Mercury NZ holds no seat in our index, carries no Closelooknet score, and has not been quoted in any edition; coverage so far is limited to the chart readings the diary tracks.
What the diary watches
The diary watches rainfall and lake levels feeding the hydro stations, since generation volumes and wholesale electricity prices move together with them.
