BREAKING: Chris Power CEO of Hadrian says “Everyone should tell their kids to quit college & get welding degrees” "The country needs you." “The next 2 decades is blue collar.” Hadrian is also bringing back Pepperidge Farms & baking. “All the white-collar jobs are going to get automated.” “We’re gonna see massive hyperinflation in blue-collar salaries.” "I think one of the greatest opportunities for private capital — apart from public-private investment alongside the Department of War (@DeptofWar) — is to build Chick-fil-A’s & bars around all of our factories. That’s free alpha. Please come set up franchises around all of our factories. We need to eat so we can work harder for the country."

Anduril gets a $20B contract. Tesla about to start on TerraFab. Hadrian announced a new factory. The new techno-industrial base is alive and well.

Full interview with @ekriessmann, Partner at @AltimeterCap, on the defense tech investment cycle (from @NYSE). “We’re seeing a durable multi-decade transition. The vast majority of the defense budget is still going to the legacy primes, and we’re just starting to see this next crop of companies really get to scale.” We discuss: – Why Altimeter believes we’re still early in the defense tech cycle despite record valuations – The shift from a software supercycle to a hardware supercycle across AI, defense, robotics, energy, and infrastructure – Why Anduril, Hadrian, and Castelion stood out as category-defining investments – How software-like operating leverage is emerging in advanced manufacturing – Why capital itself has become a competitive moat in defense – Whether defense tech valuations are in a bubble and why the real winners will still compound for decades – Europe’s defense opportunity and the rise of sovereign industrial capacity ...and more. 👇
