Analysis by: Allan Durning, Executive Chairman,uk building materials outlook through to 2013 | www.apdltd.biz
Despite the recent comments about recovery and "green shoots" the evidence would still indicate that we have some distance to travel before the building material industry returns to the levels of volumes enjoyed in the period circa 2004-2007 pre the market crash.Strong performance in the RMI and Infrastructure markets will help offset weak demand in the other sectors.

Analysis by: Thomas Shewski, Owner,Coal Prices Crumble | www.forbes.com
Both steam and metallurgical coal demand are down. United States steam coal (for electricity generation) is down due to the economic slump affecting industrial demand and switching to cheaper natural gas-fired electricity generation in some areas of the nation. Metallurgical coal demand is down due to the crushing drop in steel production domestically and globally. Although coal demand is down significantly, it does not necessarily allow coal under contract to be excused for purchase.

Potential New Emissions Rules: Effect on Electricity Generation
April 27, 2009
Analysis by: Thomas Shewski, Owner,Central New York Rep. John McHugh Takes Aim at Acid Rain | www.syracuse.com
Some in Congress are using the debate in Washington, DC on carbon tax to also include additional limits on mercury, nitrous oxide (NOx), and sulfur dioxide emissions (SO2) from coal plants. Many proposals have been floated in Congress (one of which is linked here) to limit these emissions. If any of these proposals were to pass and become law, it will have significant impact on electricity generation.
