New Mexico is in the process of deciding how to spend billions of dollars in federal infrastructure dollars. It is no secret that the needs stretch far beyond just our urban communities. Host Gene Grant and Pivotal New Mexico CEO Terry Brunner discuss a new report addressing the infrastructure shortcomings in rural communities and the systemic issues that continually stand in our way when securing funding for all New Mexicans. Until recently, Jeremy Vesbach was vice-chair of the New Mexico State Game Commission. In conversation with correspondent Laura Paskus, he talks about the commission's roles and responsibilities and about a controversial stream access rule in the state. Vesbach is the second commissioner Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham has removed from the commission, which currently only has four of seven seats filled. New Mexico is caught in the middle of an investigation into the 2020 election, and the January 6th Insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. Our Line Opinion Panelists react to accusations that several New Mexicans submitted fraudulent electoral college certificates declaring Donald Trump winner, despite Joe Bien receiving the majority of votes in our state. Was this a coordinated effort, and what could it mean for the future of the republican party in New Mexico?

The Infrastructure Report Card is published every year by the American Society of Civil Engineers. It sounds like something you'd get in school, but the big difference is that this one is abstract and subjective. But once engineers get out of school, the grading system is more like art class. Here's what you need to know. *** https://www.andyboenau.com/ (https://www.AndyBoenau.com) https://twitter.com/boenau (https://twitter.com/boenau) https://linkedin.com/in/boenau (https://linkedin.com/in/boenau) *** https://andyboenau.com/ (Andy Boenau) explores emerging trends that are altering How We Get Around.  You're scratching your head about electric scooters,   You wonder if bike share could work in the suburbs,  You feel bad that buses aren't used more, You have an opinion about autonomous vehicles, Your walking shoes need more wear, and You wish you didn't have to drive so much. Mobility freedom, equitable access, emerging technology, subscription culture, and traffic safety. We have a lot to cover.

The 2021 edition of the ASCE Infrastructure Report Card is out! It brings light to the current conditions of America's infrastructure by assessing different individual categories, from bridges to hazardous waste. As a civil engineer working in one of these fields, you should probably check this out. Therefore, today we'll dive into the main points of the report. This includes the many challenges the country still has to face, the recommendations on how to improve the infrastructure moving forward, and why this means that civil engineers will be needed MORE than ever before! What You'll Learn: What is the Current Overall Grade of America's Infrastructure? What is the Grade It Should Be Aiming at? What are the Different Categories Used in the Report?

Not a day goes by without someone reminding us that our roads, bridges, and other transportation facilities get a failing grade from America’s civil engineers. You probably know the grade, because it’s quoted in almost every story on the topic.We’ve heard people on this podcast talk about it. So we thought we’d talk to the people who issued it. This week, we explore the Infrastructure Report Card issued by the American Society of Civil Engineers, with Anna Denecke, ASCE’s Director of Infrastructure Initiatives.

It's no secret that infrastructure across the nation has gotten to ragged condition. What you maybe didn't know was that the burden of paying for it keeps sliding to local government. Why? And, more importantly, is there anything we can do? We dig in with guests national, state and local to talk about the infrastructure deficit and the tools municipalities can explore to trim it down. A recent report from the National League of Cities served as inspiration for this episode.

"HOPE IS NOT A STRATEGY" March_6_2009.mp3 "THE FEAR INDEX" The Chicago Board Options Exchange Volatility Index (VIX) is often referred to as the fear index. In this marketplace, "Hope is Not a Strategy", volatility can be an advantage. A high value in the VIX corresponds to a more volatile market. This means bigger price swings on your investments, and with hundreds of millions of shares being traded each day - having a focused and rational strategy may very well be the best investment you can make. Infrastructure is currently attractive. In volatile markets even the good stocks get cheap. Having a focus, such as infrastructure is key in today's investment environment.

INFRASTRUCTURE - AN INVESTMENT THEME FOR 2009 AND BEYOND   February_27_2009.mp3 - We believe Infrastructure will be one of the key investment themes in 2009 and beyond for several reasons: (i) Governments in the U.S., Canada and several other countries around the world have announced economic stimulus programs, with infrastructure occupying a central role. In the U.S., the economic stimulus program is worth approximately US$790 billion, (with infrastructure, including energy infrastructure, totaling approximately US$200 billion) and in Canada, it is in excess of $30 billion; (ii) The systematic underspending in infrastructure assets over the last three decades in the U.S. and Canada has resulted in massive "infrastructure deficits" reaching crisis proportions (in the U.S. it is estimated at US$1.6 trillion and in Canada at C$123 billion), making infrastructure spending imperative; (iii) The historically low correlation of infrastructure securities to other asset classes, offers the opportunity for portfolio diversification during a period of heightened stock market volatility; (iv) Greater participation of the private sector in the ownership, operation and maintenance of infrastructure assets (P3 or public-private partnership) offers greater potential to bridge the infrastructure deficit and spur growth in the infrastructure space; and (v) The potential for steady income and inflation protection from certain types of infrastructure stocks (e.g., pipelines, power generation etc). - Key beneficiaries of the infrastructure spending in the US and Canada include companies in the civil construction, engineering services, electrical and alternative energy, water infrastructure services and industrial products sectors. In anticipation of the impending infrastructure spend, stocks leveraged to infrastructure have seen price appreciation with large capitalization infrastructure related stocks in Canada rebounding from the market lows seen last fall and outperforming the TSX. - However, several small cap infrastructure related stocks have underperformed the TSX over the same time frame and trade at steep discounts to their historical trading ranges. We believe the overall weak market sentiment to the broader small cap space is the key reason for the weak relative performance of small cap infrastructure stocks. When market sentiment for this asset class (small cap stocks) improves, we expect small cap infrastructure stocks could rebound and for investors with a medium-term horizon (> 1 year), and the capacity to withstand volatility, small cap infrastructure stocks could provide solid returns over this time frame.
