.

### What can it trade?

Stocks (Tesla, Apple, Nvidia), crypto (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana), pre-IPO companies (OpenAI, Anthropic), indices (Nasdaq 100, S&P 500), commodities (gold, silver, oil, copper) and currencies (EUR/USD, USD/JPY). One theory can mix them, and bet for or against any of them.

### How does it react to news?

On each check it reads the last two days of news on its biggest holdings and says whether the idea still holds. It can make one small change at a time: trim or drop one holding by up to 5 points. On autopilot the change waits 10 minutes so the owner can skip it; otherwise it asks first.

### How do I run it with real money?

For real money, tap Make it mine, open your copy and choose Use real money, with an exchange connected: Hyperliquid, Lighter, Lighter (Robinhood), Backpack, Pacifica or Binance. The money stays in your own account there. fxyz can place trades, but it can never withdraw.

### Can the AI get it wrong?

Yes. fxyz's AI turns the idea into holdings, and it can get that wrong: add a coin or stock that doesn't fit, or miss one that does. Check the holdings before you put money in. In your own copy, ask its chat to add or drop any of them.

### What do the 3-month numbers mean?

What $100 would have done holding this mix over the last 3 months, at real prices. It is a what-if, not a record: past or simulated results are no promise of future ones, and nothing here is investment advice.
