This is an infrastructure business and my prediction is that there are wires and cables throughout this country that do not meet the new standards of recently installed and to-be-installed new grid policy as the foundation of enery distribtion is brought on in our economy.

Costly infastructure improvements with not be decided overnight, but these companies realize that they want to particpate when the surge comes - and it will come.
