- The world’s energy crunch is a battle between platitudes and physics. Leaders may want to pay closer attention to the physics part. So for more insight on the world’s energy crunch we reached out to a cartoon chicken.
Wait, what?
Doomberg is an anonymous team of analysts covering energy and economic trends. Their newsletter is Substack’s #1 finance publication and the group is represented by a cartoon chicken.
Motley Fool Senior Analyst Nick Sciple caught up with Doomberg’s head writer for a chat about:
The state of Europe’s energy crisis. - Nuclear’s place in a decarbonized future. - And what the Nord Stream pipeline attack means for the world.
Host: Nick Sciple Guest: Doomberg Producer: Ricky Mulvey Engineer: Rick Engdahl
Doomberg is always worth listening to
Hands down the very best analyst in the financial markets here! I wonder if the EU Council listen to him!
The Doomberg analysis presented here reminds quite a lot of Peter Zeihans work. Super interesting.
Doomberg is right about nuclear, but wrong about Hydrogen. H2 is incredibly inefficient, and it fails in so many ways: transportation, compression/decompression, would require all new pipelines, storage containers, etc.
Thanks doomberg
As a trader myself I've grown to understand human behavior only conforms to strict economic guidelines once every so often.
For example, every war in human history was a an economic catastrophe and well understood beforehand to be so; yet there are social and cultural principles that cannot and will not be crossed.
Does Doomberg think there would have been any other response to western governments continuing to buy russian product hand over fist than mass unpopularity / unrest?
Energy theory is fine in of itself, but where it fails is accounting for the human side of the equation, which is treated as a simple null constant.
We have had the technical ability to move beyond a lot of the worst hydrocarbon excesses for decades but chose to ignore it because humans are emotional beings 90% of the time.
On the flip side, when they talk about energy deficiency they make it sound like life or death, which in the vast majority of cases it really isn't: many people are finding out they can live ok lives at 18C during cold periods just fine as opposed to 21C.
