| Market Overview |
| Coal markets finished the week with some further bullishness as values rose across the main indices. Futures markets saw the API#2 and gC NEWC Futures see similar moves with the prompt gaining around $1.75/t on both hubs. Further dated contracts saw more gains on API#2 with the Cal'25 up $2/t whereas gC NEWC Cal'25 rose $1.25/t. Prompt API#4 saw gains of around $2/t. Physical markets saw a quieter end to the week although Nov'24 RB1 saw a number of improving bid-offer spreads through the day as values hover around the $105/t level. Tonnes do seem available but with the physical implied freight spread opening and closing around current levels there remains bid interest. gC Phys NEWC saw a quiet end to the week with values tracking paper while DES markets tracked paper. Elsewhere, European gas regained much of yesterday's losses as it gained 5% while oil markets dipped with front month Brent losing $0.40/bbl to sit at around $74.45/bbl near close of play. |
| From the Asian Desk |
| The Phys NEWC market still saw interest in December, with best index linked bid and offer seen at -$4.50/mt vs -$0.75/mt respectively. The Indo 3800NAR market heard a bid at $50/mt vs offer of $52/mt for an October supramax. The HA 5500NAR market heard a bid at $104.50/mt CFR South China. |
| From the Met Desk |
| Physical Premium Hard Coking Coal value adjusted higher today on the back of fresh trade reported for Nov loading PMV cargo. Volume of contracts traded on the SGX experienced a higher flow too, with Oct and Nov paper trading between $184.0 and $195.0. |
