Commodity prices from Supply Management
These figures have been compiled from several sources and are intended as a guide to trends. SM disclaims any responsibility for the use of this information.
The London Metal exchange has replaced the plastics cash buyer price with a figure for cash plus settlement figure, based on buyers’ price and sellers’ prices. The historical prices now use the cash mean figure, which averages buyers’ and sellers’ prices, instead of the cash buyer price printed in SM at the time.
