Capital Market Expectations
Capital Market Expectations
Hard
Two concurrent technology shocks occur: (1) rapid increases in solar panel efficiency and (2) dramatic extensions in long-distance electrical transmission capability. Which statement best describes the combined CME impact?
A
The shocks are amplifying — together they expand economic activity in remote regions and enable movement of cheap equatorial power to distant users, producing effects larger than the sum of individual impacts
B
The shocks are offsetting — improvements in local generation reduce the need for long-distance transmission, neutralizing the transmission breakthrough
C
The shocks are unrelated — solar generation and transmission affect different asset classes with no meaningful interaction
D
The shocks are substitutes — each makes the other unnecessary, so the analyst should incorporate only the larger of the two effects
