Energy prices jumped last week, and look likely to keep going up. The Beacon, 06/07/2021
The Headline: Last week finally gave us the higher energy prices we’ve been expecting for some time now, and fundamentals suggest higher prices may be here to stay for a bit. The 12-month strip price crossed above the $3.00 resistance point. Longer term trends – average storage, continued lower rig counts, recovering demand, and strong LNG exports -- point to higher prices being likely over the next few months.
The Bottom Line: If you don’t have a rate locked in for 2021 and 2022, higher bills are likely. We will want be ready to sign an agreement and watch for a market dip. Locking in 2023-2025 is also recommended to make sure you don’t end up riding a long-term price increase.
