Jukka Lepikkö wrote that AI stocks were, in his opinion, mispriced because the analysts following them did not understand reality. He mentioned that a Nomura analyst estimated that one gigawatt of data center capacity would generate $20 billion in sales for Anthropic. According to Lepikkö, the correct figure would be about $80 billion per gigawatt: he justified his estimate by noting that 25 percent of Anthropic's 5 gigawatt capacity, or 1.25 gigawatts, was used for inference and total sales were $100 billion. Lepikkö estimated that Anthropic would increase its computing capacity by 7 gigawatts next year. He said it was unclear how much of the new capacity would be used for training and how much for inference, but he assumed that the share for inference would be larger than it is now. If one third of the additional capacity were allocated to inference, it could, based on his $80 billion per gigawatt estimate, generate $185 billion in new revenue. In this case, Lepikkö suggested that Anthropic's ARR could be nearly $300 billion by the end of 2027. #AI #Osakkeet #Teknologia (translated)

He assessed that if effective means were already known, they would have already been implemented.

"The overall strategy has been clear for a long time: blame Ukraine for your own miscalculations and use Russian oil refineries as an example, while also protecting a target that is truly painful for the Russians. The figures regarding Russian diesel deliveries to the USA are not what matters here. What matters is the violation of laws adopted by Congress, as well as the creation of new precedents for cooperation and trade relations with the Russian war machine," said Olha Aivazovska, head of the analytical group of the civil society organization OPORA. #Ucraina #Trump #Rusie (translated)

Saara Huhtasaari criticized Petteri Orpo's presentation of the National Coalition's 60 million euro fuel package and wrote that it would not lower the pump price of gasoline or diesel. She reported that Orpo had accused the Finns Party of stalling the package, to which Riikka Purra responded that it contained no measures to reduce pump prices. Huhtasaari agreed with Purra's assessment. According to Huhtasaari, road traffic in Finland consumed about 3.3–3.5 billion liters of fuel annually. If 60 million euros were distributed evenly, it would mean less than two cents per liter, she estimated. However, in her view, the package was targeted at commuting tax deductions and professional transport, and it would not be reflected in the filling station bill of an average motorist. Huhtasaari wrote that the pump price could be lowered by temporarily easing the distribution obligation or reducing fuel taxation. According to her, Purra and the Finns Party had proposed easing the distribution obligation, but the National Coalition and RKP did not support either measure. She criticized the package as a constructed image before the elections and claimed that the National Coalition was not ready to make decisions that would actually lower the price of fuel. #polttoaineet #suomi (translated)
OsakeKeisari wrote that Mika Anttonen assessed in 2021 that biodiesel was of no benefit to climate goals and that its use became expensive for Finns.

He also stated that the distribution obligation would increase the use of biofuels and criticized the timelines of Finland and Sweden for implementing biofuel obligations. https://t.co/UBnNOxjCJI #biodiesel #ilmastotavoitteet #biopolttoaineet (translated)
