When you publish a news article and then someone reaches out to you with even more information:

Canada’s pension plan has invested $1.2 billion in the company that owns and operates the Ruby Pipeline that would supply gas to Kevin O’Leary’s Stratos AI data centre. This would give it an estimated 24.5% stake in the company, which operates 16,000 km of oil and gas pipelines and storage terminals across the United States. Alice Yang, managing director of the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board's "Sustainable Energies" group, also sits on the Tallgrass board. Patrick DeRochie, senior manager with Shift Action for Pension Wealth and Planet Health told The Energy Mix this is just one example he’s tracking that shows the fund is “making a big bet on gas to power data centres.”

"Some of the world’s biggest pension funds are halting or reassessing their private market investments into the US, saying they will not resume until the country stabilises after Donald Trump’s erratic policy blitz.

The moves underscore how big institutional investors are rethinking their exposure to the world’s largest economy as the US president’s trade policy upends markets, adding pressure to America’s private capital industry, which is under increasing liquidity strain.

Some top Canadian funds are backing away from taking on more US private assets because of geopolitical concerns and fears they will lose tax breaks on their American investments. Canada Pension Plan Investment Board, which has C$699bn ($504bn) in assets, is among those considering its approach.

Meanwhile, one of Denmark’s biggest retirement funds has paused new investments in US private equity because of concerns over stability and Trump’s threats to take over Greenland, an executive at the fund told the Financial Times."
