Routine maintenance & upgrades to the #grid were already causing households nationwide to experience sticker shock on their monthly #bills. These added costs could drive regional prices even higher in the coming year. 2 co-operative #electrical #utilities that own the #Colorado #coal plant forced to stay online asked the #Trump admin to reconsider because it would raise #costs on their ratepayers.

All told, the #Trump admin keeping these plants open could cost #US #utility customers $3-6 billion by the end of 2028, the #Grid Strategies report found.

Some are literally broken: 2 #coal power plant units in #Colorado & #Indiana were not operational when Wright ordered them out of retirement, meaning they will need costly repairs & maintenance before they can even hope to be turned back on.

The “ex-America” #trade was a strikingly common theme at New York Life Investments’ global #investment meeting earlier this month, said Lauren Goodwin, an economist at the company.

“Our European colleagues were frankly stunned by the openness that #US investors have to diversify away from the US,” she said.

Goodwin & other investors stress that the sell America trade is more about hedging existing #US exposure, diversifying into other assets & deciding where to #invest new #money, rather than an attempt to leave the country entirely.

But over the past month, that #trading has fueled the sliding value of the #dollar, stalled the #StockMarket’s rise, increased government #borrowing #costs & sent the prices for precious metals like #gold soaring.

#SellAmerica Is the New #Trade on #WallStreet

#Investors are increasingly souring on the #UnitedStates, as illustrated by the declining #dollar, the stalled #StockMarket & rising #government #borrowing #costs.
