From Polymarket today: Bernie Sanders proposes the government take 50% of OpenAI & Anthropic to give the public a “direct ownership stake.”
Maybe add shares directly to Trump's "children accounts."
One of the most discussed and often misunderstood aspects of the midstream world is the pipeline open season. At the most basic level, it is how pipeline developers go out to the market to test shipper interest and lock in commercial commitments for new projects and can effectively determine whether a project will get built — or not. The open season approach can also be used (in fact it’s required for interstate pipelines) to auction existing pipeline capacity or to give existing shippers an opportunity to turn back capacity, but most of the time the term refers to new pipeline projects. In today’s RBN blog, we’ll discuss the basics of open seasons.
This is the first in a three-part series on open seasons — how they work, why they matter, and what you need to watch in them. Today, we’re going to keep it at a high level and stick to what they are and how they’re conducted. In Part 2, we’ll zero in on natural gas pipelines and storage, including how open seasons for them tie into precedent agreements and certificate proceedings. Part 3 will dig into crude oil, refined product and NGL pipelines, where life as a common carrier with factors like proration, committed versus uncommitted service, and contract terms interact with the need for open seasons.
