After the TACO trade, here comes the ‘Trump collar.' What that means for stocks.
Early action on Monday shows Wall Street starting the week on the back foot, as trade-war concerns once again dominate the narrative. This may come as no surprise to Charlie McElligott, strategist at Nomura. What on Earth is going on with the American consumer? My daughter's boyfriend, a guest in my home, offered to powerwash part of my house — then demanded money I help my elderly mother every day and drive her to appointments. Can I recoup my costs from her estate? My father-in-law has dementia and is moving in with us. Can we invoice him for a caregiver? 'I'm not wildly wealthy, but I've done well': I'm 79 and have $3 million in assets. Should I set up 529 plans for my grandkids? Known for his colorful stream-of-consciousness notes examining derivatives, McElligott taps the ever-expanding lexicon of Trump trades to tout the 'Trump collar' as a way to explain the latest market moves. A collar, in option markets, is a strategy used to protect against significant losses, but which also limits potential profits. Collars tend to be used when a trader is generally optimistic about an asset owned for the long term, but there's concern about short-term volatility in the market. The trade is struck by buying an out-of-the money put option (the right to sell a security at a particular strike price within a given time period) and selling an out-of-the-money call option (the right to buy a security at a particular strike price within the same time period). 'Out of the money' refers to when a call-option strike price is above the current asset price and when a put-option strike price is below the asset price. McElligott argues that investors should think in terms of a collar when they consider a market that is kept in a range by U.S. President Donald Trump's tariff rhetoric — a market that seems to want to trundle higher, but which is regularly knocked back by Truth Social posts. 'You all know 'Art of the Deal' Trump … and over the past month+, the 'TACO'-kind … but what it all adds up to now is the de facto 'Trump Collar,' as the market retrains the reaction function in the 'Human VVIX' era,' says McElligott in an email missive sent Friday. Readers will by now be familiar with the TACO trade. The VVIX is a gauge that measures the volatility of the Cboe volatility index 'VIX' VIX, and McElligott is clearly laying the cause of market vacillations at the feet of Trump. He presents the table below to illustrate just how much Trump — the 'Status Quo Disruptor in Chief,' as he calls the Republican president — has been impacting markets. McElligott says that, late last week, when the S&P 500 SPX sat only a few percentage points shy of February's record high, the stock market was in the upper band of its range trade because investors have come to terms with what the analyst calls Trump-collar 'reflexivity.' By this he means that traders are aware that a falling market, in response to harsh Trump trade talk, will subsequently be lifted by Trump's delivery of more soothing trade comments. But 'Trump then becomes re-emboldened' and talks tough again, causing investors to sell call options to hedge against declines. We see this happening when the S&P 500 moves back toward the 6,000 level, according to McElligott. Then in response to the 'Human VVIX' downside scenario — as Trump again talks tough — the volatility of volatility re-expands, and U.S. dollar assets trade lower again in unstable fashion. That once again 'restrikes the Trump Put, as his 'pain threshold' is hit in financial markets' and they rally back 'off the precipice,' he said. 'Rinse, repeat,' says McElligott. He says that, if a trader had bought S&P 500 futures five days after Trump delivered some of his fiery tariff rhetoric — the market had fallen in response — and sold S&P 500 futures five days after Trump pulled back from that earlier position — the market had then rallied — the trade would have resulted in a 12% return.

SolarBank Announces Bitcoin Treasury Strategy
TORONTO, June 3, 2025 /CNW/ - SolarBank Corporation (NASDAQ: SUUN) (Cboe CA: SUNN) (FSE: GY2) ("SolarBank" or the "Company"), a leader in distributed solar energy, battery storage, and clean energy infrastructure across North America, today announces it is implementing a treasury strategy integrating Bitcoin as a strategic reserve asset – inspired by MicroStrategy's multibillion-dollar Bitcoin strategy and SharpLink Gaming's Ethereum-driven strategy. To support this strategy, the Company has filed an account opening application with Coinbase Prime (NASDAQ: COIN) to provide secure custody, USDC services, and a self-custodial wallet for its Bitcoin holdings. This strategy unlocks multiple advantages including: Financial Resilience: by accumulating Bitcoin, SolarBank hedges against currency debasement and inflation, while enabling access to institutional financing. Clean Energy Off-Set: the renewable energy generated by SolarBank's portfolio of solar power and battery energy storage projects provides an offset against the emissions generated from the energy used to generate Bitcoin. Market Appeal: there is significant investor interest in digital tokens, blockchain, AI-driven analytics, and DeFi principles and this strategy exposes SolarBank to a new category of tech-savy investors. Competitive Differentiation: As one of the first-movers in blending clean energy with DeFi and Web3, SolarBank stands out among competitors, capitalizing on the renewable energy sector's growth and investor enthusiasm for disruptive finance. SolarBank's primary business will remain as a renewable energy developer and power producer backed by Tier-1 Partnerships and 1 GW pipepline. Recent milestones include: A US$100 million U.S. community solar financing partnership with CIM Group, targeting 97 MW of renewable power projects in the USA. A US$49.5 million transaction with Qcells, which is building a complete and sustainable solar supply chain in the United States, to deploy community solar power plants in America with cutting-edge "Made-in-USA" solar panels. A US$41 million clean energy partnership with Honeywell, deploying community solar farms to repurpose closed landfill sites in the USA. A $25 million credit facility from Royal Bank of Canada (RBC), fueling SolarBank's battery energy storage system (BESS) project portfolio to stabilize the electricity grid and reinforce institutional confidence in its recurring revenue model from ownership of long life assets supported by government contracts. Dr. Richard Lu commented: "As the adoption of Bitcoin continues to grow, SolarBank believes that establishing a Bitcoin treasury strategy taps into a growing sector that is seeing increasing adoption. In a world of ever-increasing energy demand and treasury complexity, SolarBank delivers renewable energy solutions and recurring revenues, now combined with all of the benefits of holding Bitcoin." With over 1 GW in its organic development pipeline and operations spanning Canada and the United States, SolarBank is scaling its portfolio of solar, BESS, and clean energy projects at a rapid pace. The Company generates recurring revenue through long-term PPAs with utilities, municipalities, and partners with Fortune 500 clients, all while driving decarbonization through ESG-aligned innovation. The actual timing and value of Bitcoin purchases, under the allocation strategy will be determined by management. Purchases will also depend on several factors, including, among others, general market and business conditions, the trading price of Bitcoin and the anticipated cash needs of SolarBank. The allocation strategy may be suspended, discontinued or modified at any time for any reason. As of the date of this press release, no Bitcoin purchases have been made. There are several risks associated with the development of the projects detailed in this press release. The development of any project is subject to the continued availability of third-party financing arrangements for the project owners and the risks associated with the construction of a solar power project. There is no certainty the projects disclosed in this press release will be completed on schedule or that they will operate in accordance with their design capacity. If the EPC agreements are terminated, then SolarBank will not realize the full contract value. In addition, governments may revise, reduce or eliminate incentives and policy support schemes for solar power, which could result in future projects no longer being economic. About SolarBank Corporation SolarBank Corporation is an independent renewable and clean energy project developer and owner focusing on distributed and community solar projects in Canada and the USA.

6.9 MW Brooklyn Project in Development by SolarBank in Nova Scotia, Canada
TORONTO, May 27, 2025 /CNW/ - SolarBank Corporation (NASDAQ: SUUN) (Cboe CA: SUNN) (FSE: GY2) ("SolarBank" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on its plans to develop a ground-mount solar power project known as the Brooklyn project (the "Project") totalling 6.9 MW DC located in Nova Scotia. The Project is owned by AI Renewable Fund and SolarBank is the developer and builder for the projects at a total estimated cost of with a total cost of $13.9M. SolarBank will partner with local Nova Scotia firm, Trimac Engineering, to deliver the Project. "As the project developer, we are excited to work alongside our local partner Trimac Engineering and the province's dedicated team to help bring clean, affordable energy to communities across Nova Scotia." Said Richard Lu, President and CEO of SolarBank, "With over a decade of proven experience in solar development and operations—including community solar, commercial and industrial installations, and other government-led initiatives—SolarBank brings the expertise needed to the successful implementation of Nova Scotia's Community Solar projects." The Project is being developed under the Nova Scotia Community Solar Program (CSP), the first CSP in Canada, supporting Nova Scotia's commitment to 80% renewable energy by 2030 and reaching net-zero by 2035. The program aims to add 100 MW of solar generation to the grid to help reduce reliance on fossil fuels, mitigate climate change and foster local economic growth. The clean energy generated by community solar projects feeds directly into the local electricity grid. Depending on the size and number of panels a community solar project has, renters, and business or homeowners can earn credits on their electric bill and save $0.02/kWh from the electricity that is generated by a project. So far, the NS CSP has only granted three CSP Contracts, totalling 7.05MW AC. AI Renewable won two Contracts, size of 6.5MW AC, as a result of the Company's solar development expertise. By subscribing to a project, community members can access the benefits of renewable energy without having to install panels on their building or land. With a secured site lease in place, the Company will continue to work to complete the permitting process of the Project. For the rest of 2025, the Company will complete the interconnection project with Nova Scotia Power Inc., lead in-depth engineering studies, and complete the solar design. Construction is expected to begin in Spring of 2026, followed by completion in the Summer of 2026. There are several risks associated with the development of the Project. The development of any project is subject to receipt of interconnection approval, receipt of a community solar contract, required permits, the continued availability of third-party financing arrangements for the Company and the risks associated with the construction of a solar power project. In addition, governments may revise, reduce or eliminate incentives and policy support schemes for solar power, which could result in future projects no longer being economic. Please refer to "Forward-Looking Statements" for additional discussion of the assumptions and risk factors associated with the Projects and statements made in this press release. The Company also announces a shares for services arrangement with an arm's length third party advisor (the "Advisor"), pursuant to which the Company will issue common shares of the Company in satisfaction of ongoing advisory services (the "Services") provided by Advisor (the "Shares for Services") pursuant to an agreement entered into on June 10, 2022 (the "Agreement"). Under the Agreement, the deemed price of the common shares to be issued is to be calculated using the closing price of the Company's common shares on the last trading day of each calendar month for the Services provided during such month. The monthly dollar value of common shares issuable is $35,000 USD. The Advisor also receives $35,000 USD in cash compensation per month. Subject to the attainment of certain financial milestones, the value of each of the cash and share consideration could increase to $100,000 USD per month. The Agreement has a remaining term of two years and 11 months, provided that it will automatically renew for subsequent one year terms. During any renewal term, the Agreement may be terminated on 60 days prior written notice. The services provided by the Advisor include introductions to strategic relationships, business development services, assistance with recruiting personnel, assistance with public relations, providing advice on financial and corporate strategy and advisory services related to potential corporate transactions. The Company has also agreed to reimburse the Advisor for all reasonable out of pocket costs, charges and expenses, including travel incurred in the performance of the Services.
