On episode 69 of The Real Eisman Playbook, Steve Eisman sits down with Ben Callo, sustainable energy and mobility analyst at Baird, to explore what may be the most important and least understood constraint on the entire AI trade: the U.S. power grid, which needs to add roughly 30 gigawatts of new capacity per year over the next decade. Ben walks through his top picks in the space, including GE Vernova and Tesla, where the autonomous vehicle and energy storage businesses are the real long-term story despite years of Elon's unkept promises.
