Good points from Pörssipatruuna. I’ll only comment on one here. Fortunately, we already have a widely accepted view of Taaleri as an opportunistic player whose hands aren’t tied by ten-year plans. Still, the company sticks remarkably well to its chosen focus on renewable energy and bioindustry, backed by Garantia’s cash flow.
Opportunism means that SolarWind IV can invest more freely and on a larger scale in Finland compared to its predecessors, simply because data center projects are opening up such massive demand that it no longer makes financial sense to head out to the middle of nowhere in Texas to ask for trouble and cry under a Trumpian dictatorship when the rules of the game change halfway through. The sooner we get rid of the US risk anyway, the better.
The biggest threat to Taaleri and the Taaleri investment, as Juurikki sees it, is that Taaleri’s expertise gets noticed internationally as well. A buyout from the stock exchange at, say, a 30–40% premium would be a disappointment for Juurikki. In Taaleri, if anywhere, they are playing the long game—whether people want to or not. One Sauli seemed to have figured that out, too. ![]()
