"Cantor Fitzgerald, a financial services company led by the sons of US commerce secretary Howard Lutnick, is creating a way for investors to bet that President Donald Trump’s signature tariffs will be struck down in court."
Id heard that Cantor Fitzgerald, the Wall Street firm formerly run by Commerce Secy Lutnick and now run by his sons is one of the big buyers of these refund rights. Turns out it’s already public back in July when they were buying them at 20 to 30 cents on the dollar. www.wired.com/story/cantor...

Today on Volts: the sun doesn't shine at night, but if you add batteries it might as well! If you're not closely tracking the industry, you're probably not aware of just how cheap solar+storage is getting, and how quickly. I talk with the authors of a new Ember report about the good news.
Solar+storage is so much farther along than you think
On how plummeting battery prices make 24/7 solar power a reality today.

Just recorded a pod on solar+storage and holy shit y'all, if you are not tracking this market on a daily basis, you have no idea how wild it is. The global average price of a battery pack fell 40% *from 2023 to 2024*. That dropped the LCOE of a solar+storage plant by 22%. In a year!

2/ It was bad enough they cut all the tax incentives for wind and solar energy - they added a NEW TAX on these projects to make sure America never builds any new renewables.
Remember, Trump promised the oil industry provisions like this in exchange for a $1B campaign donation.
