Although demand was off in the eastern spruce lumber market yesterday, activity remained robust. Trader efforts centered around encouraging clients to buy items they did not necessarily want but the mills had to sell, and difficulty finding the things that clients wanted or needed but were not necessarily available in the market. Mill supply was either abundant in nature or limited as a rule. Soft prices kept mills guessing what to take for firm offers and clients hesitating to buy, if anything.
