Character Outbreak?

Regardless of how the White House was reacting to this sudden situation, the global market had already responded.

The day after Everyone Daily reported on the demonstration reactor project, the global thermal coal futures market was scared sh*tless; everyone panicked and began selling.

What did a demonstration reactor mean?

How far away was China from controllable fusion technology?

There wasn't anyone that could answer these questions.

However, one thing was certain—China was a huge coal-consuming country, and it consumed more than 50% of the world's coal. If China didn't need so much coal in the future, who was going to pay for the coal they had in stock?

Even though everyone knew that this day wasn't going to come anytime soon, the futures market was about future transactions. Whenever investors lost their confidence in the future of a commodity, the downfall of that commodity was only a matter of time.
