NOx NEWS
Market Turned Around - For the first time in several
months, we can report that the NOx market has most certainly turned
around. After trading at low prices of $500/ton for vintage ‘99s and
$720/ton for vintage ‘00s, prices have risen, respectively, to $725/ton
and $975/ton at press time. In fact, over 2000 tons have traded since
the last market bulletin on October 5, 1999. Increased comfort with
PFC, compliance buying for vintage ’99 reconciliation, and dramatic
increases in compliance buying for vintage ’00, combined with seller
resistance to sell at lower levels, have converged to cause the price
upswings.
PFC Clarified - Prompted by Cantor Environmental Brokerage’ October 5, 1999 NOx Budget Market Bulletin, regulators
from Ozone Transport Commission States, U.S. EPA, and OTC elected to
hold a October 20, 1999 conference call to discuss the possibility that
Progressive Flow Control (PFC) may indeed be a reality in the year 2000.
Andy Kruger of Cantor Fitzgerald participated in the call. As a result
of the call, regulators worked to establish a clear explanation of PFC
to provide to market participants, so that market concerns could be
minimized and a clear, uniform explanation could be provided. The bottom
line is that PFC works as we informed you in our 10/5/99 bulletin. Please
call us: a) if you would like assistance in understanding PFC and how
it works; b) if you need another copy of the 10/5 Bulletin; and/or c)
to discuss how you can hedge your risk. Cantor Fitzgerald is proud to
have played a role in prompting these parties to get together to dispel
confusion that has impacted the market. At Cantor Fitzgerald, we work
hard to do more than be just another broker; we want to be your information
resource.

How is the MPI Derived? The MPI, in $/ton, is derived
by averaging the following:
1) the Best Bid - the highest price at which a buyer is willing
to purchase at least 5 tons of NOx Allowances.
2) the Best Offer - the lowest price at which a seller is willing
to sell at least 5 tons of NOx Allowances.
3) the Most Recent Trade - the price(s) at which NOx Allowances
have been agreed to be transacted (NOTE: NOx Allowances have not
yet been placed in Budget Sources' NATS Accounts, and thus trades cannot
yet be "transacted". Until such time, the "Most Recent Trade" represents
buyer(s) and seller(s) agreement(s) on price).
