The costs of global warming and its mitigation will have a major
impact on equity market performance over the next two decades. As
the climate changes, investors will need to understand which are
the best-positioned market sectors and stocks as well as those to
avoid. Hot Stocks provides a roadmap detailing how to invest in
this new reality. It evaluates the many ways global warming will
affect profit flows in the economy: Impacts of a warmer climate,
rising ocean levels, more frequent extreme storm events, land
desertification and ocean acidification. Potential for government
taxation on greenhouse gas emissions. Accelerating switching to
renewable power systems that are increasingly cost competitive with
those powered by oil fossil fuels. Government bans on sales of cars
powered by internal combustion engines and the electrification of
the terrestrial vehicle fleet. Potential for hydrocarbon reserves
and equipment becoming impaired or 'stranded assets'. Rising demand
for major infrastructure projects to protect valuable coastal real
estate from inundation. Litigation aimed at forcing legacy
polluters to pay mitigation costs. The book drills down on how
these myriad changes will depress or support stocks in sectors such
as the petroleum industry, automakers, renewable power providers,
regional banking, property insurance, heavy equipment
manufacturers, Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) and
agricultural chemicals. The analysis then pivots away from a
US-centric focus to identify those nations around the world whose
economies are best positioned to successfully adjust to the impact
of rising prevailing temperatures, as well as those likely to
suffer the most from the trend. Hot Stocks introduces readers to
investing in ways that that will likely succeed as the world warms,
climates change, populations move, and businesses change.
Accessibly written and well-researched, this work is for the novice
and the seasoned investor alike.
