Spothinta, often written as spot-hinta in Finnish, refers to the current market price at which an asset can be bought or sold for immediate delivery. It is distinct from forward or futures prices, which are agreed upon for delivery at a future date and may reflect storage costs, financing, and convenience yield.
In many markets, especially commodities, energy, and currencies, the spothinta is observed in real time or over
Prices are determined by supply and demand dynamics, influenced by factors such as weather, outages, production
Spothinta is not a forecast; it represents the price at which participants are willing to transact now.
