    @WABAC,

    You know the guy likes to work the crowd (requires hyperbole). If Hollywood producers offered him to play the President on the screen, he could not have cared less for the responsibilities of the real one.

    I do not think he really has any agenda (other than Numero Uno and he is transparent about it) which allows him to change his mind constantly. I do not think he would object if the industry told him "let us not screw up the National Preserves" but we know that is not going to happen. Luckily, we have a Coalition of Single Issue Voters which means there should be a lot of internal conflicts and counterbalances within that coalition. That may save us from extreme outcomes. His new multi-billionaire tech buddies may push him to go full on into Nuclear. We (future Americans) will clean up later any damage done.

    I am thinking may be invest in Nuclear in the taxable accounts (long term view) and good old energy stuff in the IRA (for trading).
  • "Industry might have to drill a few test wells in the National Parks and Wildlife Refuges just to keep him happy."

    I strongly suspect that groups opposed to such a proposition will keep that tied up in lawsuits & the courts until long after his coming term is up. I suppose that'll work unless and until he tries to remain in office beyond his 4 years.

    No, he won't try that... the family presidential dynasty will be passed on to Trump Jr.

    The nice thing about a fund like GRID is that it doesn't depend on the energy source. Like a lot of things, it's pretty expensive right now.

    I generally agree with the rest of your comments. I was indulging my peculiar sense of humor.:)
