I enjoy reading and listening to Mr. Treacy commentary which helps me in a number of facets of my financial decisions (I live in the UK).

Mr. Treacy has recently been commenting on commodity pricing easing as one of the by-products of early onset recession.

I have been wrestling whether to fix my electric and gas rate with current provider for 2 years (which is 52% higher than current price). Whilst pundits are predicting 65%+ rate rises Mr. Treacy’s comments suggest otherwise (commodities easing).

I would be interested in Mr. Treacy view on this matter.

Thank you for this question. It is a sign of the times that the savings from successfully deciding on what electricity plan to sign up for could pay for a subscription to this service.
