[Wealth Daily logo] What Will You Do When Gas Reaches $10 a Gallon? [Alexander Boulden Photo] By [Alexander Boulden]( Written May 24, 2022 Markets continued to slide this week as investors grapple with three growing concerns. First, we’ve got rising gas and energy prices. The national average is $4.59 a gallon, with California averaging $6.06. Experts say the average will reach $6 across the U.S. But many people fear it’ll go much higher than that. What will you do when it reaches $10 a gallon? Limit your travels and stay home more often? Spend less on luxuries and more on essentials? Yes to all of the above, unless, of course, you can no longer afford essentials. Which leads to the second problem... inflation. When the latest inflation number came out at 8.3% — just 0.2% lower than the previous number — pundits rejoiced, saying inflation had reached its peak. But this number merely indicates inflation is still climbing, just at a slower rate. Oof. Finally, tying it all together is a complete distrust in our leadership at the helm because of government overspending. In the latest example of this, the Biden administration just sent $40 billion to Ukraine. It’s broken down as $20 billion for military support, $8 billion for economic support, $5 billion to offset food shortages, and $1 billion to help refugees. The end game of this investment remains to be seen, especially if Ukraine loses the war. ---------------------------------------------Advertisement--------------------------------------------- Could This $6 Virginia Tech Upstart Be About to "Crucify" Coal? Approximately 153 U.S. coal plants are expected to shut down by 2025... Plants that currently power a staggering 9.7 million American homes. And now a bizarre metallic substance pioneered by [a tech operation scheming out of Reston, Virginia](... Could take over our crippled coal empire and snatch the $1.14 billion per year in revenues it will leave it its wake. Given that this tiny upstart’s making just over $1 million in revenues... What’s coming could spell a staggering 46,018% gain opportunity for those willing to act soon. What’s in [this breakthrough report]( reveals this may only be the beginning...

Obviously, we don’t want a war and don’t want bloodshed. But when do we say enough is enough? Especially with our economy teetering on the brink of a recession... There’s got to be a better way to support Ukraine while spending that money right here at home. Stoking further distrust, Jerome Powell and his cronies have been flip-flopping on every statement about the economy. After assuring us that inflation was “transitory” — something we’ve been crying foul about from the start — inflation is in fact here to stay. And raising rates isn’t helping; its too little too late. If the Fed is able to beat back inflation, according to CNN, it’s very unlikely to do so without sparking a recession. At the beginning of the month, Powell assured us a recession wasn't likely. According to Barron’s, Powell told reporters on May 5 that “It’s a strong economy. Nothing about it suggests that it’s close to or vulnerable to a recession.” Just five days later, President Biden gave a speech and said, “When you look at the economy today, it’s clear that we’ve made enormous strides. And our plans and our policies have produced the strongest job-creation economy in modern times... Our economy has gone from being on the mend to on the move.” But now experts say a recession is nearly unavoidable, and I’d argue we’ve been in a recession since November 2021. ---------------------------------------------Advertisement--------------------------------------------- World Economic Forum Predicts New Space Tech "Could Save Humanity" Right now, billionaires like Jeff Bezos, Richard Branson, and Elon Musk are all scrambling to stake their claim in this explosive new sector. And there’s one company at the center of it all, focused on using space technology to improve our lives here on Earth. It makes satellite launches quicker and easier, which could lead to launching more than 12,000 satellites into space. This would not only provide us with super-fast internet... But ultra-exact hurricane and glacier warnings, automatic SOS signals for aircrafts and ships, and breakthrough biotech experiments. And if you get in early, massive potential gains are on the table.

But each administration kept kicking the can down the road... And now we’re finally feeling the effects. This year, some parts of the U.S. will be feeling it more than others. That’s because the lack of energy storage is becoming a crisis. But where there’s crisis, there’s opportunity... The Coming Blackouts On top of all the problems mentioned above, a majority of U.S. states are at severe risk of blackouts this summer. An excerpt from a National Review article sums it up well: A few days ago, the North American Electric Reliability Corporation issued its assessment of the power grid for the coming summer and warned that the Midwest Independent System Operator region — basically from the east side of the North Dakota over to the state of Michigan, down to the southern tip of Illinois, and including chunks of east Texas, southern Arkansas, Louisiana, and western Mississippi — faces a capacity shortfall that poses high risk of emergencies during peak summer conditions. Then, everything west of that region — basically the entire country west of the Mississippi River — is at elevated risk of blackouts, owing to drought conditions impacting hydroelectric plants and greatly increasing the likelihood of wildfires. This underscores the fact that despite the gargantuan push for renewable and sustainable energy, the U.S. is woefully behind when it comes to energy storage, as we've been conditioned to utilize mainly lithium-ion batteries. And now that the U.S. is scrambling to find better ways of storing energy, there’s one little-known solution quietly gaining momentum. ---------------------------------------------Advertisement--------------------------------------------- Biggest Lithium Breakthrough in History Inside one of the world’s most advanced facilities, a small 65-member team has perfected the unthinkable...This genius team of scientists has developed a technology for creating an infinite supply of super-rich lithium right here in America... WITHOUT having to mine a single ounce.That’s right! No mining at all.How is this possible? And how could it make early investors 10 times their money or more?[This developing story continues here.]( --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A $14 Trillion Opportunity The problem facing the U.S. right now is a lack of storage capacity in our grid. It’s clear lithium-ion batteries can’t store enough energy and are too unstable for continued use. We all know from our cellphones that lithium-ion batteries don't last very long. That's because lithium batteries gradually lose their ability to retain a charge and stop working altogether after only 2,000 charging cycles (about five years). These batteries also pose a fire risk, as electric vehicles and gigafactories have caught fire countless times over the years. Lithium batteries also decay when not in use. The journal Progress in Natural Science: Materials International found that varying temperature conditions produce adverse effects on the stability of lithium-based batteries. So as the U.S. transitions away from lithium, the companies working toward an alternative battery tech will create windfalls for investors in the coming years. In fact, the industry's projected to reach $14 trillion within the decade. And there's really only one company on the front lines with a viable solution to this mess. It's produced the most promising new battery tech so the U.S. can store more energy and finally break its dependence on lithium once and for all.
