    🏜️ Why oil fields in America's driest regions dispose of enough water to fill 1,400 swimming pools daily instead of reusing it in desert conditions

    ⚖️ The complex economics behind water reuse decisions involving treatment costs, transport expenses, mineral recovery opportunities, and earthquake liability insurance

    🔬 How produced water contains valuable minerals like lithium (30 ppm) and magnesium (1000 ppm) that could generate 40 cents per barrel in additional revenue

    🏭 Why data centers and industrial cooling operations in the Permian create new markets for treated produced water

  • The 3 Simple Numbers That Predict Any Water Stock's Future
    Jun 4 2025

    I analyzed 139 publicly traded water companies and discovered a simple formula that predicts their valuations using just three parameters: position on the "boring-to-hype spectrum," percentage of digital revenue, and percentage of recurring revenue. This formula reveals systematic market mispricing that creates 8-25% annual return opportunities by exploiting Wall Street's ignorance of water industry fundamentals. Wanna find out? Listen to this!

    In this week's episode:
    After analyzing 139 publicly traded water companies and uncovering systematic market mispricing, this water engineer reveals seven data-driven insights showing how water stocks trade at a 12% discount to the S&P 500 despite their defensive characteristics, with Asian companies undervalued by 50% and digital transformation creating 65% valuation premiums. The research exposes three investment strategies ranging from conservative "boring money" portfolios to aggressive geographic arbitrage plays that could potentially deliver 8-25% annual returns by exploiting Wall Street's lack of water industry expertise.
