    If you want to be exposed to the movements of the wholesale market there are products out there that will let you do that, the Tracker, or Agile Tariffs from Octopus for example.

  • Agile was negative for about 4 hours yesterday during the day - would have been making money.

    Also trust me... energy companies rarely make a profit as they're all selling energy at bare minimum mark up.

    Also a lot of people are cancelling direct debits and not paying bills currently - less cash for suppliers for them to pay their bills - government isnt' going to give them any additional support - some suppliers will go bust and we may even see a domino affect
