Not sure what that means for stock valuation, but I do think that gas will be getting a rapidly decreasing market share over the next 5-7 years.
This part is fascinating to me. We hear a lot of resistance from consumers who feel the purchase price is too high and want government subsidies/rebates. Yet the payoff is there and in the long run it's a wash, EV's are no more expensive it seems. People want it both ways I guess. Don't want to pay more but are quite happy to keep the savings for themselves. (not directed at you Aarongavey)
