COAL PRICES HAVE BEEN MOVING STEADILY HIGHER AFTER YEARS OF DECLINE
 COALspot.com: A rally in thermal coal prices over the past few months, after years of decline, is still continuing and it is expected to rally at least until early next year.
The world’s coal industry has operated under stressful conditions since early 2012 due to a combination of oversupply and sinking demand. After several years of coma, coal has been a surprise positive performer this year, supported by China’s new policy on its domestic coal miners. Today the coal is the top attractive and the hottest commodity in the world.
Coal prices were heading to North almost on a daily basis and producers were kept revising their prices to upward on a regular basis for Q4’16 deliveries as well as Q1’17 supplies. Coal miners should enjoy another quarter of solid gains in coal prices.
The current market conditions should be good for mine owners who are looking to sell their mines. For coal end-users Q3 and Q4' 2016 will be a difficult quarter, as prices continue to rise strongly in most of the coal producing counties.
The coal buyers were almost panic to see the current price trends and trying to secure the coal for Q4’16 deliveries at the best level.
Average CS 5000 GAR coal index (Indonesian origin) rose 0.96 % week over week, shows CS (i) Coal Index weekly closing figures.
