Inflation is currently moderating. Oil prices are down. As long as we keep throwing up new solar & wind, energy prices will go down. New sodium battery tech will usher in more EVs.

So, lots of good energy & inflation news.

We need that debt ceiling problem in the rearview mirror.

I suspect that it's much less consequential than being just the GOP outrage fodder of the day. They'll have something else next month and thereafter. More challenging will be navigating the *dynamics* of deflation in which crude (and natural gas) will likely go well >100 after bottoming briefly

That in turn will make EV/PV transition more difficult as investment wanes. The federal government will need to carry the burden, and that will be difficult as people's fears increase. In general, deflation is much worse societally than inflation. High inflation isn't easy, deflation is just harder.
