Re: [MBZ] yellow grease price
Alcoa shut down their big Aircraft Alum plant. Chinee demand has tanked due to their artificial low prices and curtailed gummint-subsidized construction, there is a flood of steel on the market that is not moving. A local aluminum smelter is shutting down at EOY, 600 jobs evaporate, they say because they can't get a good price from the electric utility (state-owned) but also because subsidized chinee metal is killing them, which means they need subsidized electrons... --R On 12/14/15 9:59 AM, Curly McLain via Mercedes wrote: Scrap iron is down to a penny.

Re: [MBZ] yellow grease price
Folks yellow grease HAS a current price . friday in the midwest it was about 18.5 cents a lb (about $1.41/gallon) a year ago it was about 27 cents a lb I was talking to someone about buying 1100 gallons from me at $1/gal just to scare up some cash thanks, xx rick Rick Hawkins www.javaphoto.com www.javacycles.com LETTERPRESSES FOR SALE www.ricktheprinter.com www.letterpressmachinery.com This is the sheet I have followed for 8 yrs. It used to quote MO valley separate from the MIssissippi river Valley (IL) but no longer does. MO valley was always under the IL price. http://www.ams.usda.gov/mnreports/nw_ls442.txt YG has historically been several cents below CWG. It appears that perhaps the market is inverted between CWG and YG. Based on this: http://www.ams.usda.gov/mnreports/lswagenergy.pdf What I do know is that raw material sold for rendering that used to bring 6-7¢ is now down to a penny. The cost of rendering has gone down a little, but nothing near the % drop in the raw materials. Scrap iron is down to a penny. These prices mean demand has tanked.
