Exchange is the board. Yard cash is what the scale is paying, national average. Not a local bid.
Metals recycling
Copper is basically flat today at $6.59/lb (down 0.1%), but it is still up 5.0% over 30 days, so the bare bright guys keep asking if the bump sticks. Aluminum is $3,358/mt (up 0.4% today, down 2.8% on the month), which fits the week, decent day-to-day, soft trend. HRC steel is $1,203/st (up 0.3% today, up 0.7% in 30 days), so shred and #1 heavy melt keep feeling stubborn.
