There was a sentence missing from the rationale explaining that inputs from previous sessions were considered on Thursday, as to not depend on a single source proving 50% or more of the data.
The following paragraph was added to the rationale for MB-AL-0020 aluminium P1020A premium, ddp Midwest US, US cents/lb:
“Inputs from prior pricing sessions were considered in this current session to avoid a dependency on a single entity providing 50% or more of the data.”
The published price was unaffected by this change.
This price is part of the Fastmarkets base metals package.
