Analysts expect coking coal prices in Atlantic Basin to approximate those on the Asian side

摘要

News of Atlantic Basin interest in U.S. coking coal, and the fact prices that have leaked have been relatively robust isn't a surprise, but it is encouraging, according to one international source. "I personally think the Europeans and eventually the Brazilians, because they have to come in (on a bigger scale) soon, recognize the strength of the Pacific and recognize they're probably going to be paying higher prices than they thought they were," the source said.
