Carbon Trading

ICE daily CER price returned to range trading and improved to 1.57 EURO (+5.37%).  It was bound to happen after the recent thrashing U.N. offsets have received in the market, but with constant new supply hitting the market between now and the end of the year, and demand satisfied many times over already, one can predict continued cloudiness with more rain.
