| Random Lengths Lumber Market
Report
The tone of the framing lumber market improved with a late-week
pickup in sales. Light field inventories at many yards and jobs
needing coverage were two factors. A perception that prices didn¨t
have much more downside potential and mills¨ willingness to
negotiate on price and tallies persuaded buyers to step in and cover
needs. Most of the action was on Thursday. Many prices finished the
week lower, but they also bounced off lows for the week. The Random
Lengths Framing Lumber Composite Price fell $5, to $362.

Random Lengths Panel Market Report
The structural panel market kicked into overdrive. OSB producers
reported that they easily sold their highest volumes of the year to
date. Some large blocks were sold at discounts early in the week.
This primed the pump, and mills firmed quotes in the latter half of
the week. The Southern Pine plywood market roared to life Thursday.
Wholesalers covering shorts were among the first participants. After
the Northeast¨s winter storm contributed to a dismal start to the
week, the western Fir market sprang to life at midweek.
