 Three Signals in the Energy Market Your CFO Missed While financial directors are busy tracking reports and exchange rates, the energy market is reshuffling the deck faster than anyone can notice. May 2026 is the month when the old rules stopped working. Here are three signals that need to be on the table right now. First — Brent has broken through $103 per barrel. This is not a speculative spike but a structural shift: the world has exited the "cheap energy" regime it has lived in for the last five years. The price has settled above $100 — and this changes everything: from logistics costs to production margins. Companies that haven't factored Brent at this level into their budgets are already in the risk zone. Second — the Big Tech paradox. Corporations like Google and Microsoft are investing billions in nuclear fusion and space-based solar energy, but right now their data centers are burning natural gas at record rates. The AI boom demands energy here and now, not in 10 years. This means demand for gas and oil will not decline — it will grow, and significantly. Third — Russia is increasing oil revenues despite sanctions. The world is restructuring logistics, but supply volumes are not decreasing — they are being redistributed. For European businesses, this means that sanctions pressure does not equal a deficit, so prices will be dictated not by politics but by the real balance of supply and demand.
