Prices continue to fall as western producers make push for eastern markets

摘要

No light is showing at the end of the tunnel in March for North American newsprint producers as prices continue their decline in both the East and West, contacts said. Sources said the primary reason for the drop is that western newsprint mills are shipping tonnes to the East because their markets in the West are oversupplied, while their exports remained hampered by lingering effects from the West Coast ports labor disruption that began last October.
