A<\/span> subject I feel is important to keep covering, despite the puzzling disinterest of the political and media class, is the extraordinary industrial growth that is occurring in the United States. There is effectively a massive \u201cstimulus package\u201d of spending going on, and best of all, it is being privately funded. For once, taxpayers are benefiting<\/em> from this vast \u201cshovel-ready\u201d stimulus, unlike recent government stimulus spending endeavors, in which money was simply redistributed from taxpayers to favored recipients.<\/p>\n

The industrial focus of this piece is the explosive growth in demand for natural gas turbines to produce electricity. This is heavily driven by the AI boom and the related construction frenzy of new, electricity-hungry data centers.\u00a0(RELATED: Good News, Bad Reactions: The Logic of Financial Markets)<\/strong><\/p>\n

But first, it\u2019s important to make clear that the industrial boom is not strictly related to AI and data centers. There is also massive re-shoring due to President Trump\u2019s tariffs and America-first policies that are making the U.S. a manufacturing powerhouse again. As I pointed out in a recent Spectator<\/em> piece titled, \u201cUnder the Radar of the \u2018Doomcasting\u2019 Media, There Is Massive Industrial Investment Occurring in the U.S.<\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\n
