Its called demand and supply and in this case demand has outstripped supply, nothing more sinister than that.

Given the wholesale prices have risen by more than 57% over the last six months, I'd say that end users are getting a good deal although it does demonstrate how out of touch Spanish business is with the wider world given the government's intervention on pricing.
