Pulp Pricce Still Increasing

NBSK market pulp pricing is now $725/ton in USA. This price has risen very aggressively since September when list price was $620/ton. Many producers are beginning to announce yet another increased of $20-30/ton for July shipments. Over 2million tons of market pulp production was curtailed during 2005. Clearly, this is a seller's market! Uncoated paper producers will most likely also announce an increase given this new cost pressure.
