West Coast Newsprint Update
As of this afternoon (2PM EDT) three west coast suppliers have announced a $20/mt (30# basis) price increase for June 1st. Standard Newsprint only.
* NORPAC
* Catalyst
* Inland (Not a PAGE Supplier)
* We are waiting to hear from Resolute (Ponderay mill only). It will
not be a surprise if they match the other announcements soon.
There are no talks of east coast suppliers attempting an increase at this time. If that were to change we will update the group accordingly.
