Okay Dow haters.
After being down 34.9% YTD on March 23, the Dow rallied to close on its high for the year on New Year’s Eve, up 9.7%. The FATMAN-G-heavy S&P 500 was up 18.4%.
Since 1980, we’ve had 34 up years, and 7 down years.

1,790,642MW operating coal plants globally
Additional 11% or 199,572MW under construction
Additional 17% or 297,829MW planned
So there are plans to add nearly 1/3 to the global coal fleet
