ICE daily CER consolidated 2 Eurocents after falling 7.95% the previous day, closing at 0.83 EURO (+2.47%).  With constant new ERU and CER supply hitting everyday, the market remains significantly long.  We are now 2 trading days from the Kyoto Protocol conference in Doha, however any hopes regarding supply constraint decisions could take a long time to materialize.
