Right! Here we are folks in the beginning of a healthy correction/bear market. What does it mean for the Carbon Market?
I want your views. What do you think? What types of influence do you see? List them for me in one-liners and I will publish them in the next weeks.
For example. With the coming lay-offs similar to what followed the 1987 collapse (Yes, i am THAT old) I expect quite a few financial market layoffs.This might bleed into the Carbon market as potential investment money might dry up. But in this example we can say that there is a major effect and a follow on. Namely, if investment money dries up, another 20 things can be said to be connected. So list them for me in this way:
I expect investment money to dry up and a lot of people will be laid off. (Feel free to use the first segment over and over again, i.e., "I expect investment money to dry up and (therefore) .."
More examples (actually based on my views)
I expect the issue of global warming will move further down the food chain because employment will take higher precedence.
I think that investment into newer technologies will suffer since companies will reduce R&D in favor of shoring up the failing share price.

Carbon trading is basically uncorrelated to stocks and bonds. It is inversely correlated to energy prices, which are sky high. If anything, the turmoil in the stock and bond market will cause more capital to flow into carbon trading as investors look for uncorrelated sources of alpha.
