    Do you think it’s a good idea to invest based on resources which will become scarce in the future?

    Hey guys!

    I have been doing a lot of reading recently with the Strait of Hormuz situation and the oil price hikes (have exams coming up but I can’t get this off my mind)

    And that’s when I realised that, aside from oil, there are a lot more resources that will (not may, will) surely become scarce in the future. So, along with AI, I have a list of them :

    1) Water
    2) Computing (for AI)
    3) Semiconductors
    4) Nuclear power
    5) electrical energy
    6) rare earth metals
    7) rare gases (helium)

    So with this in mind, do you think it’s a good idea to invest for the long term in stocks/funds which will benefit from a scarcity in these resources? Or are there other resources that can become scarce which I may have missed out on?

    Thanks in advance for your inputs!

      You’re feeling the fomo aren’t you?

      I think what might be scarce in the future, will be physical goods

      Unfortunately anything software related, virtual things etc. will be worthless

      Well yes, but don’t forget that (some) scarce resources can be replaced by other resources through innovation or necessity.
