Carbon Trading

The ICE daily CER continued to trade in range, falling one cent to 0.12 EURO (-7.69%).  ERUs are trading around 50% of this price.  Kyoto units are trading in low volumes on exchanges as market participants keenly await a (potentially disappointing) set aside vote for EUAs in the EU ETS scheduled for next week.  In the meantime, countries continue to issue ERUs and the CDM EB continues to issue CERs in the face of limited demand.
