Lucas and Luna examine how stagflation is transforming wholesale energy markets, using the latest data: the ECB's first rate hike since 2023, a 1.1% surge in wholesale prices driven by energy, and rising CPI at 4.2%. They focus on the structural shift in how manufacturers and utilities are locking in long-term contracts, drawing parallels to 1970s hedging strategies but with modern financial instruments. The episode includes a specific case of a German chemical firm that locked in fixed-price power deals, and what that means for broader inflation dynamics. Listeners learn why wholesale energy trading volumes have spiked 40% year-over-year and how this creates a buffer—or a lag—for consumer prices. #WholesaleEnergy #Stagflation #Inflation #ECBRateHike #EnergyContracts #CPI #PPI #Germany #ChemicalIndustry #Hedging #EnergyMarkets #1970sEchoes #Economics #Business #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #SupplyChain #CentralBankPolicy Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
