Peter Thiel–Connected Investor Backs Super Copper; Shares Gain 9.86% to $0.78
On Thursday afternoon, NIA introduced Super Copper (CSE: CUPR) at $0.68 per share as a junior copper company backed by Apeiron Investment Group, the family office of billionaire Christian Angermayer. Apeiron Investment Group manages approximately $7 billion, with the majority of its capital coming from Christian Angermayer alongside longtime partner Peter Thiel.
Normally, Apeiron invests into Peter Thiel–backed technology start-ups, which is why an Apeiron investment into CUPR immediately caught NIA’s attention. This marks Apeiron’s first investment into a natural resource company.
After closing Thursday at $0.71 per share, Super Copper (CSE: CUPR) gained 9.86% today to $0.78 per share!
Here is a summary of Christian Angermayer’s investment thesis explaining why Apeiron Investment Group (Angermayer alongside Peter Thiel) is betting big on CUPR:
Paraphrasing Angermayer’s thesis:
“Unlike speculative tech trends, copper demand is already ‘baked in’ by policy, electrification, and AI infrastructure build-out.”
“Copper is one of the few commodities where demand is accelerating while supply is effectively locked in for the next decade.”
“The world is sleepwalking into a structural copper shortage that cannot be fixed quickly, regardless of price.”
“Super Copper provides exposure at the exact point where value creation is most explosive: the transition from concept to discovery.”
“A single successful exploration result can fundamentally re-rate a junior explorer in a way no mature producer ever could.”
“In a supply-constrained world, the most valuable copper assets are the ones that don’t exist yet — but will.”
Apeiron’s Natural Resources Lead, Sebastian Wagner, was recently appointed to Super Copper’s Board of Directors.
