Carbon Trading

The ICE daily CER continued to trade as a political option with notional pricing, adding 3 Eurocents (after losing 13 Eurocents over the four previous days).  It finished the day at 0.21 EURO (+16.67%).  The rest of the market remains beneath this price and ERUs are trading around 30% of this price.  Only a political decision to address massive oversupply can turn things around and it looks like such a decision is becoming a long-shot in the EU ETS.  In the meantime, too many ERUs and CERs already flood the market and more are printed every month.
