RE:RE:40 Gigafactories by 2025, Wow. While I wouldn't put it at zero, you make a good point Mat, 2030 instead of 2025 seems more plausable, at least with our lense as of today. Having said that, HockeyStick graphs are hard to predict. China alone is experiencing a 6x growth from 2016 to 2020, as China vies to be the World's Premier battery producer (and I guess that leaves America as the Premier Coal producer 8^/ ).

A recent article came out that said EV's will reach price parity with ICE next year in Europe. That will be a sure-fire tipping point (or as the article describes it: "an inflexion point for demand").
