What BBN said about it

Gloria Vance · World News AnchorBenzinga reports BWX Technologies shares are higher after its BANR microreactor was selected for a Transportable Nuclear Power Plant project in New Brunswick, Canada.

Gloria Vance · World News AnchorJoining us is an anonymous central-bank official, speaking from a parking garage. Sir, why the garage?
Anonymous OfficialLevel three, near the pillar with the yellow stripe. Concrete blocks everything. Also my office smells like a microwaved fish and I'm not going back.

Gloria Vance · World News AnchorI have been asked to leave embassies for less. Does a portable nuclear plant matter to a central banker?
Anonymous OfficialEnergy is inflation, ma'am. Cheap power is the one thing my committee fears more than a surprise buffet.
Anonymous OfficialOff the record, I'm sweating through my lanyard.

Gloria Vance · World News AnchorSelected is not built. Nothing here says it is finished, funded beyond what Benzinga reported, or switched on. Do you understand that?
Anonymous OfficialOf course. But I heard a car door close just now. That was a car door, right? Or a hit squad?

Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThat was a sedan. A woman is putting a toddler in a car seat. Please stay on topic.
Anonymous OfficialFine. My opinion only: markets love a reactor with wheels. At my last meeting, we argued for an hour about a thermostat.

Gloria Vance · World News AnchorDoes the committee have a view on which way rates go from here? Anything at all.
Anonymous OfficialWe have a view. We also have a vending machine that ate eleven dollars. Honestly, the machine is the bigger crisis.
Anonymous OfficialI need to go, someone is jingling keys.

Gloria Vance · World News AnchorWe'll have to leave it there. Our guest has fled toward level two, and BWX is trading higher on the selection.
