Uncoated Free Sheet prices in the U.S. remained flat in November, with the exception of 24-lb envelope, which rose $25-$30/ton, catching up with the $35-$40/ton hike on offset rolls last month, reports Marke Wilde, senior analyst with Deutsche Bank. These hikes were driven by higher pulp prices, slight pick-up in demand (October shipments -9.3% y/y, YTD -13.1% y/y), and slightly lower October mill inventories (- 0.8% m/m). Outside of the U.S., European producers have begun to announce price hikes for January 1.
