The current prices on the European carbon market are as follows:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Carbon firmly broke 60 EUR level last Friday as a result of growing confidence in relatively low energy prices for at least this year. EUAs have not traded at such low prices since October 2021, when market firstly detected signals of potential energy crisis and soaring prices. Gas and power prices have been trending in downward trajectory alongside EUA, which has been the weakest commodity in the European energy complex. The only energy commodities performing well in current environment remain uranium, crude oil and its derivatives. Crude oil\u2019s resilience may be attributed to robust economic activity in the US which recently reported strong CPI numbers. This resilience might suggest that global economic activity remains strong, despite interest rate hikes during 2022 and 2023. Today, market participants yet again anticipated weekly CoT report, which offered no major surprises. Investment funds continued to increase their short exposure, reaching a historic net short exposure of 38 million tonnes \u2013 the highest in the history of EU ETS, since ICE revised historical CoT data. Despite substantial short exposure, market lacks the confidence to attempt a short squeeze, perhaps due to sticky bearish sentiment and belief that any buying activity could soon encounter large number of sellers. Despite intense selling pressure, auctions did not offer substantial discounts. Moreover, the last two of them cleared above secondary market, indicating that there might be some momentary interest to buy at current prices, which could exert some disinflationary effects on the economy.<\/p>\n
