The big evolution in this story pits it at the intersection of the solar and electric vehicle markets, which is an intersection of themes that more or less defines perhaps the biggest growth opportunity for investors over the next decade.
Both Gasoline and Crude Oil prices have more than doubled over the past 8 months. Both are now pain points for consumers, governments, and the global economy, and analysts say that is only going to worsen in the months ahead as demand rises with reopening, US shale producers stay mostly shuttered, and OPEC sits idly by or falls into policy paralysis from internal squabbles.
