- They were visioning the future - Broadband trading. Did a deal with Blockbuster that was a pre-runner to Netflix.
- Energy industry lost its swagger when Enron collapsed.
- Note how despite the speed and size of Enron’s fall, Fed did not have to get involved, no systemic risk, no bailouts for institutions. Goes back to the point that energy markets have natural self correcting mechanisms + Enron’s fall had more to do with accounting/financing than the corruption of the markets they engaged with and created.
- Separate fact from myth. Why so many today owe their livelihood to the risks that Enron took to be successful.
- Ultimate first mover advantage. An aggressive appetite for risk.
- NGPA - removal of federal price controls at well head and FERC Order 363 unbundling gas supply from gas delivery. Without that no choice in electricity providers that we enjoy today.

- Enron online and the financialization of core markets of energy trading.
- The conflict of being a “super local” in the physical markets for gas and power. How they would push their market position and view of market positions.
- Valuing optionality of assets, securitizing them - meant that you did not have to own the asset to operate in the energy markets.
