Quoted 282 today for nitram 34.5%. What's people's thoughts on the market. Buy now or wait???
Sounds cheap for Nitram,

Depends on your view of where the £vsEuro /£vs$ goes from here.

A significantly firmer £ will cheapen urea and lithan, (if global prices stay static) whether it will be in time for delivery though we wait to see.

General out look for next quarter on global urea is still firm, Iranian sanctions and bugger all coming out of China is putting supply pressure on North African supplies (our normal suppliers).

Thanks. Who knows where it's actually going. It could go either way due to brexit.

The main upward move has happened, in my opinion Brexit could alter prices by £10-20 just on currency though.

Edit:

Longer term, tariffs or no tariffs on imported urea could have a bigger than £10-20 impact. Especially on liquids imported from US. But who knows wtf the next few years have in store.

I was quoted the same for Feb delivery.That makes the urea I bought last week at £295 seem very good value, still wish I hadn't been big headed and bought it at 210 in July, you can't win them all
You did better than me Bought some urea this week for £304 nov/Dec del

They rang me today wanting to deliver
It, I only placed the order last Friday.

I ordered it because I'd heard whispers that there was a couple of boats due in and they wanted to clear some space and were offering a slight discount, could have been right as it's jumped 9 quid.
