Random Lengths Lumber Market
Report
Prices of framing lumber held to a firm to
upward path, as more buyers shed expectations
for further downside that recently followed the
February spike. Many traders reported finishing
one of their best first quarters in years, amid
a high degree of anxiety that stemmed from the
U.S.-Canada trade issue, timber supply
constraints, and transportation issues, among
others. A number of traders were out of their
offices, and the level of activity surprised
many traders.
