Credit Crisis Spreads As Largest Texas Power Coop Files For Bankruptcy The Arctic blast and severe winter storms that pounded Texas weeks ago have claimed another victim as the credit crisis widens. Texas's largest power cooperative filed for bankruptcy protection in federal court in Houston Monday, citing a $1.8 billion bill from the state's grid operator, ERCOT, according to Reuters . According to court documents, Brazos Electric Power Cooperative, the largest generation and transmission co-op in the Lone Star State, filed for Chapter 11 in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas. The company said it could not pay a $1.8 billion bill from ERCOT stemming from a severe cold snap last month. Brazos and other utility companies who have committed to providing power to the grid were unable to during the mid-February crisis that left up to 4 million customers without power . This meant utilities had to purchase replacement power at extremely high rates, and some of these extra costs were passed on to customers.

Texas Grid Operator Warns Of Defaults As Credit Crisis Develops The Texas energy crisis has morphed from a power grid failure to a humanitarian emergency to a credit crisis as billions of dollars in power bills come due. According to FT , electricity retailers, municipal utilities, and power generation companies were purchasing wholesale energy during the crisis when rates surged to a cap of $9,000 a megawatt-hour last week, owe a whopping $50 billion. ERCOT, the state's grid operator, warns that some market participants have yet to post collateral to cover some of the bills as defaults begin. Kenan Ogelman, ERCOT's vice-president of commercial operations, said market participants who buy power from them have to post collateral as a down payment on energy purchases. He said some entities have "failed to deliver it." "Defaults are possible, and some have already happened," Ogelman warned. Due to surging energy prices last week and the week before, collateral requirements jumped for power buyers.

The First Texas-Freeze Casualty: Just Energy Implodes, Issues Going Concern Warning Just Energy Group Inc.'s shares crashed more than 21% in the premarket after the company released a statement about steep losses incurred during the winter storms that swept across Texas last week. Just Energy hit a record low ($4.05) in premarket trading since it went public in 2002… and peaked above $600 in 2007 . The retail energy provider specializing in electricity and natural gas commodities, renewable energy options, and carbon offset said it faces a $250 million (approximately CAD 315 million) due to Texas's latest "weather event." "The sustained high prices from February 13, 2021 through February 19, 2021, during which real-time market prices were artificially set at USD $9,000/MWh for much of the week, it is likely that the Weather Event has resulted in a substantial negative financial impact to the Company." Based on current information available to the company as of the time of this press release, the company estimates that the financial impact of the Weather Event on the company could be a loss of approximately USD $250 million (approximately CAD $315 million), but the financial impact could change as additional information becomes available to the company," Just Energy stated.

Hedge fund short sellers claw back FTSE 100 losses as fresh Covid uncertainty sees bearish bets rebound Submitted By Hugh Leask | 06/10/2020 - 12:53pm Hedge fund short sellers have rebounded with a GBP418 million (USD542.6 million) gain from negative bets against FTSE 100-listed companies – just a month after losing almost the same amount from wayward shorts in UK blue-chip stocks. Overall, short sellers made gains from more than half of all FTSE 100-listed companies (53 out of 100), according to new data from Ortex Analytics, with Rolls Royce proving to be the most profitable wager, bringing in GBP187.7 million for bearish managers. September’s bounce-back marks a reversal of fortunes for hedge funds betting against FTSE 100 companies, an index often seen as a bellwether for investor confidence. In August, managers suffered a GBP420 million hit after UK equity market gains sent many sizable short bets southwards. Peter Hillerberg, co-founder of London-based equity research firm Ortex, noted that four of the five most profitable shorts in September had earlier been significant loss-makers in August, underlining how renewed uncertainty over the Covid-19 pandemic has underpinned the rebound. “Last month we saw a number of big trades turn sour for short-sellers which impacted overall profitability in August,” Hillerberg observed. “At the time, we predicted that the pendulum may swing back the other way in September and that’s exactly what we’ve seen as short sellers continue to profit from the uncertainty surrounding the pandemic.” Among the big bets to pay off were International Consolidated Airlines Group, owner of British Airways, Aer Lingus and Iberian.
