Also, for verifiability purposes and due dilligence, I can't find that CNBC anywhere legitimate other than SunContract facebook and youtube channels. Can you please link it from CNBC or another verifiable source? I'm getting the vibe that they just fraudulently put CNBC logo on their own interview.

Also after a quick Google search, the reporter Carlo Cerutti does in fact work for CNBC.

I will say that what you linked is something SunContract themselves post, so make sure to read it all with a grain of salt.
