Venture capitalist Tim Draper has invested in companies such as Hotmail, Skype, Tesla and SpaceX over the years. While he's never invested in Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), he couldn't help but praise founder Jeff Bezos for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/21/04/20675447/5-things-you-might-not-know-about-jeff-bezos">changing the world.</a>
Capitalism for Good: Draper is best known for his focus on Bitcoin these days. The venture capitalist said he wants to be useful and help drive Bitcoin forward, something that keeps him motivated to keep working.
During a recent appearance on "<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/razreport">The Raz Report</a>" podcast with Benzinga founder Jason Raznick, Draper said he hopes Bitcoin makes it so that billions of people who aren't part of the world economy can participate.
Draper explained that Amazon founder Jeff Bezos is super rich thanks to Amazon, but he also has made many people's lives better with the company he created.
"Amazon has made all of our lives so much better," Draper said.
Draper said he has benefitted from what Bezos has done and that's a part of the world economy that isn't spoken about enough.
"Those geniuses who create this incredible world for us are benefitting all of us."
Draper said this is part of capitalism where the inventors benefit but the consumers also win.
"We're better off because of it,&#8221; he said, adding, "I benefit hugely from what Jeff Bezos has done.&#8221;

Why It's Important: Draper used the reference to Bezos to compare to Bitcoin. The venture capitalist said this is the same with Bitcoin as he hopes that he can be a figure that helps the world economy with the leading cryptocurrency.
This is what drives Draper and keeps him working rather than sitting on a beach retired.
Draper said he funded Hotmail, which helped people send free emails around the world. He funded Skype which gave people the ability to use video to connect. His funding of Tesla helped consumers have electric vehicles and not have to settle for traditional gas vehicles.
While Draper made money on all these investments, he said it's important to see capitalism at work.
"The beneficiary is not just the one who made money. The beneficiary is the consumer."

OPAL Fuels Expects FY25 Adjusted EBITDA Of $90M - $110M

Global asset management firm Krane Funds Advisors introduced its Single-Stock Levered ETF Suite with the launch of the KraneShares 2X Long PDD Daily ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KPDD#NASDAQ">KPDD</a>) and the KraneShares 2X Long BABA Daily ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KBAB#NASDAQ">KBAB</a>) that began trading Thursday on Nasdaq.
KPDD and KBAB are structured to provide 200% of the daily percentage change of their respective underlying stocks, prior to fees and expenses. This gives investors with<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs"> leveraged exposure </a>to PDD Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PDD#NASDAQ">PDD</a>) and Alibaba (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>).
KPDD comes with an expense ratio of 1.26%, and KBAB has a management charge of 0.99%. Nonetheless, KraneShares has imposed a fee waiver for KBAB until Aug. 1, 2026.

PDD Holdings is a&nbsp;world-leading&nbsp;e-commerce&nbsp;player&nbsp;with&nbsp;presence&nbsp;in&nbsp;more&nbsp;than&nbsp;19 countries. Its&nbsp;overseas&nbsp;platform, Temu,&nbsp;outpaced&nbsp;Amazon&#8217;s&nbsp;monthly active&nbsp;buyers&nbsp;and&nbsp;reached&nbsp;$50 billion&nbsp;annual gross merchandise&nbsp;volume&nbsp;in 2024.
Meanwhile, Alibaba, the world&#8217;s third-largest e-commerce retailer, has increased its footprint in AI, cloud computing, logistics, fintech, and media. Its shares have recently picked up pace after it introduced its Qwen2.5 series large language model and a new AI collaboration with Apple (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) to include cutting-edge features on iPhones being sold in China.
Both PDD and Alibaba have&nbsp;been&nbsp;among the&nbsp;most&nbsp;prominent&nbsp;holdings&nbsp;within&nbsp;the KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KWEB#NYSE">KWEB</a>). 
Leveraged ETFs like KPDD and KBAB provide an efficient way for investors to amplify their exposure to leading Chinese internet stocks. "China Internet continues to be an important global growth theme," <a href="https://kraneshares.com/kraneshares-launches-single-stock-levered-etf-suite-with-2x-investment-exposure-to-temu-parent-pdd-holdings-kpdd-and-alibaba-kbab/">said </a>James Maund, KraneShares' Head of Capital Markets. "Our Single-Stock Levered ETF Suite provides a convenient way for bullish investors to gain levered exposure to top companies, including the largest China internet stocks."
These funds do,&nbsp;however,&nbsp;contain&nbsp;a&nbsp;lot&nbsp;of&nbsp;risk. They are&nbsp;meant&nbsp;for&nbsp;single-day trading,&nbsp;so&nbsp;their&nbsp;performance&nbsp;is&nbsp;best&nbsp;used&nbsp;for short-term&nbsp;purposes.&nbsp;Keeping&nbsp;them&nbsp;for&nbsp;more&nbsp;than&nbsp;a day can&nbsp;result&nbsp;in&nbsp;returns&nbsp;compounding in a way&nbsp;that&nbsp;could&nbsp;stray&nbsp;from twice the&nbsp;performance of the&nbsp;stock&nbsp;due to market&nbsp;conditions.
Mechanics of KPDD and KBAB
The KBAB&nbsp;seeks&nbsp;to&nbsp;replicate&nbsp;200% of&nbsp;Alibaba&#8217;s ADR,&nbsp;on&nbsp;a&nbsp;daily basis.&nbsp;This&nbsp;is&nbsp;accomplished&nbsp;through an investment&nbsp;in Alibaba&nbsp;stock and&nbsp;the&nbsp;use of&nbsp;swap agreements and options to&nbsp;multiply&nbsp;returns.
In the same way, the KPDD&nbsp;aims&nbsp;to&nbsp;double the daily returns of PDD Holdings&#8217;&nbsp;ADR.&nbsp;Similar&nbsp;to&nbsp;KBAB, it&nbsp;uses&nbsp;swaps and options for leveraged exposure and&nbsp;daily&nbsp;rebalancing.

Editor&#8217;s Note: The headline has been updated for clarity.
Goldman Sachs forecasts a surge in U.S. copper imports soon, driven by expectations of tariffs from President Donald Trump's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/donald-trump" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">administration</a>.
Per Reuters' <a target="_blank" href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/commodities/goldman-sachs-anticipates-surge-us-copper-net-imports-2025-03-11/" rel="noreferrer noopener">report</a>, the investment bank expects a 25% duty on copper imports by year's end, incentivizing stockpiling to frontrun the legislative. As a result, U.S. net copper imports could surge by 50-100%, adding between 200,000 to 300,000 metric tons to domestic inventories by Q3.
If this projection materializes, U.S. copper stockpiles could swell from 95,000 tons to as much as 400,000 tons or around half of global reported inventories – leaving the international market at historically low inventory levels.
For 2025, Goldman sees a 180,000-ton global copper deficit as growing demand for electrification, economic stimulus measures in China, and slow mine growth materialize. The bank sees the supply imbalance more pronounced in the second half of the year as a catalyst for higher prices.
"We maintain our forecast that the LME three-month price will average $10,200 per ton in Q3 2024 and see the impact of inventory dislocation predominantly in timespreads," the bank noted. Current three-month copper contracts on the London Metal Exchange were trading at $9,528.50 per ton as of Wednesday morning.
The largest U.S. copper producer, Freeport-McMoRan (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FCX#NYSE">FCX</a>), could benefit from this scenario, particularly if copper is classified as a critical mineral.
In a recent <a target="_blank" href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/commodities/ceraweek-freeport-sees-500-million-annual-boost-if-trump-declares-copper-2025-03-10/" rel="noreferrer noopener">interview</a>, CEO Kathleen Quirk expressed optimism that the Trump administration could make this move soon, unlocking the federal tax incentives to support domestic production.
"Having the incentives and clarity around those would be a big plus for the domestic copper industry," Quirk said. Such a designation would enable Freeport to claim more than $500 million annually in tax credits tied to the Inflation Reduction Act.
Freeport-McMoRan operates seven copper mines across the U.S. and one of two domestic copper smelters. The firm doesn't export any domestically produced copper, making it a key supplier in any scenario restricting imports.
However, production costs in the U.S. are higher than in Freeport's international operations due to lower ore grades, making policy support a crucial factor.
Per the <a target="_blank" href="https://mms.businesswire.com/media/20250122679192/en/2360933/1/FCX_250123_4Q_2024_Earnings_Release.pdf" rel="noreferrer noopener">latest guidance</a>, the company expects its U.S. copper production to increase by 8% in 2025, with further growth in subsequent years. Opportunities include doubling the concentrator capacity at its Bagdad operation in Arizona, which could add 200-250 million pounds of copper annually.
Quirk also hinted at a possible <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44216408/dr-congo-explores-a-minerals-for-security-deal-with-the-us" rel="noreferrer noopener">return to the Democratic Republic of Congo</a>, where Freeport previously owned the Kisanfu copper-cobalt project before selling it to China Molybdenum in 2020. "We would be interested in going back for the right opportunity," she said, adding that Freeport would seek to be the operator of any project if it re-enters the DRC.
Price Watch: Freeport-McMoRan has declined 5.28% year-to-date. The stock is up 1.56% to $36.44 premarket at the last check on Wednesday.
