RE:German Nuclear Shutdown Ruled Unlawful:
I wonder if Angela Merkel bargained on this coming back on her quite like this. There is somewhat of parallel to this story and the Ontario gas plant fiasco. You can certainly understand how the Swedish investors feel about it having their asset reduced to zero and it's quite natural for them to expect compensation. I'm surprised that the other plants seem to be so accepting of the shut down. Of course that may change, given the fact that this ruling is so recent. It has the potential for more claimants to recalibrate and lay suits against the gov't. One thing going for Merkel and her party,- they are a long way from facing election. In the meantime the electorate may just forget; that is of course if the issue isn't still raging at the time of that next election.
