      Energy sector.

      Energy generation, transmission and distribution is the one thing needed for any other sector. Everything needs energy in the end. And some particular sectors need huge amounts of energy.

      But I wouldn’t be able to pick a subsector in energy. Renewable, nuclear, utilities, all will play a role. So I would say the energy sector in general.

      Investing in space is investing in defence, ai , energy , agricultural, telecommunication , biomédical ,…

      Preface by saying that most of my money is in an EFT, but I have a lot of money in tech stocks too, e.g., NVDA, AVGO, BTDR, AMZN . . . Right this moment? Easily the Health sector because it is beaten up. About 2 months ago, after earnings, I bought CI – which cratered that day. I bought a 1000 shares and I am up 10%+ and expect to be up more than 30-40% by the close of next year. UNH, ELV, etc., will also see these types of gains.

      There is no reason to limit yourself to just one sector, since that’s just taking on uncompensated risk.

      But assuming you’re a US based investor, definitely tech.

      We’ve had high quality international data since 1970s. There’s only been two stretches of US outperformance:

      – Mid-1990s to early 2000s
      – Post-GFC to now

      It’s no coincidence that big tech led the way for US exceptionalism.

      As soon as big tech crumples, so will US exceptionalism.

      Technology, almost all the progress we make as a society depends on technological advancement, plus also tech is inherently in other industry like healthcare, where AI is being used to help catch diseases quicker etc.

      Consumer Staples. Things that people need or companies that provide, for example: Walmart, Coca-Cola, Johnson & Johnson, Proctor & Gamble. Several companies in this sector are dividend aristocrats too, meaning they have paid dividends for 25+ years.

      Space.

      There’s a race, more money is pouring into the sector and launch costs are coming down which drives more demand.

      Agriculture, more youth are leaving farming, stigmatization as poor man’s job. But obviously can’t live without food. But it will require some investment into it. My thoughts.

      If I had to lock into one sector for 10 years, I’d pick AI and semiconductors. Not because of hype, but because it’s becoming core infrastructure. It touches everything: cloud, defence, healthcare, energy optimisation, finance, automation. Even if individual companies come and go, demand for compute keeps growing.

      Defence and energy are stable but heavily policy-driven and capped in upside. Renewables and EVs are crowded and margins are already under pressure. Agriculture is essential but slow-growing.

      AI is one of the few areas where productivity gains can scale globally without linear cost increases. Over a decade, that’s where sustained outperformance usually comes from.

      Robotics.

      I don’t know much about it, but I keep seeing new videos of the robots from China and all I can say is it LOOKS like they’re 2 steps away from greatness.

      Hell, maybe all the videos are AI tho idk tbh

      Renewables, doing it right now and it’s pretty good. I’d say they’re the right choice for energy long-term and require less manpower for folks, less overall investment past manufacture and maintenance for stuff like solar and wind. Shifting a good chunk into that sector but staying broad in companies (etfs etc)

      Robotics and AI have to be on that list. Morgan Stanley says it will be worth trillions by 2050
