4Cast—Stumpage Price ForecastMill owners know their local markets. They know who’s selling and who’s on quota. They know who is scrambling to meet payroll and who has too much inventory on the yard. Historical stumpage market data on recent market activity helps, but it has limits. It’s tough to drive forward while looking only in the rear-view mirror. An even larger issue is that national and global economic factors increasingly shape local stumpage markets. Stumpage Price 4Cast connects those national and global factors to your local market to provide you with insight to make today’s and tomorrow’s business decisions. Build strategic plans on Forest2Market's 4Cast, a 24-month timber and wood fiber price projection. The in-depth knowledge of prices and the factors affecting prices included in the 4Cast every quarter will guide you as you make critical business decisions. The 4Cast starts with our our unparelleled data and runs it through econometric models that take over 100 local, business and industry factors into consideration. The 4Cast includes the Economic Outlook (see description above). |
