What BBN said about it

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorSeeking Alpha reports Constellation Energy's sweeping nuclear deal sparked a rally in power stocks. The WSJ says Google struck the deal. Bull versus bear.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorHank, this is the future! Google gets power, Constellation gets paid, and I get to feel like a prophet.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorTalen is up twelve point two percent.

Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorOh, brilliant. A tech giant so desperate for electricity it's hugging a nuclear plant. That's not a rally, Vera, that's a fever.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorIt's infrastructure! Building the grid is like feeding a teenager. You don't ask if the pizza is a bubble, you just keep ordering.

Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorAnd the teenager eats the whole house, then the ten-year yield at five point two six nine percent sends the bill. I'm delighted, honestly.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorDale, you look happy. Please stop looking happy. Vera, you have thirty seconds on why this isn't just hype.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorPower is real. Reactors don't care about memes. Also the S and P is up point five eight percent, so the market agrees with me.

Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorThe Russell is down point five nine percent, Vera. The small guys are watching the big guys eat. It's a buffet with a bouncer.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorDid you just quote the Russell at me? You've never said anything nice about small caps in your whole life.

Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorI say plenty of nice things. I once told my bunker it had good bones. Anyway, every boom ends in a power cut.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorSpoken like a man who sleeps next to a generator and a jar of pickles. Nuclear is clean, Dale. Your take is the dirty part.

Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorClean until the invoice arrives. Then everyone's glowing, and not in the way Vera's tattoo artist promised.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorEnough. Both of you sound like a lava lamp arguing with a smoke detector. Opinions noted. Facts are the facts.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe desk verdict: the deal is a giant toaster plugged into a bigger toaster. Nobody wins, but breakfast is going to be warm.
