SYP

Southern pine finally hit the brakes this week. After eight straight weeks of gains, the market has finally

flattened out.

#1 held onto small gains, up around $5 with the wide widths still doing the work. 2x10s and 2x12s came

up $10 to $15, while 2x4s, 2x6s and 2x8s were mostly flat to $5.

#2 actually gave a little back, slipping around $5 across most narrows. 2×12 was the exception and still

came up $5 to $10 on tight supply.

Low grade was flat to down slightly as buyers backed off the heavier volumes they ordered earlier in the

year.

SPF

SPF slowed to a crawl as well, up around $5 on average. 2x6s carried it again with $10 to $15 on the

shorter lengths, while 2x4s were flat to $5.

Supplies are still tight and Canadian mill downtime is keeping a floor under it, so prices are firm, but the

double-digit weeks have run their course. Studs also cooled, up around $5.

OSB

OSB mill prices held flat again. Demand stayed stagnant across the South with mills sticking to their

quotes and turning away counters.
