US Newsprint Continues Weakening
Print this article | Send to Colleague
The U.S. Newsprint market continues to weaken with more and more consumers reading their newspapers from the different electronic devices – or not reading newspapers at all, FOEX Indexes reports. Compared with 2010, it notes, shipments are down close to 10% and in early 2011, exports also fell, at least temporarily. The risen paper stocks at the producing mills are beginning to exert more and more pressure on prices, FOEX adds. The cost increases through lower volumes, risen energy and delivery costs, and from higher recovered paper prices have helped to support the recent price levels.
