After a review and consultation with the market, which ended on January 25, from Friday January 29 Metal Bulletin will price the Chinese APT export market on a weekly basis, rather than twice-weekly as it did previously.
From January 29, the frequency of publication will be changed to every Wednesday between 2pm and 3pm London time.
The new specification is therefore:
