I don't even wanna tell you about how rich people take advantage of economic downturns instead of divvying up for society, but I will anyways: in 2008, then-Mayor Richard M. Daley leased Chicago's parking meters for 75 years to a private group, Chicago Parking Meters LLC, led by Morgan Stanley, which included the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority (ADIA) from the UAE as a major investor, for $1.16 billion to fix budget shortfalls, a deal that significantly raised rates and has been criticized as one of the worst privatization deals in U.S. history. Report came out this year. Happy holidays

How can I get retirement-friendly exposure to frontier markets + China-aligned economies? Hey everyone — I’m trying to pressure-test an investment thesis and figure out the logistics of actually implementing it inside a retirement account (401k, IRA, Roth IRA). My thesis is pretty simple: Long-term global economic growth is going to be heavily driven by demographics — specifically, the regions with the fastest population growth over the next 50–75 years. That means frontier markets (Africa, parts of South/Southeast Asia, Middle East) and major China-aligned economies that are building trade networks and infrastructure across those regions. In other words: • More people = more consumption • More consumption = more economic output • More economic output = long-term equity market upside And most of that future population growth is not happening in the U.S. or Europe. I’ve been trying to get exposure to: • Frontier Africa (Nigeria, Kenya, Egypt, Morocco, Ghana, etc.) • Frontier Asia (Vietnam, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Philippines, etc.) • Middle East/Arab markets (Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar) • China itself + China-aligned emerging markets However… almost all true “frontier market” or regional Africa/Middle East ETFs have been delisted from U.S. exchanges. The only good options seem to be UCITS ETFs listed in London, Europe, or Asia, which U.S. brokers won’t let you buy inside tax-advantaged accounts because of PRIIPs/SEC compliance rules. So here’s my question to this sub: 👉 Is there any way to gain meaningful frontier-market exposure inside a U.S. retirement account (401k or IRA)? Or am I stuck keeping this thesis in a taxable global brokerage account only? I’m aware of broad EM funds like VWO/IEMG, but they barely touch the true frontier economies I’m trying to target. I’m specifically looking to see if there are: • Mutual funds accessible to U.S. retirement accounts • 401k-eligible “global small-cap” or “frontier-tilted” funds • Any U.S.-registered ETFs that still reach Africa/Frontier Asia • Or any retirement vehicles that allow holding UCITS from abroad If anyone here has navigated this or has ideas on getting demographic-weighted global exposure within a retirement structure, I’d love to hear your thoughts.

I feel like nvidia is on the verge of canceled orders, all this debt financing coming from the mags. Growing accounts receivables on the balance sheet, no ROI on AI. If nvidia doesn't start selling internationally Saudi, UAE, China, etc... I think the US economy is gonna be in trouble. Fuck it full port calls monday! I'll get out before the pop, trust me bro.

As someone who works with clients in the UAE, this is it. It's a wonderful place, but investing there with no pre-existing connection will raise too many eyebrows from the authorities.

Yep, UAE 🇦🇪

SignificanceLate7002

The UAE has been moving toward stablecoin integration, setting up government regulation and preparing gold backed treasury companies. Could this be the shift to gold backed crypto?

Fit_Attitude_2781

Wow, so the UAE actually spending their oil money on something that could actually generate money? That's new. I mean at least it is a bubble which will not sustain them after their oil-money-fountain runs dry.

Just look margin, it's just crazy ... This company is just becoming a monopoly monster. Nvidia lead the AI revolution. Everyone is ready to pay for nvidia chipset : GAFAM, Saudi, UAE, Europe, car manufacturer...

SidonyD

It's impossible for Nvidia to miss the earning today : \- They've still excute order from their three biggest client \- they've got the deal with Saudi Arabia and UAE \- they've got the order from independant hyperscaler like Nebius, Coreweave and other \- they've got Nvlinks as new product \- they've got the chipset for cars and even with china chipset ban, they beat the estimation last time. It's impossible to miss.

Ah, unlike UAE, that has staged and running the actual genocide in Sudan?

datamoves

Take a look at some international players. Unless the USA builds 90 nuclear power plants in the next four years, we will be unable to meet the energy needs for the AI model building we have by 2030. In other words, we will need to get it from elsewhere. Halliburton is a company, if you study closely, that is focusing on the international data center opportunity in places like the UAE, Dubai, and SE Asia. Might be a good bet.

GneissFrog

maybe MBS visiting the WH means all those "deals" signed back in May will actually come to fruition. Up to this point, the only thing the UAE got was planes, no chips or data centers.

I expect more extreme left or right in the future.

BackRepresentative98

I also agree to some extent. But like Due Papaya commented, this is the top exec of one of the top holdings in one of the richest countries in the world. What could be the reason for this high profile individual taking a board seat in a small, 11m market cap company? Well, this appointment + the 10m share offering cancellation (only 2 months after it was first submitted to the SEC) point towards a potential UAE/Al Nuami investment. Am I crazy to think this?

Due-Papaya-6217

I understand your point but this individual is the managing director of the Al Nuaimi Group (one of the largest conglomerates in the UAE).

Due-Papaya-6217

I did consider this, but I think it provides the company a source of liquidity if other capital options fell through, in other words it may have provided them with a contractual financing safety net whilst negotiating with the UAE. Given that the board appointment may allow the company access to a non dilutive funding stream, we may see a termination of it next week. As I said, this play is very much news dependent, If you look at the filing it requires the company to hit certain milestones to release the funds. If what I suspect comes to fruition, they will look to settle the prepaid amount to terminate the SPA or do it via mutual agreement. I will be paying close attention to the filings next week, this is highly speculative of course but given that this very small company has secured the directorship of the managing director of the Al Nuaimi Group, I am confident that there are larger things in play here.

I'm unfamiliar with what options there are in the UAE, but the most generic advice I can give is to invest in VT which is Vanguard's global stock market ETF using whatever type of account gives you the best tax implications

VodkaBoiX

most advice here is not to listen to reddit lol but i think its more like, listen to people on reddit who seem they have an idea of what theyre talking about and check if they contribute to many subs or whatever before listening to their advice and always double check what they say with outer sources... now i say this because i get alot of advice from reddit and i love it and its always been more helpful then not following peoples advice from the ones who genuinely want to help! yes there are horrible advice on here but if you manage to carefully filter out the bad advice and listen to good advice then youll be good! anyways my actual advice for you is to make a budget spreadsheet and put 20 to 40% into investing in stocks, start with lets say 1k a month. i would put 40% into a world etf such as vanguard 500 or similar in UAE stock exchange. not sure what yall have there so research that yourself. then put equal percentage into blue chip stocks that are safe to hold but have decent growth, for example coca cola and costco. put some into tech, nvidia and google or meta for example, another into something like sofi or rocketlab and the rest into value stocks that seem undervalued , youd have to research that. or you could put the percentage into crypto. xrp or bitcoin. then 20% of the remaining income into physical gold and silver or bonds, so lets say u got 40-50% income left after all bills. also id recommend you put some money into entertainment/holidays/leisure for yourself. anyways put 25-30% into emergency fund in a bank account so that you got a nest egg for when shit hits the fan. with whats left you can use to further increase your investments/leisure/or invest into your job to produce more income. hope it helps

Reggio_Calabria

We have no real planet-saving policy. The goal post in electric cars keeps moving, there are no taxes on red meat, subsidies to renovate homes are sparse, we still do not promote nuclear energy, etc. I see other reasons that stop us from growing: 1/ living beyond our means (we forgot how poor some people used to be, we can’t have million-euros MRI machines in each city, we can’t always pay more for retirement, we can’t afford plethoric administration, etc.) 2/ being complacent on energy supply (getting told by the US what oil and gas to pay at a pax americana premium) that makes our production less competitive 3/ not being restrictive enough on trade deficit (not all trade is good, buying cheaper machines to make our factories more competitive helps in the short-term, buying chinese flat screens or japanese home cinemas never helps our economies, environmental clauses in RFPs were supposed to make Chinese less competitive but they adapted) 4/ not having the ability to make others pay for our deficit through the dollar, not having the ability to hide our deficit like the PRC, not having oil reseeves funding Indian slave labor (it’s that bad in the UAE)

Microsoft said Monday it will be shipping Nvidia’s most advanced artificial intelligence chips to the United Arab Emirates as part of a deal approved by the U.S. Commerce Department. The Redmond, Washington software giant said licenses approved in September under “stringent” safeguards enable it to ship more than 60,000 Nvidia chips, including the California chipmaker’s advanced GB300 Grace Blackwell chips, for use in data centers in the Middle Eastern country. The UAE has pleged to invest $1.4 trillion in U.S. energy and AI-related projects.

Sensitive-Radish-292

No you're simplifying it. Tell me you haven't read it without telling me you haven't read it. My thesis is based on the fact that: \- Strong DoD contractor, critical for US Military -> the US can't let it go under especially during times where there is money being poured into the military \- Book value at the time when it was 18-20 was heavily undervalued \- New CEO who made a good turn around of the company - proven by latest earning calls, currently the market is being adjusted and I am willing to ban bet on INTC being 39+ next week \- 18A is done and in production, has clients \- UAE has interest in intels AI PCs (not mentioned in DD) \- TSMC, Samsung is behind, TSMC is catching up \- Foundry is operational <- most critical \- A lot of investments from key players and a critical client secured \- Vendor lock-in for certain tech (e.g. TEE - intel is still the dominant driving force, if you invest in blockchain then guess what.. it most likely runs on intel hardware) \- Key investments in future areas important ( I don't want to dive deep into why TEEs, FHE, etc.. are important ). You are really dumbing it down, making me believe you have a strong bearish position on INTC. Which is fine - it's your opinion and I'm not gonna try and convince you. But using the argument that something went wrong for several years under a certain leadership automatically implies that the new leadership follows in the same path is just stupid sorry. Keep in mind that Lip Bu Tan knew INTC from inside out, he was in the board and he was pissed at how it was operating and left. When he got back he started immediately implementing what he was proposing the whole time. People were scared, but later on praised him. He has thrown out many of the middle management that was completely useless - and I know they were, because I met those middle managers and talked to people who had to work under them.

UUber is not investing $100MM in WeRide to make $200MM. The CEO said Uber investment in WeRide is the biggest of its kind. Uber was launched on seed money of 1.5MM+/-. Revenue was minimal over first years. Cumulative losses from 201-2013 was $50MM. Q2 2025 revenue was >$12Billion. Uber EATS launched on $10MM-$12MM seed money. Uber EATS had net losses of $100MM-$200MM. Q1 2025 Uber EATS revenue was >$3Billion. This is Uber 2nd investment in WeRide. They are not looking for $200MM return on their investment. Now do GRAB that does the same as Uber into YE and over H1 2026. Now do several pilots and trials wrapping up in the UAE and ME this year plus expansions in EU. PONY may be the dog soon. Was it the diversion for Uber to get a lower avg weighted cost basis on the $100MM stake?

In case of Thailand it is not just the country instability or politics, but the corruption. I saw that your wife is Thai so I'll give you an example: she can easily hire a lawyer and bribe a few officials and transfer all your assets in the country to her, leaving you destitute. I am not saying that she will, but she EASILY can, and that is a HUGE risk. I am not in a position to advise you, but I would look for places where you can keep your assets without having to worry if they are going to be confiscated or stolen. With a 5M net worth I would split it across a few different locations at least. Again, places like Singapore, Hong Kong, UAE, Cayman Islands, etc. You can then open a brokerage account or invest directly with your local bank in US stocks and ETFs. Those ETFs can help you split your risk across different regions (ie KWEB for China), but again, that requires a level of knowledge you admit not having. Another important point is that you seem fixated on the 10% average return, but that is not what any advisor would recommend you withdraw every year. If you have 700k for retirement you should not be withdrawing more than 4% a year (possibly no more than 2.5% which means 1.4k a month - not a lot of money, even for Thailand) because your 700k will be losing its purchase power to inflation over the years and in a decade or so you would have the equivalent to 500k in today's money if you are withdrawing all the profit from the investments (those 10%). That's why you want to invest in something that will return at least your yearly withdrawals + inflation (eg 2.5% + 3%).

Accomplished_Owl1338

CAD or USD? Pre or post tax? Places like Singapore and Hong Kong have no capital gain tax and at least in HK you can open an account on iBroker, Futu, etc. and invest directly in the US market. I am not sure about the UAE, but it is probably similar. HKD and AED are pegged to USD and your investments would be in USD (unless of course you decide to invest locally) so no currency related risks (no, the HKD will not lose it's peg and whoever peddles that idea is a moron). Getting a visa for these places tends to be straightforward if you have a local employer, and quite often you can open a company that will then sponsor your visa for 5-10k USD. A financial advisor will most likely offer you mediocre products that pay them good commissions (I had a handful of FAs over the years until I learned enough and all of them sucked, even costing me money). Thematic ETFs tend to underperform broad market ones in the long term and have higher fees, so pick them only if you are comfortable rotating your capital when appropriate. Modern portfolio theory is bullshit as correlations increase and black swan events bring everything down regardless of beta. Splitting your money across the market is generally a better strategy in the long term. Start by watching videos about the basics. This guy has some relatively accessible content and happens to be Canadian: [https://www.youtube.com/@BenFelixCSI](https://www.youtube.com/@BenFelixCSI) (I am not affiliated with them and am not recommending you invest your money with anyone - see opinion about FAs above). You mention you have another 5M parked somewhere, losing value to inflation and currency debasement. With that kind of money you can afford an education (assuming you are not math challenged - nothing wrong if you are, but it makes things way harder for you to manage personally). There is plenty of good and affordable content out there. Check Asswath Damodaran videos and books if you want to learn more about finance and valuation (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLvnJL8htRR1T9cbSccaoVw). I see that you are planning to move your finances to Thailand. That would be incredibly stupid. Many foreigners lost their savings there. If there is one thing you should diversify is your local risk exposure. Again, I am not affiliated nor recommending the services, but get familiar with what companies such as this one offer: [https://www.youtube.com/@nomadcapitalist](https://www.youtube.com/@nomadcapitalist)

EH_Story

WRD, WeRide. Currently listed on the NASDAQ and recently approved to do a secondary listing on HKG markets. Pure play robotaxi firm based out of China with a fleet of 1000+ vehicles, rapidly expanding globally. They operate the largest fleet outside of the USA and China (in the UAE) and the second largest in China. It looks like they'll be the first to start scaling in South East Asia and have the best chance of scaling in Europe (based on their regulatory approvals). Team is staffed to the gills with geniuses. For some reason, when robotaxis come up on this forum and others, it seems like people are still under the misconception that it hasn't been solved yet outside of Waymo. But it has, and the real players (Waymo, Baidu, WeRide, PonyAI) are starting to rapidly scale. I got in RKLB early, and this is the company that's most felt like RKLB to me since then.

loudblackcat

Because the UAE would still need to profit if it’s reselling U.S. chips to China. So China would end up paying more anyway unless the UAE decides to take a loss, which isn’t likely.

Nvidia just keeps proving how central it is to the global AI supply chain. The export approval to the UAE adds another big market to its reach, and with AI demand still running hot, this only strengthens the growth story.

Not sure if I agree with that analogy. Using the example of stargate in Texas, OpenAI is using it. META has Hyperion in Louisiana. Think data centers build out is like the hoover dam. It is a infrastructure project, jobs are being created, suppliers are being paid and electricity is being used. The government and foreign money has a hand in it (Think Softbank, UAE, Qatar, Saudi) The economic activity is there, whether or not it pays off remains to be seen. The problem is a lack of supply atm. Could we overbuilt, surely. The point is data centers are being build and utilized, credit remains very cheap, if any kind of unwind happens, it likely wont happen anytime soon, especially with midterms next year.

Before the heavy restrictions on China, Nvidia was only making around $5b/quarter from the Chinese market And yet now that Nvidia has permission to sell to UAE, a market literally 1/1000th that of China’s, the market cap is up by $100 billion Absolute clown market.

That's the point. The Trumps founded it and owned all the original coins, the UAE "invested" in it with $100M and pumped the price, and the Trumps sold all their "coins" and took that money.

those UAE data centers are primarily geared towards Chinese users
