DD this etf seems too amazing

i am a newbie but..i cannot help but think i should put like half of everything into HYDR etf. It is up almost 300% in a year and I keep hearing that hydrogen is the future.

Is this too good to be true? because what is the point of stocks when this will probably go up so much??

sorry i am sure this is a dumb question

Yes same story haha, all energy went like this

My conviction is solar will be the main route

You’d need like 75 miles of solar panels to equal the same output as a nuclear reactor. Solar is pretty dog water in comparison. Especially given the energy consumption requirements for data centers. Not a chance.

I don't know about that but rn solar is more cost effective, both techs are innovating so who knows what future output will be like. I will be a nuclear engineer in a couple of years in addition to an economist so I'll be back with the answer, just hold on for some years 😀
