  1. Insurance Costs for Ukraine Conflict Mount

    An estimate issued by S&P Global indicated that the insurance cost from Russia's invasion of Ukraine could reach as high as $35B. According to Reuters, the company predicted that the losses in the specialty insurance market could range between $16B and $35B.

    Who do you suppose the big Insurer is? Lloyds?

  3. They certainly are my friend. As is medicine for Dogs as I WILL FIND OUT TODAY.

    So nervous... I got to calm down. Different Dr than our usual who does it a different way...
    Rather than a pill " topographical " Which means needle up the ear end.. three of those knock out pills I just gave him (the dog not the Dr). This breed can get anxious. I'm already that way.

    Van I assume this was a SPAC<----

    I have to say I like their product's look. I think they are the first charging compay to kind of take an Apple approach to the design.

    Wallbox’s Pulsar Plus, Smart Power Meters and Pedestals Now Available for Purchase Online and In-Store at City Electric Supply locations across the U.S.

    MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. & DALLAS, Texas, March 30, 2022--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Wallbox (NYSE:WBX), a leading provider of electric vehicle (EV) charging and energy management solutions worldwide, today announced a partnership with City Electric Supply (CES). Under this partnership, the family-owned electrical wholesale distributor has officially started to sell the 48 Amp version of Wallbox’s award-winning smart home EV charger, Pulsar Plus, along with its Smart Power Meters and Pedestals online and in over 535 stores nationwide.

    "We are excited to team up with City Electric Supply and support them in their mission of becoming the go to destination for EV charging equipment for residential and commercial customers and installers," said Douglas Alfaro the General Manager of Wallbox North America. "Our Pulsar Plus, Smart Power Meter and Pedestal are holy grail products designed to meet the evolving needs of the EV customers and smart home builders."

    Pulsar Plus 48A is compatible with all EVs and can charge powerful models on the market such as Tesla Model Y, Ford Mustang Mach-E, VW ID.4, Porsche Taycan. The Smart Power Meter is rated NEMA-4 for extreme weather events, ideal for outdoor installations. Features include flexible amperage setting, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity, charge scheduling, power sharing, the myWallbox app, and voice control via Amazon Alexa and Google Home.


    --> couple neat features... Power sharing caught my eye. I actually came up with this idea
    (another million lost) But when the EV thing started I was thinking out loud here about why can't these cars power the home in a blackout for a while? Run the fridge... Well they can. And Ford is working on this with their truck... I should of just taken the idea to Ford...

    It seems to me this charger is ready for backwards surge. Which ironically is my Dog's problem.

    Wallbox’s EV Charging Pedestal is a support accessory for the installation of Pulsar Plus and provides an elegant solution for standing charging stations at any parking space at homes or businesses.

    Pulsar Plus 48A, Smart Power Meter and EV Charging Pedestal are available for purchase online at https://www.cityelectricsupply.com/ and in-store at more than 535 retail locations across the United States.

    When a Gummy Becomes An Investment- It's getting close. So we had our big selloff day--
    whatever-- buyers did come in. And today on a generally meh day for energy... Quite A Bit of Vol.

    Tellurian Inc. (TELL)-- Could be setting up for a more significant move./ They have to build the damn thing..by the time they are up and running Putin will have attacked two more countries. I just sense people are digging here...There's something they like.

    Stoney I'm not saying it's not an excellent product, I'm just saying the company is not worth $2B+.
    Especially in a rising rate environment... and super-especially with an overseas company (Spain) regarding currency exchange. I honestly think the downside potential outweighs the upside on this one. But hey if you own it, I'm cheering for ya Stoney.

    What type of food do you feed Bachus btw? I'm sure the vet would have told you if it could possibly be diet related though. Is that common with that breed?

    my wife is saying that too// Blue Buffalo has been his brand.

    My last Rhodie did have some of the exact same issues.
    I just hope they don't tell me to cut his balls off.
    I don't think it's related.

    This guys ruining our sheets with blood marks. / not fun.

    Basically most of the energy plays are going to be really good within 1-2 months but short term the news is messing with stock prices and Oil price. Biden's move is actually bullish for Oil stocks eventually but there are short term reactions to deal with. If they broker a peace deal that could mess with things for a day or two as well. This is all setting up for a huge move in stocks soon but Oil could do all sorts of shit short term first. I sold most of my energy stocks today ( Oil in the morning when I got a window to exit, Nat Gas I took profits in the afternoon ). Kind of a reset I was balls to the wall long commodities all year and a lot could happen tomorrow. I like the freedom to either re-enter on any gap down or buy on trend after the daily news and Oil price is clearer.

    I made good money on speculative Lithium stocks this week sold most of them last hour today. Similar reasons I may regret it if they run immediately tomorrow ( SLI, LI on Venture; also bought some RCK a very thinly traded stock ). I know nothing about any of them just playing the sector buzz.

    Cdn energy stocks start reporting in a month there will be buyers on every dip for sure. Nat Gas stocks are looking very strong here ( see Crew Energy it's up 65% from a very recent oversold condition ). Birchcliff and Arc Resources should be stronger moves but I suspect the Oil release is messing with people's thinking.

    SLI, LI, FL, RCK all speculative Canadian listed plays. SLI is making a run I bought at 9.45;9.46 sold at 10.94;11.03 on two accounts. Thought about letting it run could get to the $15 area again or it could fail here hard to say. Definitely some bulls on it. RCK has a crazy chart I almost think that's the kind of stock that may just go straight up on the lithium buzz. LI seems to be more liquid but the sellers have been pretty active around $4. I haven't researched any of them other then none of them are profitable yet.
