Delayed publication of copper EQ premium, cif Europe

Fastmarkets published its European copper EQ cathode premium later than scheduled on Tuesday August 23, due to a reporter error.

The assessment for MB-CU-0411, copper EQ cathode premium, cif Europe was published at 16.17 London time, rather than the scheduled time of 16.00.

The Fastmarkets Dashboard and database have both since been updated.
