Currently, US produces more than 50% electricity from Coal and coal prices are going up (the lowest price has appreciated more than 30% - in powder basin - from mid dec to mid jan). eia.doe.gov I'm assuming, transportation costs are also going up. As the monetary inflation continues, higher PPI prices are being deeply embedded in the economy!! I'm assuming, lot of power companies are signing long term contracts at higher prices... Once the recession hits, power companies might not be able to lower the coal prices immediately!!
