Steady demand kept traders busy to end last week in the eastern spruce lumber market. Most Canadian mills were not participants in the action as a potential 25% tariff on their lumber exports sidelined them. They did not have the equipment to get available product across the border prior to the start date of April 2nd. Traders kept their focus on selling what they could count on, be it stateside inventories or with mills with no tariff restriction. It was a productive day for those that had the advantage.
