Picture this: FF announces that it has successfully tested a p-B11 generator, and is gearing up to produce and license them to all comers.

As an existing or potential stock market investor, how much of your money are you going to leave/put in oil, automotive, transportation, or similar shares? If you own, say, $1M of Exxon, how much will it be worth tomorrow?

It would, of course, take years to build out the FF infrastructure to replace power plants and so on, but just knowing that oil has no future will hammer the value of MAJOR players on the world financial scene. Stock prices for many business types will plummet, and the “money” will have simply vanished.

When FF is proven, where would/will you/others invest?

FF-related stuff, of course. And electric utilities. Any industry that uses energy. Energy conversion: With sufficient energy, you can make gasoline from CO2 and waste water. Oil market prices will fall more slowly than oil futures, and consumption might fall very gradually. FF might save the SUV.

Unless it turns out you can fit FF into an iPod, fuel cells will be with us forever. It’s just that FF will be producing the cell fuel.

So, basically anything that does not produce, market, or make production equipment for many other forms of energy.
