Q: An excerpt from Oaktree's quartley letters,concerning the US power grid, states:

The entire power grid needs to be updated and reimagined in many ways – some obvious and some that take more expertise to appreciate.

For example, substation equipment will need to be upgraded to handle renewable capacity additions. Tens of thousands of miles of overhead conductors will need to be replaced, and new lines will need to be built. And new distribution equipment, such as transformers, will need to be installed and serviced. In short, we believe investors should focus on the entire electric power value chain – from generation through consumption.

Could you please list some companies that you feel would benefit from the above changes.

Q: I understand these stocks [and others] are involved in grid electrification and modernization. infrastructure modernization and digitization of industry.
Could you comment on which ones [and others] you would recommend with rationale. Thank you.

Q: For infrastructure plays related to EV's I took a position in these 2 stocks at the beginning of the year. Both have done well but now over the last month seems to have trended down or flat.
thoughts going forward.
Thanks for your valued opinion.

Q: Although these three companies are different sectors, I would appreciate your update on these, their growth potential, and rating in preference.
Thank you, Team!

Q: Besides CCO or Uranium in general, what might be some other equities to gain exposure to a potential resurgence in clean nuclear energy?

Q: There will have to be a significant electrical buildout to facilitate a wide based conversion to EV. Everything from Power Production thru both new and upgraded Distribution to Charging Facilities and their components and other electrical elements I haven't thought of will benefit.
Who will be the biggest beneficiaries?
Will there be be clear winners in power production, presumably among renewable energy companies? What about their suppliers?
Will distribution equipment suppliers like GE and Siemens be rejuvenated? Who's best in class in their sector - one of them, Mitsubishi or?
In Electrical Distribution is there any clear leader or is it so decentralized that all the Fortis' and NEE's etc. benefit.
Will ATD.B and its competitors actually see growth in facilities and same store sales etc.
To what extent will energy storage be required and at what stage?

Thank you, Hugh

Q: I'm hearing a lot more talk about the electrical distribution system and overall infrastructure and how we need to upgrade to handle the greening of the world. Thoughts on companies that will be involved. picks and shovel type. Copper?

Thanks for all you do.

Q: Could you provide me with 3 U.S.A. based Industrial sector companies that have reasonably solid financial positions and good potential growth. Thanks.

Q: What's the best way to take advantage of the likely infrastructure spending in the US, post election. Thanks.

Q: It appears that in post Covid times, infrastructure money will be doled out to get the economy rolling again. It may be time to sell some tech or at least trim. I am currently over 40% in tech. It’s been great but I realize more diversification is important.
I know that you’ll recommend BAD and likely STN but what else may be on the horizon to consider?Thanks
