Hopefully consumption will continue to grow over the next several months.

To summarize, are you saying that inventories are below a year ago (which is good for producers) but they rose when they normally fall (bad for producers)? What does this mean for pricing? -----Original Message----- From: Causholli, Monika Sent: Thursday, October 18, 2001 8:27 AM To: Aguilera-Peon, Maria Teresa; Allan, David; Biggerstaff, Finley; Boudreaux, Jay; Braune, Carlos; Bruce, Michelle; Bruce-Jones, Tom; Bruch, Greg; Bryja, James; Carter, Karen E.; Conner, Andrew R.; Crane, Bob; Dimitry, Dirk; Ferrell, Daniel; Hernandez, Morela; Juvane, Danilo; Kabel, Jeff; Rickard, Craig; Robinson, Richard T.; Schmidt, Joern; Schube, Jonathan; Stapley, Cecil Subject: Utipulp stocks for September Utipulp Statistics for the month of September showed the following: Stocks were up by 1.2% and reached 1.1 million level Consumption went up 16% to 1.083 million This represents 31 days of supply. 2001 September stocks are 15% lower than last year.
