Q: Happy New Year!
Do you think the current share price of Brookfield (BN) already reflects their push into AI‑related infrastructure — power, land, data‑center buildouts — as well as the upcoming NVIDIA‑aligned chip and data‑center initiatives? I’m also curious whether the recent partnership with Figure, where Brookfield will host and support humanoid robotics training, is meaningfully priced in.
One thing I’ve noticed is that Brookfield’s revenue and EPS seem to jump around — up one year, down the next — even though the company appears to be growing overall. I’m trying to understand whether this volatility is just a function of their business model or something to be more cautious about.
From your perspective, what would be a reasonable entry point for the stock? And if you were to give Brookfield an overall rating (A, A‑, B, etc.), where would you place it? It seems to be a favorite among many investors, so I’d really value your thoughts. Thanks.
